The Azimuth only pylon rotators are used for an
overall small size and light weight DUT in single axis
measurement. They incorporate a positioner located
in the tip of the pylon. The rotator seamlessly
mates with the device under test, preserving the
integrity of the DUT’s test evaluation. DUT eleva-
tion adjustments can be implemented manually or
via a motorized elevation positioner/leveling device at
the base of the pylon.
