Schwarzbeck Modular Antenna Masts

Modular Antenna Mast - AM 9144

The double telescopic antenna mast / tripod is continuously height-adjustable. The mast rods are made of glass fibre to avoid unwanted reflexions. The modular design makes it possible to use different telescope parts and it can be mounted on a mast foot made of stainless steel or one made out of low-reflective fiberglass. Both of them provide a secure stand and easy adjustment on uneven ground. Antennas or adapters can be mounted on the 3/8" male thread.

Specifications:
Overall height adjustmeint: (depending on configuration)	0.53 m - 3 m
Antenna or adapter mount:	3/8" (male)
Material mast:	GFK / fiberglass
Diameter of circle around foot:	aprrox. 1.5 m
Weight: (depending on configuration)	5 ~ 7 kg

	Mast Adapter Suitable for adapters with 3/8" female thread. AA 9202, AA9202 POM, AA 9203, PDG 9211, RA 9215, AA 9205, AA 9209, KG 9201
	Telescope Interchangeable telescopic part in different sizes.
	Mast Foot Available in 3 different versions: Stainless steel, GF or tiltable mast foot
	Wheels These wheels are optionally available. Depending on the foot, they have a different mounting-system.
	Extender To increasing the maximum height of the telescopic part.

2. Telescope

The modular telescopic parts are interchangeable. So different height adjust-ments can be realized. When selecting the telescope, please make sure that an additional vertical offset may be caused by the mast foot and the optional wheels. The modular telescopic parts are interchangeable.

3. Mast Foot

AM 9144 M-VA

Height offset:

+ 10 cm

The mast made of stainless steel fits for all AM 9144 T - models. With its adjustment screws strongly uneven ground can be compensated. A rotating star can lock the legs.

AM 9144 M-GFK

Height offset:

+ 5 cm

The low-reflection mast foot made of fiberglass is suitable for all AM 9144 T models. With its adjustable rubber feet slightly uneven ground can be compensated. Due to the simple plug-in system the mast foot set up is quick and easy.

AM 9144 M-TILT

Height offset:

+ 14 cm

The tiltable mast is suitable for all AM 9144 T models. With the hand wheel, the entire mast ca be tilted. This is necessary as otherwise a polarization change of the antenna, due to the an-tenna elements, would not be possible.

Tilt angle: > 20°

With its adjustment screws strongly uneven ground can be compensated. A rotating star can lock the legs.

4. Wheels

AM 9144 W-VA

Height offset:

+ 5 cm

The wheel are suitable for the stainless steel mast foot AM 9144 M-VA. They are simply attached instead of the end caps into the legs and are locked with the star handle screw. With the parking brake the mast remains in position.

AM 9144 W-GFK

Height offset:

+ 5 cm

These wheels are suitable for the GFK mast foot AM 9144 M-GFK. The wheels are simply assembled instead of the rubber feet. With the parking brake the mast remains in position.

5. Extender

The Extender is screwed by its 3/8 "female threads on top of the telescopic part and extends it. The length of the extender is made in a way so that a stepless height adjustment remains possible. The resulting height of a retracted telescope with extender corresponds to the height of a completely extended telescope.

Overall height adjustment in different configurations

Mast Foot	Wheels	Telescope
		AM 9144 T-05		AM 9144 T-08		AM 9144 T-09		AM 9144 T-12
		min	max	min	max	min	max	min	max
VA	no wheels	61	104	80	140	90	160	115	205
VA	wheels	66	109	85	145	95	165	120	210
GFK	no wheels	56	99	75	135	85	155	110	200
GFK	wheels	61	104	80	140	90	160	115	205

When using an extender, the height adjustment range is increased depending on the length. This should be considered when calculating the total height adjustment range.
