Heating and Cooling Requirements
The environment’s temperature will contribute greatly to the length of the power amplifier’s life.
Technalogix recommends that the building’s filtered air intake must have capacity for all air-flow in
the building plus an additional 20%. The TAV-2000 uses (10) ball bearing fans – (4) for each power
amplifier, (1) for the power supply enclosure, and (1) for the combiner. Keep the intake below the
roofline to avoid intake of solar heated air. Please ensure that the intake and exhaust areas are on
the same side of the building to avoid pressure differentials during windy conditions. Also, do not
position intake near exhaust’s preheated air. If air conditioning is required to cool the shelter,
discuss the situation with a qualified HVAC technician. Under average conditions, 12,000 BTUs will
cool approximately 500 square feet to a comfortable level.
