AN/ULQ-19 (V) 1, 2 Communications Jamming System

AN/ULQ-19 (V) 1, 2 Communications Jamming System

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

SYSTEM PARAMETERS

The AN/ULQ-19 is a jeep-mounted tactical VHF signal jamming system for

Frequency: 20 80 MHz

Power: 250 W

use in the forward combat zone. It utilizes a roof-mounted omnidirectional

whip antenna.

HAZARD CONTROLS (to reduce or eliminate risk)

SYSTEM HAZARDS

Power Density Levels (PDL) ....

This system 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 distances of 1.5 m from the antenna. Due to the placement of

the system antenna, in normal operations, no radiation hazard will exist to personnel.

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.

Specify the use of dummy loads during maintenance operations.

AN/UPD-7 PIP Radar Surveillance System

SYSTEM PARAMETERS

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The AN/UPD-7 is an airborne sideways-looking array radar

Frequency: 9.1 9.4 GHz

Power: 22 W average

(SLAR). It utilizes two identical antennas mounted on each side

of the aircraft fuselage.

SYSTEM HAZARDS

HAZARD CONTROLS (to reduce or eliminate risk)

Power Density Levels (PDL) ....

This system is able to produce potentially hazardous PDLs in excess of the safety

standard near the antenna radome. Establish a Nonionizing Radiation Protection

Program (IAW guidelines provided in this TB) .

Open/cracked waveguides .......

All open waveguides and the antenna radome produce potentially hazardous PDLs.

Exclude personnel to a distance of 30 cm from the antenna radome. Periodically inspect

waveguides for cracks or leaks and replace suspect waveguides.

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

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

Prohibit system free-space radiating with the randome removed.
