SCAM SeriesSelf Contained Army Mast
Today‘s mast for tomorrow‘s
military systems
For nearly two decades the SCAM Series of Clark Masts has been accepted and used inquantity by a number of Military Forces round the world. As a Radio Relay mast it is still hard to better. The original 12 metre model was quickly joined by others which cover heights between 7 and 21 metres. They are all supplied as complete kits having all the items necessary for field erection anywhere. In a large percentage of cases they are vehicle mounted. For such applications vehicle mounting accessories are available. SCAM Series masts are not lightweight and need a two man team to operate, four men in the case of the 21 meise model. However, even this weight becomes an advantage when the mast has to be Set up on a hard surface such as a road or a cobbled farmyard without the possibility of pickets and guys. Overall the emphasis has been on fine design for efficiency in operation coupled with a construction that can withstand the rigours of a military environment.
Since introduction, masts in the SCAM Series have undergone many detail
improvements. Unchanged however are the features that make it instantly
recognizable - the rugged square section all-steel mast case and the four
adjustable steel legs, rigidly attached to the case for great stability.
The case hauses an aluminium alloy telescopic mast having a maximum of 8
sections. Each section is fitted with a clamp collar to enable the mast to
remain extended indefinitely, independent of the air pressure used for extension.
At the top of the mast a sturdy and very effective socket clamp is fitted
which directly accepts antennas fitted with the draft NATO standard 40 mm
dia spigat. The swivelling guy collar which is also incorporated in the mast
head, is arranged to pass two heavy feeder cables inside the guy collar,
allowing the mast, even when guyed, to be turned 3600 or moved without being
limited by antenna feeders. Intermediate height feeder guide rings are provided
to prevent flapping in high winds. The turning of the ball bearing mounted
mast is almost effortless using a folding handle. A brake is fitted. Azimuth
may be read from a pratractor ring calibrated in five degree steps or, an
request, 50 mils. A built-in bubble level assists vertical setting up. Although
a hand pump is provided in the standard Kit, air pressure from other saurces,
as convenient, may be used for extending the masts. In the past SCAM masts
have been widely vehicle mounted including special installations on armoured
vehicles. On all such matters Factory advice is always available.
