Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the equipment. Thrane & Thrane A/S assumes no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements. Ground the equipment To minimise shock hazard, connect the SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder to an electrical ground and follow the cable instructions. RF exposure hazards and instructions The SAILOR unit generates electromagnetic RF energy when transmitting. To ensure that you and those around you are not exposed to excessive amounts of energy and to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure to RF energy, all persons must be at least 0.2 m away from the antenna when the unit is transmitting. Warranty limitation IMPORTANT - The SAILOR 6285 GPS Antenna – Active is a sealed waterproof unit (classified IPx6 & IPx8). To create and maintain its waterproof integrity it was assembled in a controlled environment using special equipment. The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is not a user maintainable unit, and under no circumstances should the unit be opened except by authorized personnel. Unauthorized opening of the unit will invalidate the warranty. Installation and service Installation and general service must be done by skilled service personnel. Compass safe distance Compass safe distance: 55 cm (Standard magnetic compass), 45 cm (Emergency magnetic compass) from the SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder or the SAILOR 6283 AIS Connection Box and Wall Tray. 98-137573-B iii Preface Approvals The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder fulfills the requirements of the Marine Equipment Directive 96/98/EC with 8th amend 2012/32/EU and is intended for use in maritime environment. The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is approved to MED 2011/75/EU and fulfills the requirements in the standards: IEC 61993-2 (2012), IEC 60945 ed.4 (2002), ITU-R M.1371-4, IEC 61162-1 (2010), IEC61162-2 (1999). The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is approved to FCC CFR47 part 80 with USCG approval no. 165.155/0168/BABT/MED000046/0575. The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is approved to IC and fulfills the requirements in RSS-182. The approvals of the SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder are constantly monitored. New national approvals will be applied for and granted and new test standards may come into force. Therefore the above list may not be complete. Contact your authorized dealer for more information. iv 98-137573-B Training information The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is designed for occupational use only and is also classified as such. It must only be used in the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards as well as the way to minimize those hazards. The unit is thus NOT intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public. The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. The unit also complies with the following guidelines and standards regarding RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels including the recommended levels for human exposure: • FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields. • American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. • American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE recommended practice for the measurement of potentially hazardous electromagnetic fields - RF and microwaves. Below is a description of the RF exposure hazards and instructions in safe operation of the unit within the FCC RF exposure limits established for it. Warning Your SAILOR unit generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when it is transmitting. To ensure that you and those around you are not exposed to excessive amounts of that energy (beyond FCC allowable limits for occupational use) and thus to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure to RF energy, FCC OET bulletin 65 establishes a Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) radius of 0.2 m for the maximum power of your unit (12.5 W selected) with a half wave omni-directional antenna having a maximum gain of 3 dB (5.2 dBi). This means all persons must be at least 0.2 m away from the antenna when the unit is transmitting. Alerte de Sécurité Dangers liés á l'exposition aux fréquences radio et instructions. Conformément á la réglementation d'industrie Canada, le present radio emetteur ne peut fonctionner qu'avec une antenne de type omnidirectionelle, demi-onde ou d'un gain maximale de 3 dB, approuvée par Industrie Canada. Pour éviter les risques pour la santé dûs á une exposition excessive aux champs de fréquences radio, une distance minimale de 0.2 m est nécessaire entre l'utilisateur et le radio-émetteur. Installation The SAILOR 6282 AIS Transponder is designed for installation by a skilled service person. 1. An omni-directional antenna with a maximum power gain of 5.2 dBi must be mounted at least 2.2 m above the highest deck where people may be staying during radio transmissions. The distance is to be measured vertically from the lowest point of the antenna. This provides the minimum separation distance which is in compliance with RF exposure requirements and is based on the MPE radius of 0.2 m plus the 2 m height of an adult. 2. On vessels that cannot fulfill requirements in item 1, the antenna must be mounted so that its lowest point is at least 0.2 m vertically above the heads of people on deck and all persons must be outside the 0.2 m MPE radius during radio transmission. • Always mount the antenna at least 0.2 m from possible human access. 98-137573-B v • Never touch the antenna when transmitting • Use only authorized SAILOR accessories. 3. If the antenna has to be placed in public areas or near people with no awareness of the radio transmission, the antenna must be placed at a distance not less than 1.8 m from possible human access. Failure to observe any of these warnings may cause you or other people to exceed FCC RF exposure limits or create other dangerous conditions. Record of Revisions Rev.
