Safety summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service and repair of this
equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates
safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the equipment. Thrane & Thrane assumes no liability
for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements.
GROUND THE EQUIPMENT
To minimise shock hazard, the equipment chassis and cabinet must be connected to an electrical ground and the
cable instructions must be followed.
DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Component replacement and internal adjustment must be
made by qualified maintenance personnel. Do not service the unit with the power cable connected. Always discon-
nect and discharge circuits before touching them.
Service
General service must be done by skilled service personnel.
Caution! Only skilled service personnel may service and repair the equipment.
Always carry out work under ESD safe conditions.

RF exposure hazards and instructions
Your Thrane & Thrane radio generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when transmitting. To ensure
that you and those around you are not exposed to excessive amounts of energy and thus to avoid health hazards
from excessive exposure to RF energy, all persons must obey the following:
Caution! Never touch the horn of the Antenna Tuning Unit or feeder wire when
the MF/HF
radio is transmitting. High voltage which can cause death
or serious injury is present at the locations shown in the illustration
below.
Warranty limitation
The radio is not a user maintainable unit, and under no circumstances should the unit be opened except by authorized
personnel. Unauthorized opening of the unit will invalidate the warranty.

Preface
Radio for occupational use
The SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC fulfils the requirements of the SOLAS directive and is intended for use in maritime
environment.
SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC is designed for occupational use only and must be operated by licensed personnel only.
SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC is not intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public.
Training information
The SAILOR 6000B MF/HF DSC is designed for occupational use only and is also classified as such. It must be ope-
rated by licensed personnel only. It must only be used in the course of employment by individuals aware of both
the hazards as well as the way to minimize those hazards.
The radio is thus NOT intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public. The SAILOR 6000 MF/HF
DSC has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. The radio also com-
plies with the following guidelines and standards regarding RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels including
the recommended levels for human exposure:
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines for human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic fields.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure
to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE recommended practice for the measurement of potentially
hazardous electromagnetic fields - RF and microwaves.
Below the RF exposure hazards and instructions in safe operation of the radio within the FCC RF exposure limits
established for it are described.

Warning
The SAILOR radio set generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when transmitting. To ensure that no
personnel will be exposed to excessive amounts of RF-energy and to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure
to RF energy, the following safety distances must be followed:
Antenna Safety distance
150W Calculated: 1.71 m or 5.7 feet
250W Calculated: 2.21 m or 7.3 feet
500W Calculated: 3.12 m or 10.3 feet
Calculations cover a whip antenna with a maximum gain of 3dBi, worst case frequency (30 MHz), full power and
100% duty cycle (transmitter always on) considering the most conservative limits mentioned in:
FCC OET Bulletin 65 (1997)
Canada RSS102 (2010)
Canada Safety Code 6 (2015)
Installation Example for 150W
1. A whip antenna with a maximum gain of 3 dBi must be mounted at least 12.3 ft. (3.71m) above the highest
deck where people may be staying during continuous radio transmissions. The distance is to be measured
vertically from the lowest point of the antenna. This provides the minimum separation distance which is in
compliance with RF exposure requirements and is based on the MPE radius of 5.7 feet (1.71 m) plus the 6.6 ft.
(2.0 m) height of an adult.
2. On vessels that cannot fulfill requirements in item 1, the antenna must be mounted so that the lowest point of
the antenna is at least 5.7 feet (1.71m) vertically above the heads of people on deck and all persons must be
outside the 5.7 feet MPE radius during radio transmission.
• Always mount the antenna at least 5.7 feet from possible human accessNever touch the antenna when
transmitting.
• Never touch the antenna when transmitting.
• Use only authorized T&T accessories.
• Only allow trained and certified operators knowing about RF-energy and hazards to operate the radio.
3. If the antenna has to be placed in public areas or near people with no awareness of the radio transmission, the
antenna must be placed at an even greater distance. Consult the appropriate standard for exact limits, depending
on national specifications.
Failure to observe any of these warnings may cause RF exposure exceeding above mentioned limits or create dan-
gerous conditions..
