Broadband Power Amplifier: For Conducted Susceptibilty
- ▸ ACS-230-25W broadband RF power amplifier, 150 kHz–230 MHz — a 25-watt RF amplifier engineered for IEC 61000-4-6 conducted RF immunity testing in compliance and pre-compliance EMC labs.
- ▸ Drives standard EMC immunity test levels — delivers 25 W into a 2:1 VSWR load, enough to reach 3 V/10 Vrms test levels with a compliant CDN, EM clamp, or injection probe.
- ▸ High 43 dB ±2 dB gain needs only 0 dBm drive — requires just a 0 dBm input signal for full-rated output, allowing the signal generator to run within its low-distortion range.
- ▸ Automatic safety shutoff protects amplifier and test system — built-in shutoff activates at 30 W or when load VSWR exceeds 7, guarding against overload and mismatch damage.
- ▸ Low −20 dBc harmonic distortion for clean RF — produces a clean output signal at 25 W for reliable, accurate conducted immunity measurements.
- ▸ Front-panel LCD for real-time monitoring — displays amplifier current, temperature, RF input/output power, gain, and load VSWR throughout the test.
- ▸ USB interface for automated IEC 61000-4-6 testing — supports software integration to automate conducted immunity workflows and data collection.
- ▸ Compact 2U rack-mount design with three-year warranty — fits 19-inch racks with self-contained forced-air cooling; each unit is individually tested before shipment.
