2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Before you will start to install and operate power amplifier, read carefully

next safety instructions!

WARNING! AVOID CHILDREN to play around PA or to touch power amplifier or

connected cables in working condition, or to push anything into the fan holes!

WARNING! Never turn the amplifier on without the upper lid in place.

WARNING! The OM1006 amplifier should not be used in WET or HUMID

environment or exposed to RAINFALL!

WARNING! Do not turn the amplifier on without having connected the ANTENNA or

properly rated DUMMY LOAD! A hazardous HF voltage may build up on the antenna

connector after turning the amplifier on with no antenna or dummy load connected!

WARNING! Before opening the upper lid of the amplifier make sure that power

supply has been disconnected. Take out power cord from the outlet!

CAUTION! The amplifier must be installed in such a way that free flow of hot air from

inside is allowed. The amplifier must not be installed in a constrained surrounding (i.e.

tight shelves etc.)

CAUTION! The amplifier must be properly grounded during operation.

CAUTION! During operation the amplifier must be installed in such a way that the

rear panel will stay accessible.

CAUTION! The amplifier is an A category product. In a household it can influence

other electric appliances. In such cases the user is to take proper actions to mitigate this

disturbance.

CAUTION! Read this manual carefully. Follow all of instructions during installation

and operation to avoid damage to the amplifier not covered by manufacturer’s

warranty! Do not attempt to perform any change of hardware or software!

3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

3.1. HF part

OM1006 power amplifier was designed to achieve the RF performance of the MOSFET,

when applied to the 50 – 54 MHz frequency band. Design was tuned for performance at

1000W CW output, 50VDC. It consists of „no tune“ distributed element matching circuits

designed to be as small as possible.

For operating it is important that adequate heat sinking was provided for the design.

Look at the RF Board

The coaxial transformer turns ratio was

chosen to meet required impedance level

and the length of the coax was tuned to

achieve maximum efficiency and

maximum power transfer between the

device and its load impedance.

3.2. Power Supply

The amplifier uses two power supplies. A professional switch mode power supply 50V / 32A

for power amplifier, and small 12V power supply for logic and protection circuits.

Main power supply contains special soft start circuits, uses two fans, which are visible from

the rear side of PA. It has its own logic to control these fans speed.

Power amplifier should be connected to any external source of AC in the range from 100VAC

to 250VAC, 50 or 60 Hz. It can be powered by a portable generator, for example.

Switch Mode Power Supply and the

Supply Board. Two fuses are visible.

3.3. Safety Devices

Control and monitoring circuits ensure control and safety during malfunctions of the PA.

These are on the Control board and the Protection board. Control board is located behind the

front panel. Protection board is visible on the right hand side of PA, close to the input/output

relay.

4. INSTALLATION

NOTE

Read this chapter carefully prior starting with installation. Before unpacking inspect shipping

carton first, if it is not damaged. Keep all of packing parts for possible future shipment. Check

unpacked power amplifier. If you find some damaging, contact your dealer immediately to

keep full warranty.

During installation go step by step according to next parts.

4.1. Grounding

CAUTION

The amplifier has to be grounded properly! Connect the screw on the rear panel of the

amplifier to your local grounding system with a copper cable; use a cross-section of 4

mm2at least.

Connect your transceiver to the same grounding system of your shack carefully!

Use minimum length of cables and make sure that the connections are both physically and

electrically sound. With poor grounding, you may risk damaging to your equipment, having

problems with TVI/BCI or your transmitted signal may be distorted.

4.2. Coaxial Cable

The output of the transceiver is to be connected to the input of the amplifier via RG58 or

similar cable. For the connection between the power amplifier and the antenna, RG213 or

similar coaxial cable suited for high power is recommended. Both the INPUT and OUTPUT

N sockets with Teflon insulation are used.

4.3. Control Cable

Control cable maintains TX / RX switching of the PA (TX GND). The cable is shielded. On

the side of the power amplifier a CINCH-socket is used. On the side of your transceiver you

have to use a socket suitable for this transceiver. During transmitting the middle pin is

connected to the ground.

Amplifier uses one double coaxial relay for input and output (input and output are switched at

the same time). It has to be switched earlier than HF is applied (cold switching).

Modern transceivers have a time delay between PTT switching and power output.

PREAMP -RCA Phono, +12V / 100mA for an external RX preamplifier switching

CAUTION

If you are using an older transceiver or transmitters without time delay, we recommend

to connect the PA in such a way that the transmit/receive switch (foot switch for

example) is connected with the KEY IN socket of the amplifier. The KEY OUT socket is

to be connected with the PTT socket at the transceiver.

The amplifier is equipped with two safety devices, which ensure that the output relay is not

switched under power mistakenly (hot switching).

KEY IN - RCA Phono – Input signal PTT (switching voltage / current 5V /2 mA)

KEY OUT - RCA Phono – Output signal PTT (maximum switching of 50V / 100mA)
