Description
The Model 1000T8G18B is a self contained, forced air-cooled, broadband traveling wave tube (TWT) microwave amplifier designed for applications where instantaneous bandwidth, high gain and high power output are required. Reliable TWT subsystems provide a conserva-tive 1000 watts minimum at the amplifier out-put connector over most of the frequency range. Stated power specifications are at fun-damental frequency.
The amplifier's front panel digital display shows forward and reflected output plus exten-sive system status information accessed through a series of menus via soft keys. Status indicators include power on, warm-up, standby, operate, faults, excess reflected power warning and remote. Standard features in-clude a built-in IEEE-488 (GPIB) interface, 0 dBm input, VSWR protection, gain control, RF output sample ports, auto sleep, plus monitor-ing of TWT helix current, cathode voltage, col-lector voltage, heater current, heater voltage, baseplate temperature and cabinet tempera-ture. Modular design of the power supply and RF components allow for easy access and re-pair. Use of a switching mode power supply results in significant weight reduction.
The rated power is developed by efficiently power combining the outputs from four 300 watts (nominal) microwave tubes that are fac-tory matched in gain and phase to offer mod-erate harmonic levels without added filters. Amplifier includes wheels, leveling feet and hooks for lifting.
The Model 1000T8G18B provides readily available RF power for a variety of applications in Test and Measurement, (including EMC RF susceptibility testing), Industrial and University Research and Development, and Service appli-cations.
Refer to the Model Configuration Chart for alternative configurations and special features.
The export classification for this equipment is EAR99. These commodities, technology or software are controlled for export in accord-ance with the U.S. Export Administration Regu-lations. Diversion contrary to U.S. law is pro-hibited.
