ROTOTILLER

Circularly Polarized FM Antenna

Benefits
Low VSWR, superior VSWR band width, and minimal
weather related VSWR problems
Fully pressurized, internal feed and welded feed
connections
High input power capacity
Modular construction facilitates easy installation and
repair
Rugged brass construction and stainless steel support
brackets and hardware Corrosion resistant construction
Radomes or deicing heaters not normally required for
radial ice less than 1/2-inch; however radomes or deicing
heaters are available

ERI antennas are unchallenged in quality and dependability.

ERI is the only manufacturer to use large diameter outer
conductors and a completely enclosed, pressurized, internal
series feed system. The result is a simple and reliable method
of coupling power to the elements. Unlike competing
designs, ERI series fed antennas do not require a troublesome
secondary current loop for element excitation with all the
resulting disadvantages. All ERI antennas include brackets
for mounting on leg, pole, or face mounting (up to 42-inch
uniform cross section tower); brackets for other mounting
configurations are optionally available.

ERIs original and distinctive design combines the exceptional

engineering features of an internally fed, fully pressurized
system with superior fabrication characterized by totally
welded feed connections, rugged brass material and TIG
welding. The ROTOTILLER FM antennas unique design
consists of two series fed, bent dipole elements which form
a space phased, circularly polarized radiator. The antennas
configuration and the large diameter of the radiating elements
contribute to the excellent bandwidth of the antenna system,
and also inhibits corona discharge.
The horizontally polarized horizontal plane azimuth pattern
of the SHPX series antenna is omnidirectional within 2
dB when the antenna is pole or LAMBDA Optimized
Mounting System mounted atop a tower. Side mounting the
antenna on a typical tower structure will affect the azimuth
pattern. ERI offers a pattern measurement service to assist
in determining the effect of the mounting structure on the
antennas pattern. Using ERIs pattern optimization service, the
patterns circularity may be improved through the addition of
parasitically excited elements.

Notes:
(1) Antenna weight and wind load are approximate values for a typical structure assuming no top load. Final design loads will vary for specific projects and should be verified by an ERI representative.
(2) Wind loads are calculated in accordance with the ANSI/TIA/EIA 222-F standard. Weight and effective wind area (CaAc) includes antenna, inner transmission feed and typical support mast and
mounting brackets with no ice.

Notes:
(1) Antenna weight and wind load are approximate values for a typical structure assuming no top load. Final design loads will vary for specific projects and should be verified by an ERI representative.
(2) Wind loads are calculated in accordance with the ANSI/TIA/EIA 222-F standard. Weight and effective wind area (CaAc) includes antenna, inner transmission feed and typical support mast and mounting brackets with no ice.
