Service Manual 1.1 Maintenance Work

1 General Information

The descriptions and instructions in this Service Manual are intended as a work aid for the trained service
technician to help him to carry out repairs.
This Service Manual contains the service information for all antenna types that can be supplied. Each
antenna type is described in a self-contained main section, ranging from a description of the structure,
through technical data, service instructions and connection scheme, up to the lists of spare parts.
In the case of antenna types with a directly connected transmitter ("transmitter up"), the interface point is
the transition from the waveguide to the transmitter input.
You will therefore find the technical information about the transmitter in the manual for ATLAS RADAR
TRANSMITTERS.
Please carry out the instructions carefully; in particular, use the stated sequence when assembling.
The following maintenance instructions apply to all antenna types.

1.1 Maintenance Work

WARNING
Before any work is done on the antenna or in its immediate vicinity, the
antenna motor must be switched off at the gearbox (using the switch on
the gearbox casing).

- On the antenna, the V-belt must be examined for wear after every 1000 hours of operation.
- In the case of DC ship’s mains, the condition of the carbon brushes and the commutators of the DC
motors in the converters must be checked for burns and for irregular wear. If any dust from the
brushes is present, it should be removed, because it can cause a short circuit.

1.2 Prevention of Accidents Service Manual

1.2 Prevention of Accidents

Pay attention to the regulations for the prevention of accidents.


There is a danger of touching electrically live parts.
IMPORTANT
Pay attention to warnings and other notices on and in the units.

When the units are being operated live in the open state during trouble-shooting, obey the regulations for
the prevention of electrical accidents.
DANGER
When the antenna is rotating, there is danger caused by high frequency
radiation.

There are no international standards concerning the danger caused by high frequency radiation of the
kind produced by the radar antenna. In most countries, a radiation density exceeding 100 W/m2 is
regarded as dangerous; in some countries, values over 10 W/m2 are regarded as not being completely
safe.
This distances from the various antennas of the RADAR at which the radiation density is 100 W/m2 and
10 W/m2, respectively, are stated in the following table.

Distance
Antenna type
Radiation density 100 W/m2 Radiation density 10 W/m2
5 ft X-band 1.7 m 17 m
8 ft X-band 1.5 m 15 m
14 ft S-band 0.7 m 7m

DANGER
Never look down into the open waveguide while the transmitter is active!

DANGER
If the antenna is stationary because the system is switched off or
because the radar has been switched into Stand-By Mode, then unless
the antenna switch is set to 0 the antenna can begin to rotate at any
time.

DANGER
Even when the system is switched off, there may still be a dangerous
voltage present on exposed contacts. Therefore, before a unit is opened,
it must be ensured that the electrical supply to the unit is, and remains,
disconnected from the ship’s mains.

Attach a clearly visible warning notice stating that work is being done on the equipment.

Service Manual 1.3 Service Stations

1.3 Service Stations

If repair work cannot be carried out, an authorised service station should be asked for assistance if
possible.
Repairs under warranty should only be carried out by service stations authorised by STN ATLAS Marine
Electronics GmbH, Hamburg.
Ships operating in areas in which service stations are difficult to reach should carry additional spares
parts on board.

2.2 Functional Description

2.2.1 Drive and Rotation Signal

The drive motor B1 of the antenna is supplied with power through a three-core cable via the terminals 1,
2 and 3 of the terminal board TB1. For service, the motor can be disconnected from the electrical supply
by means of the switch S1.
The rotation signal is generated by means of a pulsor (an inductive proximity-switch) from a driven
toothed disk which rotates past the pulsor.
During each revolution of the antenna, 576 cycles are generated; these are used in the indicator in order
to display the radar picture in the correct position.
In order to generate the ship’s head flash, a hermetically sealed contact S2 is used; it is operated by a
magnet which rotates with the antenna shaft.

Service Manual 2.4 Exchanging Parts of the Antenna, Adjusting the Waveguide

2.4.2 Adjusting the Coupling Depth after Replacing the Waveguide

When a new waveguide is being installed in the gearbox, the height of the coupling pin on the array must
be measured and suitably adjusted.
The height of the coupling pin can be determined by measuring the distance (A) from the choke of the
waveguide in the antenna gearbox to the support surface of the antenna support.
The distance (A) must be 38.5 +/- 0.2 mm. It can be adjusted with the shim washers (0.3 washer: stock
No. 547-5183) in steps of 0.3 mm.
If a change in the coupling depth is necessary, the four hexagon socket-head screws (3) of the
waveguide flange must be undone after unscrewing and opening the sections of the casing. Furthermore,
the two screws (1) of the tuning block must be unscrewed, and the tuning block must be taken off. The
waveguide can then be pulled out of the antenna gearbox, and the shim washers (2) can be inserted to
give the appropriate dimension.

2.4 Exchanging Parts of the Antenna, Adjusting the Waveguide Service Manual

2.4.3 Tuning the Waveguide

The adjustment can be optimised by means of the tuning screw (4) on the waveguide (see Figure 2-6 on
page 19). Because, aboard ship, the only indication of satisfactory adjustment is provided by the display
strength of the transmission pulse on the screen in the 0.5 NM range, the following procedure must be
used after the scanner has been mounted:
- Waveguide installation lengths less than 3 m:
The radar can be started up; no fine tuning is needed.
- Waveguide installation lengths greater than 3 m:
If the adjustment is poor after switching the radar on (strong transmission pulse visible on the screen,
possibly with one or two rings), tuning must be carried out.
Screw the tuning screw (4) into the waveguide by a small amount. Undo the two screws (1) and move
the tuning block on the waveguide to obtain minimum transmission pulse; tighten the screws. Turn the
tuning screw (4) until the optimum result is achieved.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE
Do not turn the screws too far into the waveguide; a small movement
produces a large change.

NOTE
After new installation of a radar with an unfavourable, long waveguide
run, it might be possible to influence the adjustment of the entire
installed waveguide run by turning the adjustment screws (make a note
of the original position!).

The rotation signal is generated by means of a pulsor (an inductive proximity-switch) from a driven
toothed disk which rotates past the pulsor. During each revolution of the antenna, 576 pulses are gener-
ated; these are used in the indicator for the purpose of synchronisation of the radar picture.
In order to generate the ship’s head flash, a hermetically sealed contact S2 is used; it is operated by a
magnet which rotates with the antenna shaft.

- Unscrew the flange nut (7) and take out the pulsor.
- To install the new pulsor, proceed in the reverse order.
- Put the casing cover on.
- The distance between the pulsor’s end face and the pulsor disk should be about 0.6 mm. The
desired duty cycle ratio of 1:1 can be checked in the Transmitter Electronics Cabinet by means of
an oscilloscope of terminal TB 4/5.

3.4.5 Exchanging the Antenna Support

3.4.5.1 Removing the Antenna Support

The antenna support is fixed to the gearbox shaft by means of two clamping elements conical rings (2).
The forces are transmitted by pressure and friction between the working surfaces.
- The cone angle of the individual rings was chosen so that the joint comes apart automatically after
the flange screws (1) have been undone. If necessary, however, gentle tapping will be sufficient to
make the joint come apart. Do not use any tools to force it apart!
- When the clamping rings have come apart, by hand pull the support off the gearbox shaft.

3.4.5.2 Installing the Antenna Support

When mounting the antenna support, particular attention must be paid to controlled tightening of the
clamping screws and to the condition of the contact surfaces.
- All contact surfaces, including the thread and the head contact surface of the clamping screws, must
be clean and must be provided with only a film of oil.
ATTENTION: Do not use molybdenum lubricants!

- The parts are situated in the antenna support in the following sequence: clamping rings I (1) - spacer
(2) - clamping rings II (3) - flange (4). The flange screws (5) are inserted but not securely tightened.

Fig. 3-10 Installing the antenna support

- Push the support onto the gearbox shaft.


- Tighten the clamping screws (5) slightly and align the hub.
- Tighten the screws uniformly and cross-wise in three stages (10Nm - 20 Nm - 30 Nm) to reach the
specified tightening torque.
- Check the tightening torque of the screws in the order in which they are situated. Mounting is
finished only when each screw is tightened with a torque of at least 30Nm.
