Pneumatically operated masts offer particularly high comfort. No more tiresome lifting by hand, no more cranking, no more pushing. Simply start the compressor and raise the mast comfortably. The locking mechanism ensures a secure stand even when the pressure is removed. And when lowering the mast, the segments are retracted slowly and in a controlled manner, so the antennas are not exposed to strong vibrations.
This is the only way to make antenna experiments easier or even possible at all - because you can quickly modify an antenna and try something new. The mast can be raised and lowered in a few minutes without any effort, so you can even consider to install a new antenna just for the contest at the weekend. Try this with a hand cranked mast...
Pneumatic antenna masts work by having an built-in compressor that pumps air into the mast, erecting it. Once the desired height is reached, the compressor is turned off and a valve holds the air in the mast.
What are the benefits of pneumatic antenna masts?
Pneumatic masts offer simple and quick setup without manual effort. They are easy to transport and can be quickly and easily deployed in different locations. In addition, they are stable and provide high durability.
How long does the air hold in a pneumatic antenna mast?
The duration of how long the air holds in a pneumatic mast depends on various factors such as the size and material of the mast, temperature and humidity. In general, pneumatic masts hold for several days before needing to be re-inflated.
