Telemetry transmitters are typically mounted on animals, so have to be made waterproof. The receivers, usually held by researchers as they walk or ride through the forest or desert, are generally fine out in the open. When the work must be carried out in adverse conditions, such as in bad weather, tropical rainforests, or at sea, moisture can ruin a receiver and end the expedition.
As an accessory to the fine receivers made by Telonics, we have made what we call Environmental Housings to keep these units working in any conditions
since 1979. Like our other housings, these were originally custom-designed for this application, but due to their popularity, have been evolved to a standard product. Since they are built to order, they can also be customized.
Environmental housings from The Sexton Company are designed to protect your delicate telemetry equipment against most of the hazards of fieldwork. Built of durable acrylic plastic, with captive doors and self-aligning connectors, these housings fully offset the effects of rain, snow, mud, salt spray, sand, debris, and submersion throughout the life of your Telonics equipment.
The only preparation necessary to install your Telonics equipment into its environmental housing is to exchange the original Telonics aluminum knobs with the plated brass U-joint halves provided with the housing (Allen wrench included). This need only be done once, as the Telonics equipment can be used outside the housing using the U-joint halves as knobs.
To install the Telonics unit, slip it into the open top of
the housing, close the top cover using the alignment
provided by the self-contacting connectors, and latch the
top.
To remove the equipment from the housing, unlatch the top
cover, lift the top cover straight up to disengage the
connectors, and pull the equipment out of the housing.
Bump cases are provided with each housing to protect the
acrylic box from shock damage and from the greenhouse effect
of a closed, clear box gaining heat in sunlight. They are
made from light colored 1/4 inch closed cell Neoprene® with
Nylon® on both sides, and have an attached adjustable
shoulder strap. All seams are double cemented and sewn for
durability. The cases add about 1/2 inch to all housing
dimensions and weigh about 1/2 pound.
All housings are made from 1/4 inch [6mm] acrylic, buna-N O
ring seals, stainless steel spring latches, control shafts,
and hardware. Connectors are chrome-plated brass. They are
waterproof to a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes. They
feature captive access doors to prevent loss or
misalignment. After initial installation of universal
joints, insertion, removal, and operation of the equipment
is done without tools. All external connectors (antenna,
headphones, battery charger) are self aligning and self
connecting. Each housing includes a spares kit with O-ring
grease, spare O-rings, and appropriately sized Allen
wrench(es).
