PTS40 Antenna Positioners

Product catalog summary

Overview: The PTS40 Series Pan-Tilt Positioners are designed for high positioning accuracy, smooth operation, and reliability, particularly for antennas and electro-optical sensors. They feature stepper motors, precision gearboxes, and high-resolution encoders, suitable for outdoor applications.

Applications: These positioners are used in antenna/electro-optical sensor positioning, tracking, border security, surveillance, and antenna measurements.

Key Features: The series includes step motor power, high angular positioning accuracy, compliance with MIL-STD-810F, lightweight rugged design, marine-grade finish, wide operating temperature range, positional control software, and RS485 communication with closed-loop control.

Technical Specifications: The series includes models PTS40-N100, PTS40-N200, PTS40-N320, PTS40-S050, and PTS40-S100, with varying torque, speed, and dimensions. They operate at 24 VDC or 48 VDC, with power consumption details provided for both moving and holding states. Environmental specifications include operating temperatures from -30°C to +55°C and compliance with various MIL-STD-810F methods for humidity, vibration, shock, rain, and icing.

Control and Communication: The positioners use microstepping motor drive methods, adjustable azimuth and elevation limits, and recordable preset positions. They include a 19” rack mount chassis control box for indoor use, with RS485 and USB communication options.

Miscellaneous: Optional modifications are available for tilt table and base flange, with standard connectors and cables included. The document notes that specifications are subject to change without notice.
