6. Installation Procedure
6.1 Introduction
Thissection contains thenecessaryinformationsfor the installation andpreliminary
checksonthePJ5000M.
6.2 Unpacking
Unpacktheamplifierandbeforeanyotheroperationcheck that the amplifier hasn’t
beendamaged during transportandall the controlsandconnectorson the frontand
rear panels are in good condition.
6.3 Installation
ToinstallthePJ5000M,itisnecessarytoperformthefollowingoperations:
1) WiththehelpofFigure2,verify thatallthe connectionsarein perfectcondition.
Possibleerrors can damage the amplifier modules.
2) Asshowninthefigureabove,connecta 5KW50 OhmdummyloadtotheHC5-
1'soutput connector withathroughwattmeter in series.
3) Connectan exciter withaoutputpower not lessthan150Wto the R.F. inputof
theHC5-1.
4) Setthe output power oftheexciterto the minimumvalue.
5) Switchon the five PJ1000M and the exciter, and then wait until the exciter is
lockedonto the operatingfrequency.
6) Increasegradually the outputpowerof the exciter, verifyingatthesame timea
proportionalincreaseof output power of the PJ1000M (PWR FWDofthefive
amplifiers)andanincreaseof the output power on the meter of the hybrid
combinerwiththeselectorontheFWD position;theoutput poweronthe meter
ofthe HC5-1hybridcombiner is,apartfrom theinstrumentsreading errorsand
thelittlelossin the combiner, the sum of the output power of each amplifier.
Thisvalue can becomparedwith thevaluereadon the externalwattmeter.

7) Increasetheexciter output power in order to have 5000W power on the
PJ5000M.
8) Switchthe meter selector of the HC5-1 to the RFL position and verify that the
meterneedleisatzero.
9) Toverifythecorrectbalancing of the five PJ1000M modules, do switch the
meterselectoroftheHC5-1toUNBALpositionandverifythat the power isn't
morethan150-200W.

7. Maintenance
7.1 Introduction
Thissectionprovidesgeneralmaintenanceinformationand electricaladjustmentfor
the PJ5000MAmplifier.
Maintenance is divided into categories depending upon the complexity of the
procedureandthe test equipment required to complete themaintenance.
7.2 Safety Consideration
When the amplifier is operational, hazardous voltages and high currents are
accessible internally, and there are high power R.F. signals.
Don’t remove any cover without switching off the system first and close all
covers before restarting the system.
Ensureall primarypower isdisconnected fromthe amplifier before attempting
equipment maintenance.
FIRST LEVEL MAINTENANCE
7.3 Ordinary Maintenance
The only regular maintenance needed by PJ5000M, is the periodic substitution of
the blowers, and the cleaning of dust filters and any dust accumulated inside the
amplifier.
Thetime between overhauling of the blowers dependsuponseveralenvironmental
factors,temperature, humidity, dustpollutionetc.
It’sadvisable to check theunitevery6 months, and tosubstitutenoisyblowers.
Blowersshouldbechangedasamatterofcourse at least every 18 months.
SECOND LEVEL MAINTENANCE
7.4 Equipment’s Card Replacement
Seeasreferencethecardreplacementsection ofthemanuals oftherelative device.

PJ5000M
14 / 18 UserManualRev.2.1 - 28/05/02
7.5 Equipment Replacement
If it’s necessary to replace a power amplifier or the hybrid coupler, it is advisable to
performthe adjustment of the sytem. Refertochapter8fordirections.
