1. Safety Any personnel involved in installation, operation or service of Allgonrepeaters must understand and obey the following:•Allgon AR repeaters are designed to receive and amplify signals fromone or more base stations and retransmit the signals to one or moremobile stations. Also, the repeaters are designed to receive signals fromone or more mobile stations, amplify and retransmit to the basestations. The AR repeaters must be used exclusively for these purposesand nothing else.•Repeaters supplied from the mains must be connected to groundedoutlets and in conformity with any local regulations. •The power supply unit in repeaters supplied from the mains containsdangerous voltage that can cause electric shock. Disconnect the mainsprior to any work in such a repeater. Any local regulations are to befollowed when servicing repeaters.Authorized service personnel only are allowed to service repeaters whilethe mains is connected.•The repeater cover must be secured in opened position, e.g. by tying itup, at outdoor repeater work. Otherwise, the cover can be closed by thewind and cause your fingers getting pinched or your head being hit.•When working on a repeater on high ground, e.g. on a mast or pole, becareful not to drop parts or the entire repeater. Falling parts can causeserious personal injury.•Any repeater, including this repeater, will generate radio signals andthereby give rise to electromagnetic fields that may be hazardous to thehealth of any person who is extensively exposed to the signals at theimmediate proximity of the repeater and the repeater antennas. BERYLLIUM OXIDE•CHA channel board power transistors, PA amplifier board powertransistors, combiners (CMB), and FON board attenuators (at the P101port) may contain beryllium oxide (BeO) that is poisonous if present asdust or smoke which can be inhaled.Do not file, grind, machine, or treat these parts with acid.Warning signs are applied on units containing beryllium oxide. Thesewarning signs are shown in the next section. HYDROGEN FLUORIDE•The coaxial cable insulation is made of PTFE, polytetrafluoro ethylene,that gives off small amounts of hydrogen fluoride when heated.Hydrogen fluoride is poisonous. Do not use heating tools whenstripping off coaxial cable insulation.No particular measures are to be taken in case of fire because theemitted concentration of hydrogen fluoride is very low.Allgon Systems AB AR Repeaters SafetyVD204 43/EN - Installation Guide Rev. 1A 2001-06 1 - 1
•A lithium battery is permanently mounted on the CU and FON boards.Due to the risk of explosion, this battery must not be removed from theboard. In case of battery malfunction, replace the entire board. Theold board can be sent to Allgon for repair. •The optional FON board contains a class 1 laser transmitter that emitsinvisible laser radiation during operation. Avoid direct exposure fromunconnected laser transmitter or fiber cord.•The heat sink element on a CDMA High Power repeater can be veryhot. Do not touch this surface during operation.Warning Signs The following warning signs must be observed and be kept clean andreadable.Beryllium oxideThis warning sign is applied on boards and units which contain berylliumoxide parts.This warning sign is applied at the bottom, inside the cabinet, below thepower supply unit.The previous section details parts containing beryllium oxide and how toavoid dangerous dealing with these parts.BerylliumoxidehazardBERYLLIUM OXIDE(Toxic)used in equipmentsee instruction bookAllgon Systems AB AR Repeaters SafetyVD204 43/EN - Installation Guide Rev. 1A 2001-06 1 - 2
Static Electricity Static electricity means no risk of personal injury but it can severelydamage essential parts of the repeater, if not handled carefully.Parts on the printed circuit boards as well as other parts in the repeaterare sensitive to electrostatic discharge.Never touch the printed circuit boards or uninsulated conductorsurfaces unless absolutely necessary.If you must handle the printed circuit boards or uninsulated conductorsurfaces, use ESD protective equipment, or first touch the repeaterchassis with your hand and then do not move your feet on the floor.Never let your clothes touch printed circuit boards or uninsulatedconductor surfaces.Always store printed circuit boards in ESD-safe bags.Allgon Systems AB AR Repeaters SafetyVD204 43/EN - Installation Guide Rev. 1A 2001-06 1 - 3
2. InstallationBefore installation, read carefully Chapter 1, Safety.Siting the Repeater Allgon repeaters are designed for outdoor usage. However, humidity andtemperature changes may have affect on the reliability. A preferable sitefor the repeater is thus indoor, in a tempered and ventilated room.Sunshine If a repeater is placed outdoor and can be exposed to direct sunshine, it isessential that the air can circulate around the repeater with no obstacle.The operating temperature must not exceed +55°C. A shelter can be usedto shade the repeater from direct sunshine.Shelter Allgon repeaters are designed with a weather proof outdoor case that canbe mounted without any kind of shelter from rain, snow or hail.If a repeater is to be opened on the site when raining, snowing, or hailingthere must be some kind of permanent or temporary shelter. This isapplicable to gentle rainfall, snowfall or hail. Limitations for very badweather is found in the next section.Allgon can provide a shelter designed for these repeaters. This shelter isshown in Figure 2-1.Outdoor Installation and Service Limitations Sited outdoors, the repeater must not be opened for installation or serviceat bad weather, such as:–Intense rainfall, snowfall or hail.–Storm or high wind.–Extremely low or high temperature.–High humidity of the air.Allgon Systems AB AR Repeaters InstallationVD204 43/EN - Installation Guide Rev. 1A 2001-06 2 - 1
