CXL 150-1LW-SS-Ex/h ATEX Certified VHF Antenna
CXL 150-1LW-SS-Ex/h ATEX Certified Antenna is a professional-grade, unity-gain, omnidirectional antenna specifically engineered for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (Zone 2). This “h” (high) variant covers the 155 to 175 MHz frequency range, making it ideal for marine VHF, Land Mobile Radio (LMR), and industrial communication in hazardous areas.
Features
-
Hazardous Area Approved: ATEX marking II 3G Ex nA IIC T6, ensuring safety in Zone 2 environments.
-
Extreme Durability: Features a polyurethane-coated glass fibre radome and an acid-proof stainless steel (AISI 316L) mounting bracket.
-
Superior Grounding: All metal parts are DC-grounded to reduce noise from atmospheric discharges; the connector shows a DC-short.
-
Broadband Performance: The $1/2 \lambda$ coaxial dipole design provides stable gain and low VSWR across the entire 20 MHz bandwidth.
-
Weather Resistant: IP66 rated and tested for wind speeds up to 200 km/h.
