"Chavdar" 5C for the needs of the Central Laboratory for Space Research at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences

Among the little-known implementations of "Chavdar" from the early 1980s is the so-called Universal Mobile Ground Station for Synchronous and Complex Space and Economic Research. It is designed to perform ground measurements and studies in solving a number of scientific-theoretical, scientific-applied and national-economic problems in the field of geophysics, geography, meteorology, hydrology, for the purposes of remote sensing of the Earth, for the study and protection of the environment, for the study of natural resources and for the needs of agriculture, etc. This mobile laboratory is implemented on the basis of a standard chassis of a "Chavdar" 5C minibus and is equipped with a four-stroke diesel engine type D-3900 with a maximum power of 80 hp. The dual drive and the ground clearance of 230 mm allow for trouble-free overcoming of uneven terrain with steep slopes and field roads magazin de piese auto online.

The roof structure is reinforced and various supporting structures are installed on it. With their help and by means of a light duralumin console beam, the devices and apparatuses can be fixed in different positions, when necessary, a special cardan device guarantees an exact vertical or other fixed position of the equipment relative to the position of the van itself.

The checkered roof color can serve as a scale standard, for geometry and weather conditions, as well as a reference point for surveys made from an airplane or helicopter. The body is made in accordance with the requirements for improved heat and moisture resistance. To maintain the necessary microclimate, natural and artificial ventilation, oil and electric heating, as well as the possibility of installing an air conditioning system are provided. The mobile station has luxury seats, which, in addition to the driver, can accommodate three more people.

The equipment also includes devices for determining the location, various geodetic instruments, as well as a digital system for accurate time with an electronic clock with a quartz generator and the ability to automatically compare with standard radio signals for accurate time. A system for official radio communications with portable UHF radiotelephones is also provided, through which contact is established between the various units of the research complexes when conducting research from aircraft and helicopter laboratories, etc.
