Orbital Systems 3.0AE3BP-2.8m antenna positioner is designed and built to provide high reliability while withstanding severe environmental conditions. A high-quality, high-precision, elevation-over-azimuth three axis satellite tracking system with 70 tilt suitable for applications in Ka band and below. Utilizes the orbital data bus (ODB) technology providing integrated control of the antenna positioner and RF payload. Superior engineering, precision manufacturing and strict quality control standards result in maintenance free operation and the optimal choice for service in remote locations and hostile climates.
Features
Standard equipment includes positioner, feed mounting poles, ACU-2 antenna control unit and a complete maintenance tool kit. The positioner also provides standard options for AC or DC power and 100BASE-T Ethernet on the elevation arm. Gold-on-gold contact slip rings facilitate unlimited azimuth rotation and operates on one or two RF channels. Completely eliminating reception loss caused by what is sometimes called a “keyhole effect” in a near overhead pass the 3.0AE3BP positioner utilizes three axis tracking to reduce the worst case maximum tracking velocity requirements for a low LEO to about 70/sec allowing use at any practical frequency.
System Control and Tracking
- ACU-2 antenna control unit supports TLE and vector tracking
- Tracks satellite applications in Ka band and below
- Customized controller interface options available
Motors and Gears
- Mechanical system components are fully integrated with IP65-rated brushless servomotors and integrated brakes, matched and tuned motor drives and heavy duty gears
- Gears are automatically heated to maintain optimal performance at temperatures as low as -40°C
- Gears are completely enclosed in a cast housing and operate inside a controlled environment to increase service life with no lubrication required for at least 10 years
Pressurization
- Antenna positioner and feed are pressurized with dehydrated air to prevent corrosion of system components
- Dry air is supplied using transmission line dehydrator technology
- Temperature and humidity sensors in the electrical cabinet and feed are monitored by the antenna control unit which automatically purges the system of moisture
- System remains operational if pressurization fails
Premium Features
- External structure made from aluminum and stainless steel to prevent corrosion
- Red silicone seals and gaskets rated for the life of the system, and silicone remains pliable
- Remote control stow operation
Reflectors and Feeds
- Supplied with a 2.8m composite reflector with options for 3.0m or 3.7m available
- Equipped with feed poles for use with Orbital Systems feeds
- Feeds available with optional downconverters and polarity switching
- Communication with RF components integrated into the ACU-2 over the ODB
Special Order Options
- Mains A/C or D/C power supplied internally through antenna positioner for elevation arm- mounted electronics
- Gigabyte Ethernet (1000BASE-T) run internally through the antenna positioner
- Additional data pairs run internally through the antenna positioner
- Optical multi mode fiber supplied internally through the antenna positioner
