Cleaning
Clean the radome with a soft cloth moistened in a mild non-
abrasive alcohol free soap solution.
Cleaning the radome is important as system performance can be degraded
if the transmission face becomes obscured by salt deposits or dirt.

Physical
inspection
Ensure that all fasteners retaining the system are tight, secure and
show no signs of severe corrosion or damage.
☐
☐
Inspect the system including the mounting points and (where fitted)
the anti-vibration mounts for any signs of stress damage.
Adverse conditions: This inspection should be carried out at the earliest
safe opportunity after the system has been exposed to severe or adverse
weather conditions, high impacts or severe vibrations.

☐
Check all accessible or exposed cables for signs of damage and
ensure they are safely secured into/ onto cable trays or trunking.

☐
Check that the Immersible breather located on the base of the
transceiver is clean and not obscured by dirt.
Caution: Do not insert sharp or pointed objects into the immersible
breather as this will damage the seal.

☐
☐
The system should be checked to ensure there is no obvious
external damage, cracks or splits in the housing or potential fault
conditions that could lead to a general failure of any part of the
system.

Earth
bonding and
continuity
Ensure that the earth bonding nuts and bolts are tight and free from
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean and re-terminate
☐
☐
Test the earth bonding conductivity by attaching one lead of the test
equipment
note
to earth/ chassis and the other to the M6 earth stud
on the radome radar.
Check earth bonding for continuity. The resistance should not
exceed 0.1 ohms. If a test fails, investigate the bonding, rectify and
retest.
Note: Safety ohmmeter, Bridge Megger or Multimeter.
