Livewire Connections Sales Director David Walker announces the release of their new and unique range of Radome Side Access Hatch Door kits for use with Cobham Satcom VSAT and TVRO antennas.
The latest generation of Cobam Satcom VSAT and TVRO antennas supplied under the SAILOR or Sea Tel trade name use a low-level base fitted with an underside (swing down) hatch door. This design can cause issues that results in restricted maintenance access on some installations, especially when the antenna is mounted onto a slim-line pedestal, restricted access locations or directly to the deck.
To counter to this problem Livewire Connections has developed a range of easy to install side access hatch door kits. Each kit mimics the curvature of the different radome diameter sizes available (50” to 75”) and provides a neat, economical, and practical side hatch access option without the need to revert to a custom-built solution.
Included in each kit is a cutting template, surround bezel, door retaining lanyard, side hatch door (with pre-fitted Sea Tel style catches) and comprehensive instructions of how to fit the door. By providing all the elements required, it makes the hatch door installation an easy task for a skilled composite technician to fit within a few hours and with minimum additional tools.
“Cobham has conducted a review of this product,” comments Dave Walker. “They recommend this side hatch kit as a resolution to the problem of providing an additional maintenance access point on challenging antenna installations.”
Detailing and finishes are importance and the hatch kits can be ordered pre-coloured to match a specific customer colour requirement by providing the RAL number if required.
