Camouflage Features
Ensuring that the camouflage features are durable and maintenance-friendly, resisting wear and tear and environmental degradation over time. We at Alwasal, incorporating these criteria into the design and construction of camouflage towers ensures that they not only fulfill their primary function of housing telecommunications equipment but also harmoniously integrate into various environments, maintaining aesthetic qualities and minimizing environmental and social impacts.
Concealed Design
Camouflage towers are designed to blend seamlessly into their surroundings. This feature helps to minimize visual impact and maintain the aesthetic appeal of the environment, making the towers less noticeable.
Durable Construction
These towers are built using high-quality materials to withstand harsh weather conditions. The durability ensures long-term reliability and minimal maintenance requirements, making them a cost-effective solution.
Versatile Applications
Camouflage towers are suitable for various applications, including telecommunications and military. Their ability to blend into different landscapes makes them a versatile choice for diverse settings.
Concentric Rolled Monopoles
Concentric sheets are meticulously rolled and welded both horizontally and vertically to form the shafts. This process includes the integration of stiffener plates, which significantly enhance the tower’s stiffness and overall strength. The resulting surface is smooth and round, providing a cosmetically appealing finish that enhances the visual appeal of the tower. The concentric design is ideal for self-standing telecom monopoles, ensuring reliable performance and structural integrity. Additionally, this design is particularly suited for windmill towers, offering the necessary robustness and stability required for such applications.
Heat Convection
The camouflage section of the tower is specifically designed to facilitate heat convection. FRP panels are spaced adequately to allow air to flow from the bottom to the top, thereby regulating the inner temperature of the camouflage section. The temperature difference between the inside and the ambient environment is maintained at a maximum of 10°. Additionally, the chequered plate at the first platform, located at the bottom side of the camouflage section, also contributes to the heat convection mechanism.
Antenna Arrangement
The antenna arrangement on camouflage towers is versatile and efficient. A single platform can accommodate up to nine GSM antennas. The placement of the antenna mounts is adjustable to achieve the necessary antenna tilt within the GRP cladding. This flexibility allows for precise alignment and optimization of the antenna’s performance. The adjustable mounts support an antenna tilt of 3° to 8°, providing the necessary angular adjustments for optimal signal coverage.
Pultruded Fiber Glass Panels for camouflage section
Pultruded fiber glass panels are a crucial component in the design of camouflage towers. These panels, made from glass fabric, are less than 5mm thick and are connected using pultruded technology, which ensures strength and durability. One significant advantage is that 70% of the material is glass fabric, which minimizes deflection in radio signals, making signal loss negligible. The surface pattern of the panels is digitally printed directly onto the fiber glass with a UV protection layer, eliminating the need for stickers and ensuring longevity. Additionally, the installation process is straightforward, using plastic nut bolts that ensure no line loss for radio signals, and offering a 360° hazard-free clearance for RF signals .
