New intelligent modular, high power TWT instrumentation amplifiers

Operating over the range DC-40 GHz with powers up to 50kW, these new compact and affordable rack-mounted amplifiers deliver the highest field strengths in the test environment, and meet the most demanding worldwide standards.

Offering superior user interface and maintainability, the PTCM series intelligent, versatile high power TWT amplifiers are ideal for applications including EMC/radiated immunity, communications, EW, radar, RF component testing and the scientific field.

The new PTCM series now features built-in self-test; advanced fault diagnostics; modular, plug and play field replaceable PCBs; and Ethernet remote control and monitoring. Thus should a fault occur, the amplifier will itself identify the source of the problem - allowing a field engineer to very quickly get it back up and running.
