  • Part numbers and options SAILOR 900 VSAT system The SAILOR 900 VSAT is a unique stabilized maritime VSAT antenna system operating in the Ku-band (10.7 to 14.5 GHz). It provides bi-directional IP data connections both on regional satellite beams and quasi-global Ku-band satellite networks. The system only requires a single 50 Ohm cable to provide the Above Deck Unit with both DC power, data and control information.

• Page 37: Site Preparation

  For optimum system performance, some guidelines on where to install or mount the different components of the SAILOR 900 VSAT System must be followed. It is recommended to mount the ADU in a location with as much 360° free line of sight to the satellite as possible while making sure that the support structure fulfills the requirements for the mast foundation.

• Page 38: Figure 3-1: Signal Degradation Because Of Obstructing Objects

  Site preparation 3.2.5 Ship motion and offset from the ship’s motion centre Even though it is recommended to mount the ADU high, keep the distance between the ADU and the ship’s motion centre as short as possible. The higher up the ADU is mounted, the higher is the linear g force applied to the ADU.

• Page 42: Adu Mast Design: Foundation And Height

  Site preparation 3.2.6 ADU mast design: Foundation and height The ADU mast must be designed to carry the weight of the ADU unit, which is approximately 135 kg (+ the weight of the mast flange). The mast must also be able to withstand onboard vibrations and wind speeds up to 110 knots on the radome, even in icing conditions.

• Page 43: Figure 3-8: Adu Mast Flange, Distance To The Welded Seam

  Site preparation Allow sufficient space so the nut is free of the welded seam and there is room for tools . Clearance hole for M12 bolts Figure 3-8: mast flange, distance to the welded seam CAUTION! Avoid sharp edges where the flange is in direct contact with the radome.

• Page 44: Figure 3-10: Free Mast Length And Bracing For A Tall Mast

  Site preparation Mast length and diameter The placement of the ADU must ensure a rigid structural connection to the hull or structure of the ship. Parts of the ship with heavy resonant vibrations are not suitable places for the ADU. A small platform or short mast shall provide rigid support for the ADU fastening bolts and a rigid interface to the ship.

• Page 47: Interference

  ADU performance. RF emission from radars might actually damage the ADU. The SAILOR 900 VSAT ADU itself may also interfere with other radio systems. Radar It is difficult to give exact guidelines for the minimum distance between a radar and the ADU because radar power, radiation pattern, frequency and pulse length/shape vary from radar to radar.

• Page 48: Table 3-5: Minimum Radar Separation, X-Band

  “d min.” is defined as the shortest distance between the radar antenna (in any position) and the surface of the SAILOR 900 VSAT ADU. X-band (~ 3 cm / 10 GHz) damage distance SAILOR 900 VSAT ADU Radar d min.

• Page 49
  Even at distances greater than “d min.” in the previous section the radar might still be able to degrade the performance of the SAILOR 900 VSAT system. The presence of one or more S or X-band radars within a radius up to 100 m may cause a minor degradation of the Ku-band connection.

  Site preparation 3.2.8 Other precautions Condensation and water intrusion If possible, install the radome such that direct spray of seawater is avoided. In some weather condition there may occur condensation inside the radome. The drain tube is designed to lead any water away from inside the radome. Make sure the ADU’s drain tube is open and that there it free space between the drain tube and the mounting surface so water can escape and there is ventilation for the ADU.

• Page 52: Installation Of The Adu

  Installation of the ADU Installation of the ADU The ADU is shipped fully assembled. You have to install it on the mast and attach the ADU cable. WARNING! Use a strong webbed sling with a belt to lift the ADU without damaging the radome. Make sure that the sling can carry the ADU’s weight (135 kg, 288 lbs).

• Page 53: Installing The Adu

  Figure 3-15: Free space for access to the service hatch The ADU does not have to be aligned with the bow-to-stern line of the ship. When configuring the SAILOR 900 VSAT you make an azimuth calibration to obtain the correct azimuth of the ADU.

D.1.2 Safety First of all grounding of the system is required for safety reasons.

• Page 174: Grounding Recommendations

  Grounding Recommendations Grounding Recommendations D.2.1 Grounding the ACU The ACU should be grounded to the ship/hull. For this purpose you may use a short ADU cable and a grounding kit. Further, the ACU must be grounded at its grounding stud in order to ensure proper grounding if the short ADU cable is disconnected. For further information, see Grounding the terminal on page 2-33.

• Page 175: Grounding The Adu

  Grounding Recommendations D.2.2 Grounding the ADU You can ground the ADU to the ship/hull via one or more of its mounting bolts. Make sure to remove painting, dirt, grease etc. at the mounting holes in order to make good electrical contact to the hull. Use serrated washers when securing the mounting bolts and seal the joint with protective coating to avoid corrosion.

  Separate ground cable Separate ground cable D.6.1 Ground cable — construction When dealing with electrical installations in a marine environment, all wiring must be done with double insulated, tinned, high quality and if exposed also UV resistant cables. This shall also apply to the separate ground cable mentioned in the previous paragraphs.

  Separate ground cable The ground cable must be connected at one of the mounting/grounding bolts on the ADU. Use bolts and washers of stainless steel and seal the joint with protective coating to avoid corrosion. If the ADU is to be isolated from the mounting base, shoulder bushings and washers must be used —…

• Page 183: Rf Interference

  RF interference Interference induced from nearby high-power RF transmitters might cause system failures and in extreme cases permanent damage to the SAILOR 900 VSAT equipment. If there are problems with interference from HF transmitters, it is advisable to mount ferrite clamps on the coax cable in order to provide suppression of induced RF. The ferrites will have no effect on the differential-mode signals but increases the impedance in relation to common-mode RFI.
