The main components of the hydraulic system are: - four cylinders for stabilization: double effect and comprehensive of block valve; - two cylinders for the elevation of the central compartment: - hydraulic foldable tower roof; - hydraulic masts for the antennas elevation. • The control cabin hosts internally all the equipment and instrumentation needed to provide the ATC services: - radio-communication system for short and long distances (VHF, UHF, HF); - antenna systems; - Voice Communication Switching System; - Recording & Playback System; - Meteo System. The cabin, made of aluminum, has a load capacity of 3 operators and all the equipment necessary for the planned activities. Laterally to the cabin there is a large arrangement of 9 glasses which ensure a 360° degree view: windows are positioned with an inclination of 12 degrees to eliminate the solar reflections, plus a film for filtering the solar radiation.
