ANTENNA PRODUCTS CORPORATION LPV-1200/1600

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

LONG RANGE, VERTICAL POLARIZATION, DIPOLE LOG PERIODIC, STEERABLE BEAM - LPV-1200/1600

picture Antenna Products Corporation LPV-1200/1600

Applications

The LPV-1200 series antennas are fixed station, vertically polarized, log periodic dipole antennas suitable for short range groundwave circuits and mediums to long range skywave circuits in the 2-30 MHz frequency band.

Features

Multi-stranded wire array, heavy duty aluminium tower, corrosion resistant materials and low maintenance components are major design achievements incorporated into this antenna, providing lower maintenance costs.

Characteristics

The LPV-1600 series utilizes four independent LPV-1200 series curtains arrayed in a rosette configuration about a single support tower and provides independent sector coverage.

Equipment Supplied

Prefabricated alumoweld curtain, 6061-T6 bolted aluminium tower, guy wires, front pole guys, anchors, and spare hardware.

Optional Equipment

Galvanized welded steel tower, balun transformer, wood pole, obstruction lights, ladder, climbing devices, erection kit, repair kit, and repair tool kit. Coaxial cable, connector adapters and mating adapters.
