AN/FRN-23 Radio Beacon Set

AN/FRN-23 Radio Beacon Set

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

SYSTEM PARAMETERS

The AN/FRN-23 is a radio beacon set which utilizes either a 2 element dipole,

Power: 2.25 W

fed-in-phase collinear array, or a 1.9 m long-wire antenna.

SYSTEM HAZARDS

HAZARD CONTROLS (to reduce or eliminate risk)

Power Density Levels (PDL) ....

This system is not able to produce potentially hazardous PDLs in excess of the safety

standard.

AN/FRN-47 (DME) Stationary Aviation System

SYSTEM PARAMETERS

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The AN/FRN-47 is a stationary aviation system which can

Frequency: 962 MHz 1.213 GHz

Power: 105 W

transmit and receive data from aircraft through aircraft-initiated

interrogations. The system is usually enclosed in a shelter

adjacent to the airfield runway. The stacked dipole antenna is

mounted atop the shelter.

SYSTEM HAZARDS

HAZARD CONTROLS (to reduce or eliminate risk)

Power Density Levels (PDL) ....

This system, under normal operations, is not able to produce potentially hazardous PDLs

in excess of the safety standard. This system, under certain maintenance operations, is

able to produce potentially hazardous PDLs in excess of the safety standard. Establish

a Nonionizing Radiation Protection Program (IAW guidelines provided in this TB) .

RF shock/burn .....................

Observe normal RF shock precautions. Do not touch the antenna when energized.

Other.................................

Consult the equipment Technical Manual for other operator and/or maintenance hazards.

Advise personnel to maintain at least 0.5 m from the antenna during maintenance

procedures which require generation of false targets.
