Installation Mounting Requirements 36 BXT6513-(0XX) DV15104.03 Issue 03 November 2016 2.3.6. Antenna Installation For antenna installation, refer always to the manufacturer´s maintenance documentation for the aircraft. Carry out the antenna installation in accordance with AC 43.12-2A Chapter 3. Penetration of the pressurised cabin on a pressurised aircraft requires additional data, which are not contained in this installation manual. Radiation risk: A safe distance to the installed antenna must be ensured by corresponding installation measures around human body damage (e.g. at the eyes) and/or avoid the inflammation of combustible materials by radiated energy. The picture shows a typical location for top and bottom antenna installation for Diversity Mode S transponder. Figure 5: Antenna Installation (Diversity) Transponder antennas should be installed as far away as practical from: • Other antennas, • Shadowing produced by other installations on the surface of the aircraft body, • Exhaust path of the engine(s), • Landing gear doors or other openings. • Check the skin panels for sufficient bonding before the antenna installation. • Separate the transponder antennas from DME and TCAS as much as possible (approx. 1.8 m or 6 feet as guideline). • Generally, transponder antennas should not be closer to the XPDR transceiver installed as 3 ft. Otherwise RF interference may occur. • Mount the main antenna on the bottom of the aircraft fuselage in a vertical position, same as the top antenna. Horizontal separation of both antennas should not exceed 7.6 meters (25 ft). • Follow the manufacturer´s installation instruction for the antenna to ensure achieving maximum performance of the BXT6513-(0XX). • If existing antennas on the aircraft will be used an inspection of the area between antenna and the aircraft skin is highly recommended to avoid negative effects of possible corrosion in this area. • On composite aircraft, add sufficient ground plane material.
