1.0 Introduction
The ETS-Lindgren Model 7-TR Tripod
Positioner is designed for EMC testing,
providing increased stability for physically large,
ultra-broadband antennas, such as
ETS-Lindgren BiConiLog™ antennas. The 7-TR
boom height can be adjusted up and down from
one to two meters (3.3 to 6.6 ft), and can support
antennas up to 13.6 kg (30 lb). The fiberglass
and high-strength plastic construction makes it
non-conductive and non-magnetic.
7-TR/POL-M shown
without boom
Specify the type of boom required when ordering a 7-TR with manual
or pneumatic polarization; a boom is not included. For a list of
available booms, see Boom Options on page 11.

Introduction
www.ets-lindgren.com
The boom is attached to the carrier and is locked into position with a
hand knob clamp. Standard mount knobs are included with the boom
to attach antennas securely to the boom.
Three horizontal legs extend from the base to support the mast and
maximize stability. Each leg has a caster with height adjustment for
leveling the mast on uneven surfaces. For convenient storage, the legs
can be folded upward and the top section of the mast removed.
