UHF Analog Driver/Transmitter Chapter 3, Site Considerations, Installation and Setup Procedures Chapter 3 Site Considerations, Installation and Setup Procedures There are special considerations that need to be taken into account before the Innovator LX Series analog driver/transmitter can be installed. For example, if the installation is completed during cool weather, a heat-related problem may not surface for many months, suddenly appearing during the heat of summer. This section provides planning information for the installation and set up of the driver/transmitter. 40° F to 70° F throughout the year, reasonably low humidity, and a dust-free room. It should be noted that this is rarely if ever attainable in the real world. However, the closer the environment is to this design, the greater the operating capacity of the transmitter. The fans are designed and built into the transmitter will remove the heat from within the modules, but additional means are required for removing this heat from the building. To achieve this, a few issues need to be resolved. The first step is to determine the amount of heat to be removed from the transmitter room. There are generally three sources of heat that must be considered. The first and most obvious is the heat from the transmitter itself. This amount can be determined for a 100W transmitter by subtracting the average power to the antenna (69.5 watts) from the AC input power (675 watts) and taking this number in watts (605.5) and then multiplying it by 3.41. This gives a result of 2,065, the BTUs to be removed every hour. 12,000 BTUs per hour equals one ton. Therefore, a 1/4-ton air conditioner will cool a 100W transmitter. 3.1 Site Considerations The transmitter requires an AC input line of 117 VAC/220 VAC @ 5 amps for the 10W transmitter and driver or 117 VAC/220 VAC @ 10 amps for the 100W Transmitter. The transmitter is factory set for 110 VAC or 230 VAC operation. The LX Series Analog Transmitters are designed and built to provide long life with a minimum of maintenance. The environment in which they are placed is important and certain precautions must be taken. The three greatest dangers to the transmitter are heat, dirt, and moisture. Heat is usually the greatest problem, followed by dirt, and then moisture. Over-temperature can cause heat-related problems such as thermal runaway and component failure. Each amplifier module in the transmitter contains a thermal interlock protection circuit that will shut down that module until the temperature drops to an acceptable level. The second source of heat is other equipment in the same room. This number is calculated in the same way as the equation for BTUs. The third source of heat is equally obvious but not as simple to calculate. This is the heat coming through the walls, roof, and windows on a hot summer day. Unless the underside is exposed, the floor is usually not a problem. Determining this number is usually best left up to a qualified HVAC technician. There are far too many variables to even estimate this number without reviewing the detailed drawings of the site that show all of the construction details. The sum of these three sources is the bulk of the heat that must be removed. There may be other A suitable environment for the transmitter can enhance the overall performance and reliability of the transmitter and maximize revenues by minimizing downtime. A properly designed facility will have an adequate supply of cool, clean air, free of airborne particulates of any kind, and no excessive humidity. An ideal environment will require temperature in the range of LX Series, Rev. 0 3-1 UHF Analog Driver/Transmitter Chapter 3, Site Considerations, Installation and Setup Procedures sources of heat, such as personnel, and all should be taken into account. Now that the amount of heat that must be removed is known, the next step is to determine how to accomplish this. The options are air conditioning, ventilation, or a combination of the two. Air conditioning is always the preferred method and is the only way to create anything close to an ideal environment. Ventilation will work quite well if the ambient air temperature is below 100° F, or about 38° C, and the humidity is kept at a reasonable level. In addition, the air stream must be adequately filtered to ensure that no airborne particulates of any kind will be carried into the transmitter. The combination of air conditioning for summer and ventilation during the cooler months is acceptable when the proper cooling cannot be obtained through the use of ventilation alone and using air conditioning throughout the year is not feasible. Caution: The use of air conditioning and ventilation simultaneously is not recommended. This can cause condensation in the transmitters. 2. Do not have the air conditioner blowing directly onto the transmitter. Under certain conditions, condensation may occur on, or worse in, the transmitter. 3. Do not separate the front of the transmitter from the back with the thought of air conditioning only the front of the unit. Cooling air is drawn in at the front of all transmitters and in the front and back of others. Any attempt to separate the front of the transmitter from the rear of the unit will adversely affect the flow of cooling air. 4. Interlocking the transmitter with the air conditioner is recommended to keep the transmitter from operating without the necessary cooling. 5. The periodic cleaning of all filters is a must. When using ventilation alone, the following general statements apply: 1. The blower, with attendant filters, should be on the inlet, thereby pressurizing the room and preventing dirt from entering the transmitter. 2. The inlet and outlet vents should be on the same side of the building, preferably the leeward side. As a result, the pressure differential created by wind will be minimized. Only the outlet vent may be released through the roof. 3. The inlet and outlet vents should be screened with 1/8-inch hardware cloth (preferred) or galvanized hardware cloth (acceptable). 4. Cooling air should enter the room as low as practical but in no case The following precautions should be observed regarding air conditioning systems: 1. Air conditioners have an ARI nominal cooling capacity rating. In selecting an air conditioner, do not assume that this number can be equated to the requirements of the site. Make certain that the contractor uses the actual conditions that are to be maintained at the site in determining the size of the air conditioning unit. With the desired conditioned room temperature under 80° F, the unit must be derated, possibly by a substantial amount. LX Series, Rev. 0 3-2 UHF Analog Driver/Transmitter Chapter 3, Site Considerations, Installation and Setup Procedures higher than four feet above the floor. The inlet must be located where dirt, leaves, snow, etc., will not be carried in with the cooling air. 5. The exhaust should be located as high as possible. Some ducting is usually required to insure the complete flushing of heated air with no stagnant areas. 6. The filter area must be large enough to insure a maximum air velocity of 300 feet per minute through the filter. This is not a conservative number but a neverexceed number. In a dusty or remote location, this number should be reduced to 150 CFM. 7. The inlet and outlet(s) must have automatic dampers that close any time the ventilation blower is off. 8. In those cases in which transmitters are regularly off for a portion of each day, a temperature-differential sensor that controls a small heater must be installed. This sensor will monitor inside and outside temperatures simultaneously. If the inside temperature falls to within 5° F of the outside temperature, the heater will come on. This will prevent condensation when the ventilation blower comes on and should be used even in the summer. 9. A controlled-air bypass system must be installed to prevent the temperature in the room from falling below 40° F during transmitter operation. 10. The blower should have two speeds, which are thermostatically controlled, and be interlocked with the transmitter. LX Series, Rev. 0 11. The blower on high speed must be capable of moving the required volume of air into a half inch of water pressure at the required elevation. The free air delivery method must not be used. 12. Regular maintenance of the filters, if used, can not be overemphasized. 13. Above 4000 feet, for external venting, the air vent on the cabinet top must be increased to an 8-inch diameter for a 1-kW transmitter and to a 10-inch diameter for 5-kW and 6-kW transmitters. An equivalent rectangular duct may be used but, in all cases, the outlet must be increased by 50% through the outlet screen. 14. It is recommended that a site plan be submitted to Axcera for comments before installation begins. In calculating the blower requirements, filter size, and exhaust size, if the total load is known in watts, 2000 CFM into ½ inch of water will be required for each 5000 watts. If the load is known in BTUs, 2000 CFM into ½ inch of water will be required for each 17,000 BTUs. The inlet filter must be a minimum of seven square feet, larger for dusty and remote locations, for each 5000 watts or 17,000 BTUs. The exhaust must be at least four square feet at the exhaust screen for each 5000 watts or 17,000 BTUs. The information presented in this section is intended to serve only as a general guide and may need to be modified for unusually severe conditions. A combination of air conditioning and ventilation should not be difficult to design (see Figure 3-1). System interlocking and thermostat settings should be reviewed with Axcera. As with any equipment installation, it is 3-3 UHF Analog Driver/Transmitter Chapter 3, Site Considerations, Installation and Setup Procedures always good practice to consult the manufacturer when questions arise. Axcera can be contacted at (724) 8738100. Figure 3-1. 1 kW Minimum Ventilation Configuration 3.2 Unpacking the Chassis w/modules, bandpass and trap filters The modules are mounted to the chassis assembly with slides that are on the top and the bottom of the modules. There are two thumb screws on the front panel that hold each of the modules in place. Thoroughly inspect the chassis with modules and all other materials upon their arrival. Axcera certifies that upon leaving our facility the equipment was undamaged and in proper working order. The shipping containers should be inspected for obvious damage that indicates rough handling. 3.3 Installing the Chassis w/modules and filters The chassis assembly is made to mount in a standard 19” rack. The chassis assembly mounts using the four #10 clearance mounting holes on the ends. The chassis should be positioned; to provide adequate air intake into the front and the air exhaust of the fan in the rear; the ability to slide the modules out for replacement purposes; the installation of the bandpass filter and trap filter; the coupler assembly; and output transmission line. The chassis or cabinet in which it is mounted should be grounded using copper strapping material. Remove the chassis and modules, along with bandpass filter and trap Filter, from the crates and boxes. Check for dents and scratches or broken connectors, switches, display, or connectors. Any claims against in-transit damage should be directed to the carrier. Inform Axcera as to the extent of any damage as soon as possible. LX Series, Rev. 0 3-4 UHF Analog Driver/Transmitter Chapter 3, Site Considerations, Installation and Setup Procedures NOTE: To pull out the power amplifier module for replacement purposes, the input and output coaxial cables must first be removed from the rear of the chassis assembly. Connect the bandpass filter and trap filter to the output of the chassis assembly. Figure 3-2. Front and Rear View Reconnection Drawing Connect the transmission line for the antenna system to the output of the trap filter. A BNC sample jack of the output on the trap filter can be used for test purpose. This completes the unpacking and installation of the LX Series UHF television transmitter. Refer to the setup and operation procedures that follow before applying power to the transmitter. 3.4 AC Input 3.5 Setup and Operation The Exciter/Amplifier chassis assembly needs an AC outlet in which to plug, of 115 or 230 VAC, as set at the factory, at 5 amps for the 10W and driver or 10 amps for the 100W transmitter. Initially, the transmitter should be turned on with the RF output at the Trap Filter terminated into a dummy load of 10W or 100W depending on the power rating of the transmitter. If a load is not available, check that the output of the trap filter is connected to the antenna for your system. When the AC power cord for the exciter/amplifier chassis is plugged in, the AC is always connected to the transmitter. 3.5.1 Input Connections The input connections to the transmitter are to the rear of the Chassis Assembly for the transmitter or to the receiver tray in a translator. Once the chassis and output connections are in place, the AC cord from the chassis can plug into an AC outlet, 110 or 220 VAC as configured at the factory, of 5 Amps for the 10W transmitter and driver or 10 Amps for the 100W transmitter.
