1.1.1 Warning and Caution Statements

1.1.2 System Hazard Overview

Unclassified // For Official Use Only 3

Electrical Shock Hazard

When working on system equipment, operators should follow necessary precautions to reduce the chances of electrical shock. Refer to 1.2 Electrical Precautions for more information on specific guidelines.

Electrostatic Discharge Sensitive (ESDS) Material Hazard

Specific cautions should be used when handling and operating ESDS materials. Refer to 1.2.2 Handling ESDS Equipment for more information on specific guidelines.

Radio Frequency Burn Hazard

When operating RF equipment, precautions should be taken to prevent radio frequency burns. Refer to 1.7 Radio Frequency (RF) Hazards for more information on specific guidelines.

Fire Hazard

DO NOT operate the generators if a fire extinguisher is not present. During refueling of the generators, ensure engine is OFF and another team member stands by with a fire extinguisher. Fuel vapors can be ignited by an arc induced by a strong Radio Frequency (RF) field. RF energy can induce currents into any metal object. Personnel must be constantly alert to the fact that electronic transmitting equipment can cause hazardous voltages to be induced in various equipment and metal objects. For maximum safety, all transmitting devices should be off during refueling operations. DO NOT overfill fuel tanks.

Wipe up spilled fuel immediately with rags and spread dry sweep or sand on a spill area. Leaking oil and electrolyte are fire hazards that can cause injury or death. Upon detection of a leak, operators or maintenance personnel should stand by with a portable fire extinguisher until the problem is corrected.

Heavy Lifting Warning

Always use common sense when lifting and carrying equipment and equipment cases. Never lift heavy equipment alone. Transit cases and components may be heavy or contain heavy objects. Care should be taken when lifting heavy objects. Many objects require more than one person to lift them. Refer to

1.6 Lift Precautions for more information on specific guidelines.

Trip Hazard

Caution should be taken when setting up and operating systems using cords, cables, and outrigger legs that can present tripping hazards.

Motion Hazards or Pinch Points Warning

The antenna contains moving parts that are in motion during the acquisition and stow functions. DO NOT insert any part of your body into an area that may cause injury while the equipment is in use.

Battery Warning

The system uses components that require the use of batteries. Care should be taken to ensure batteries are not leaking any type of fluid prior to working on these components.

Explosive Material Warning

Explosive/flammable materials are a fire hazard. Store explosive/flammable materials in authorized areas only, and do NOT store aerosol cans, cleaning solvents, etc., near system equipment.

Unclassified // For Official Use Only 4

Cuts and Punctures Warning

Frayed wire cables may cut or puncture unprotected skin. Wear leather gloves when handling winch-wire rope. DO NOT handle wire rope with bare hands.

Hazardous Vapors Warning

Cleaning agents, aerosols, gases under pressure or various liquids may produce vapors that can cause sickness, injury or death. DO NOT expose yourself to prolonged contact with hazardous vapors.

Hearing Protection Warning

Wear hearing protection when working in close proximity to equipment producing high levels of noise.

Hearing protection includes earplugs, earmuffs, or headsets. Failure to wear hearing protection may result in temporary or permanent hearing loss.

Eye Protection Warning

Wear eye protection when exposed to areas that contain flying debris or other potentially hazardous conditions that may result in eye injury.

1.2 Electrical Precautions

High voltage is used in the operation of this equipment. Never work on electronic equipment unless there is another person nearby who is familiar with the operation and hazards of the equipment and who is competent in administering first aid. When technicians are aided by operators, they must be warned about the dangerous area.

Whenever possible, the power supply to the equipment must be turned off before beginning work on the equipment.

Take particular care to ground every capacitor likely to hold a dangerous potential. When working inside the equipment, after the power has been turned off, always ground every part before touching it.

Repair of electronic equipment is normally accomplished with the circuit de-energized. If at all possible, avoid making repairs to energized equipment. Repairs shall not be made on energized electronic equipment unless using approved procedures or permission to perform such a repair has been granted by the commanding officer. In such an emergency, the repair of energized circuits shall be accomplished by trained personnel and supervised by an experienced technician or officer. Every care shall be taken to observe the safety precautions.

Operating personnel must observe all safety regulations at all times. DO NOT replace components or make adjustments inside the equipment when high voltage is being supplied to the system. Under certain conditions, dangerous potentials may still exist even when the main power supply is turned off. Capacitors retain extremely high charges even when power is not being supplied to them. To avoid casualties, always disable power, and discharge and ground any circuit before touching it.

Be careful not to contact high-voltage connections or 115 VAC input connectors when installing or operating this equipment. Whenever the nature of the operation permits, keep one hand away from the equipment to reduce the hazard of current flowing through the body. Do not be misled by the term “low voltage.” Potentials as low as 50V may cause death under adverse conditions.

1.2.1 Guidelines for Operating Electrical Equipment

Unclassified // For Official Use Only 5

Certain assemblies and components will be damaged by seemingly undetectable electrostatic discharge. Care must be exercised when handling, repairing, or working on equipment associated with these items. Use ESDS precautionary procedures in accordance with Military Standard 1686 (MIL-STD-1686), Military Standard:

Electrostatic Discharge Control Program for Protection of Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies, and Equipment.

Electrostatic charges are generated by the relative motion between materials or by flow of liquids, vapors, or gases.

Common ESDS sources include personnel, items made of plain plastics, and processing equipment. ESDS parts can be damaged by direct contact with a charged source; they can also be damaged by charges induced by an electrostatic field. ESDS parts include microcircuits, discrete semiconductors, thick and thin film resistors, integrated circuit chips, and hybrid devices.

When handling ESDS items, a skin-contact wrist, leg or ankle ground strap should be worn. In addition, a long-sleeve protective shirt and close fitting, short-sleeve shirts or blouses should be worn. The wrist and foot straps dissipate static charges and equalize static levels with work surface static levels.

When handling ESDS parts, take the following precautions:

• Before touching an ESDS item, attach a personnel wrist, leg or ankle ground strap and connect the other end to an equipment or chassis ground.

• After removing an ESDS item, immediately place the item in an ESD protective envelope or package.

• Before opening an ESD protective package, ground the package to the equipment chassis to dissipate any accumulated charge on the package.

• Open the package at the connector end of the enclosed item, if possible.

• Remove the ESDS item from the ESD protective package and install the item into the equipment without touching parts, electrical terminals, and circuitry.

• Perform all other required actions before removing the personnel ground strap, including tightening of fasteners and replacement of covers. If the ground strap is not worn, touch the grounded equipment chassis before each action.

When an adult is the victim of electrical shock, the following steps should be performed:

STEP 1 DO NOT try to pull or grab the individual.

STEP 2 Send for help as soon as possible.

STEP 3 If possible, turn off the electrical power.

STEP 4 If you cannot turn off the electrical power, pull, push or lift the person to safety using a wooden pole, rope or some nonconductive material.

Personnel working with or near high voltages should be familiar with modern methods of resuscitation. When an adult stops breathing, check the victim for responsiveness. If there is no response, call 911 or local medical authorities and return to the victim. In most locations, the emergency dispatcher can assist you with Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) instructions.

Performance of these techniques by uncertified personnel could result in further injury or death to the victim.

Follow these electronic guidelines during operation and maintenance of the equipment to ensure personnel safety and health and to protect equipment from damage:

• Provide warning signs and suitable guards to prevent personnel from coming into accidental contact with dangerous voltages.

• Only reach into or enter energized electronics equipment enclosures for the purpose of servicing or adjusting when prescribed by applicable technical manuals or other approved documentation. This can only be accomplished with the immediate presence of another person capable of securing power and rendering adequate aid in the event of an emergency.

• Removal of a unit or part from the normal location within an assembly and the energizing of the unit or part while it is outside the normal enclosures, removes the protection features such as interlocks, grounds, and enclosures.

Since these safety features no longer exist, take special precautions and safety measures.

• Ground the chassis and frame of all units removed for servicing. Ground all circuits normally grounded in operation whenever power is applied to the unit.

• Adhere to all Lock Out/Tag Out requirements. DO NOT energize any equipment that is tagged-out. Properly clear the Tag Out first.

• Use insulated rubber mats and rubber gloves when performing preventive or corrective maintenance on energized electronic equipment.

• Only perform preventive or corrective maintenance on energized electronic equipment when duty-authorized personnel are available.

• Before touching a conductor or electronic component, verify that it has been de-energized by using a voltage tester or an approved shorting probe.

• Never defeat an interlock or built-in safety device. Modify such safeguard circuits only as authorized by the cognizant Systems Command.

• Perform periodic preventive maintenance tests and inspections to ensure proper operation of these devices/circuits.

• Personnel working with or near dangerous voltages must be trained in modern methods of resuscitation.

• Only operate the components from the type of power source indicated on the unit or as specified in the operating instructions.

• Never touch non-insulated wires or terminals unless they have been disconnected.

• Under no circumstances will a person operate or maintain equipment without the immediate presence or assistance of another person capable of rendering aid.

• Be careful not to contact high-voltage connections or 115 Volts Alternating Current (VAC) input connections when installing or operating this equipment.

• Whenever the nature of the operation permits, keep one hand away from the equipment to reduce the hazard of current flowing through the body.

1.3 Grounding Equipment

Contact local authorities to ensure no underground obstruction, such as buried electrical cables and/or water pipes, are in the area prior to digging or driving electrical grounding rods into the ground.

Eye protection should be worn when driving grounding rods. Failure to observe this warning could result in eye injury from metal splinters that may break away from the striking plate.

To prevent injury to personnel and damage to equipment, the equipment must be grounded to a suitable ground in a fixed structure. The impedance of the ground must not exceed 10 Mega-Ohms. Normal grounding-braid wire must be connected between each module and then to a ground rod or suitable facility ground.

The system contains static-sensitive electronics. Grounding straps and/or grounding rods provided with the system are the preferred method for grounding. If the system does not come with grounding equipment, use the local grounding system. This grounding method should be compliant to MIL-STD 188-124B, Grounding, Bonding, and Shielding. For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the anti-static strap, which should be between 1 to 10 Mega-Ohms. Also, ensure the work area is properly grounded. To minimize component damage by electrostatic discharge, handle modules only after properly discharging static electricity.

1.4 Power Precautions

When working with or near power, take the following precautions:

• The system will use available military and/or commercial power. In general, at forward-deployed locations, local power is most desirable, if available and stable. Otherwise, generator power should be used.

• DO NOT service or adjust equipment alone. Under no circumstances should any person attempt to service or adjust equipment except in the presence of someone who is capable of rendering aid.

1.5 Site Precautions

When selecting a site, take the following precautions:

• The baseband must be set up within a building or shelter that provides adequate space and environmental protection.

• To avoid the danger of system failure, the baseband should not be exposed to extreme environmental conditions such as blowing dirt or sand, rain, snow, etc.

• Refer to the Site Selection section of this O&M manual for additional site precautions.

1.7 Radio Frequency (RF) Hazards

Dangerous RF power levels exist on and around antennas during operation. Therefore, a safety zone should be established around any Satellite Communications (SATCOM) device. RF electromagnetic radiation can cause serious burns and injury.

The RF Warning Sticker located on the antenna contains the table for calculating the Radio Frequency Radiation (RFR) hazard zone boundary by using antenna elevation angles (+degrees) and RFR hazard zone boundary distances. See Table 2.

Table 2 RF Radiation Hazard Boundary Calculations

Antenna Elevation Angle Hazard Zone Size

≤12º 7.0 m

13º 6.5 m

14º- 15º 5.5 m

16º- 17º 5.0 m

18º- 19º 4.5 m

20º- 21º 4.0 m

22º- 25º 3.5 m

26º- 29º 3.0 m

30º- 34º 2.5 m

>34º 2.0 m

DO NOT stand in the direct path of the antenna when power is on.

DO NOT disconnect, repair or replace the silver Transmit (TX) cable while power is on.

Because of RF Hazards, a safety zone should be established around the antenna. This safety zone should extend beyond the front of the Feed Horn and extend in an arc to 90 degrees in a center line on either side of the Feed Horn. The safety zone should be marked off to prevent others from entering the area. The area exposed to the main antenna beam must be free of elevated structures up to a range of 10 m from the antenna.

The hazardous distance that radiation emits from the antenna is determined by the elevation level of the antenna.

The lower the elevation, the further the radiation hazard area extends.

Ensure no power is running to the antenna before working on the antenna or any of the antenna connectors. Do NOT work on antenna cables or waveguides while power is on. Lethal high voltages exist within antenna transmission lines and on exposed transmitter antenna connections.

Transmitter cables should be disconnected, and transmitters should be tagged to prevent operation of the antenna system when performing setup, tear down, or maintenance.
