This ruggedly constructed, heavy-duty, all weather environmental Pan & Tilt is designed to remotely position a load of 500 pounds to any degree of azimuth from 0 degrees to 360 degrees or elevation from +90 degrees above to -90 degrees below the horizon. When the unit is in the normal level and upright position, the mounted equipment may be positioned to any degree of azimuth within a preset 360º circle. The equipment tilt table can be moved to any angle from horizontal to approximately ± 90º in direction. This unit is factory set to hard limit of tilt ±10º and pan ±180º. Soft limit stops are factory set to approximately ± 5º for tilt and ± 178º for pan. This device is constructed of aluminum and stainless steel, 17.47” high x 12.28 deep x 17.5” wide and weighs 132 pounds. The exterior parts have a powder coated paint finish. Access to the unit’s interior is provided by a two-piece cover, which can be removed in the field. The cover is held closed by spring-loaded clamps. The interior houses the pan and tilt motors, gear assemblies, pan and tilt shafts, limits stops, a microprocessor control board, 2 motor driver modules, and the internal ground screw.

Weather Environment:
This unit is completely gasketed and sealed to withstand water, dust, and humidity penetration. Extreme temperature lubricants are used throughout; however, for operation below +5 degree F, the use of the heater is recommended. The included heater system consists of a 450-watt heater with self-regulating thermostat. External 120 volt AC power is required for heater operation.

Gearing: Specifically designed heavy-duty precision worm gear assemblies for quiet, high torque efficiency. Backlash is adjustable.

Backlash Take-up: Adjustable in both the Pan & Tilt sections. (see section 4C, 4D page 21)

Bearings: Pan section – Sealed ball & tapered bearings. Tilt section – Sealed ball & tapered bearings.

Tilt Table: Rigidly fastened to tilt worm gear.

Limit Switches: Internally adjustable for both pan and tilt.

Electrical - Power Input Required: Motors operate from a 120 VDC source.
Motors: DC – Permanent magnet.
