TeraScan Model 30 Antenna 1.8 - 3.1m L-, S-, X-Band

2-Axis EL/AZ Program & Autotrack antennas

SeaSpace's TeraScan Model 30 Antenna is specifically engineered to meet the rigorous tracking requirements of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, launch vehicles, missiles and other, airborne objects. The Model 30 pedestal balances the complex competing factors of tracking dynamics & keyhole elimination with reliability, ease-of installation and cost, resulting in a high performance solution providing superior value.

Features      Benefits Reflector antennas ranging in size from 1.8 - 3.1 meters in diameter Program Track and Autotrack feeds supporting single or multiple frequencies at L-, S-, and X-band Supports tracking of LEO satellites, launch vehicles, missiles and aircraft A Best Value Solution 2-Axis, EL/AZ geometry with an optional Cross-Elevation 3rd axis Capable of high tracking dynamics with velocities up to 45 deg/sec and accelerations up to 20 deg/sec Full hemispherical coverage with minimized pointing losses, even for high overhead passes at X-band High torsional stiffness, compliance and resonant frequency 19-bit virtual absolute shaft encoders on both axes High pointing and tracking precision and accuracy Intelligent Motors with integrated servos mean each drive unit can be accessed remotely for FD/FI providing the Model 30 with unique "Intelligent Drive" technology Interchangeable drive units on both axes Low LRU Count, easy access to all LRUs Minimal maintenance requirement Control and RF cabling is internal Stow pins & interlocks for safety All steel, fully counter-balanced design High MTBF, low MTTR High Reliability / Availability Low maintenance and life cycle costs High level of security and safety
