Equipment Safety
2.2.1
Installation and Servicing Personnel
The equipment should be installed and serviced only by qualified personnel.
2.2.2
Preventing Damage to the PA
The 
base station
 has been designed to operate safely under a wide range of 
antenna loading conditions. Transmitting into a low VSWR will maximize 
the power delivered to the antenna.
Important
Do not remove the load from the PA while it is 
transmitting.
Load transients (switching or removing the load) or atmospheric 
disturbances (for example rain static and electrical storms) can damage the 
PA output stage. See 
 for recommendations. 
2.2.3
ESD Precautions
Important
This equipment contains devices which are susceptible to 
damage from static charges. You must handle these devices 
carefully and according to the procedures described in the 
manufacturers’ data books.
We recommend you purchase an antistatic bench kit from a reputable 
manufacturer and install and test it according to the manufacturer’s 
instructions.

You can obtain further information on antistatic precautions and the dangers 
of electrostatic discharge (ESD) from standards such as ANSI/ESD 
S20.20-1999 or BS EN 100015-4 1994.
