Chapter 2: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 2-35
Materials Required:
• 12in (30.5cm) length of CoaxSeal™ #105 hand-moldable plastic
material (
http://www.coax-seal.com). This material is available
from Radio Shack and commercial electrical supply houses.
• 12in (30.5cm) length of black electrical tape, 3M Super 88 Scotch®
Brand Vinyl Electrical Tape or equivalent
Procedure:
1. Connect the RX antenna to the RX cable inside the freezer.
2. Wrap the in-line connectors with electrical tape. The electrical tape
allows the Coax-Seal™ material to come off cleanly in case of future
servicing.
3. Wrap the connection with a 12in (30.5cm) length of Coax-Seal™
material. Wrap beyond the ends of the electrical tape in order to
ensure a watertight seal.
4. Shape and form the Coax-Seal™ material to ensure a good seal.
Note: Keep the electrical tape and Coax-Seal™ material warm inside a
jacket as much as possible while working in the freezer. This keeps
them flexible for better adhesion.
Note: To prevent condensation from becoming trapped inside the
cable connection, do not remove antennas or cables from the freezer
once they have become cold. If they are removed, then keep them
outside the freezer until all signs of condensation have evaporated
before bringing them back in.
