AN/TMQ-40 Integrated Meteorological System (IMETS)

AN/TMQ-40 Integrated Meteorological System (IMETS)

SYSTEM PARAMETERS

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The IMETS is a tactical automated weather data system used

Frequency: 30 - 88 MHz

Power: 50 W (SINCGARS)

for receiving, processing, and disseminating information to

1.6 30 MHz

125 W (Harris 5000)

provide timely weather forecasts. The AN/TMQ-40 RF

sources are two Harris Model 5000 HF transceivers and one

Single Channel Ground and Air Radio System (SINCGARS).

It utilizes two 9.75 m whip antennas mounted atop the

Standard Integrated Command Post Shelter.

HAZARD CONTROLS (to reduce or eliminate risk)

SYSTEM HAZARDS

Power Density Levels (PDL) ....

The SINCGARS is not able to produce potentially hazardous PDLs in excess of the

safety standard and is not subject to radiation protection control. The Harris series

transceiver 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) .

Hazard distance from antenna ....

Exclude personnel to a distance of 1.2 m from the whip antenna.

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

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

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

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