Offset Reflector Antenna
750 mm diameter offset reflector antenna with elevation over azimuth mount has manual movement.
The elevation axis of the reflector is held in suitable bearings located on the rear side of the reflector. Screw jack type arrangement with low backlash machined screw and suitable hand wheel is provided for effecting reflector rotation about elevation axis. Rotary indexing table with a hand wheel provides azimuth rotation. A modular, rigid tripod with a provision for leveling is designed to carry both the axes & antenna assembly.
For angle measurement encoders are fitted on both the axes. Angle information is then displayed with Digital read out (DRO).
