Safety summary

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of

operation, service and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply with these

precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety

standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the equipment. KVH assumes no

liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements.

Observe marked areas

Under extreme heat conditions do not touch areas of the terminal

or antenna that are marked with this symbol, as it may result in

injury.

Microwave radiation hazards

During transmission the antenna in this system radiates

microwave power. This radiation may be hazardous to humans close to the antenna.

During transmission, make sure that nobody gets closer than the recommended

minimum safety distance.

On the TracPhone FB150, the minimum safety distance on the

focal line to the antenna panel is 0.6 m, based on a radiation level

of 10 W/m2. The radiation level is 100 W/m2at a distance of

0.2 m from the antenna panel. Refer to the drawing below.

Distance to other equipment

Do not move the antenna closer to radars than the minimum safe distance specified in

Radar distance on page 7 - it may cause damage to the antenna. The equipment must be

installed with the following minimum safe distances to magnetic steering compass:

TracPhone FB150 terminal: min. 0.3 m.

TracPhone FB150 antenna: min. 1.1 m

Service

Access to the interior of the system units is prohibited - failure to comply with this rule

will void the warranty.

MICROWAVE RADIATION

No personnel within safety distance

60°

Safety distance:

(0.2 m, 100 W/m

)

0.6 m, 10 W/m

Do not service or adjust alone

Do not attempt internal service or adjustments unless another person, capable of

rendering first aid resuscitation, is present.

Grounding, cables and connections

To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and cabinet must be connected to an

electrical ground. The terminal must be grounded to the ship. For further grounding

information refer to Grounding and RF protection on page 56.

Do not extend the cables beyond the lengths specified for the equipment. The cable

between the terminal and antenna can be extended if it complies with the specified data

concerning cable losses etc.

All cables for your TracPhone system are shielded and should not be affected by

magnetic fields. However, try to avoid running cables parallel to AC wiring as it might

cause malfunction of the equipment.

Power supply

The voltage range is 10.5 - 32 V DC; 14 A - 5.5 A. It is recommended that the voltage is

provided by the 24 V DC power bus on the ship. Be aware of high start-up peak current:

20 A at 24 V, 5 ms.

If a 24 V DC power bus is not available, an external 115/230 VAC to 24 V DC power

supply can be used.

Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere

Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation

of any electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.

Keep away from live circuits

Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Component replacement and

internal adjustment must be made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not replace

components with the power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous

voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always

disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them.

Failure to comply with the rules above will void the warranty!

Introduction

The basic system consists of three units: The terminal, the antenna and the IP

handset with cradle.

TracPhone FB150 terminal

The terminal is the central unit in the system. It contains all user interfaces and

handles all communication between the BGAN antenna and the local

communication units (phones, computers etc.).

The terminal supplies 18-29 V DC to the antenna through a single coaxial cable.

The DC input for the terminal is designed for both 24 V DC and 12 V DC power

supply.

Note

The TracPhone FB150 terminal only works with a TracPhone FB150

antenna.
