LIQUID COOLED TERMINATIONSliquid.jpg (8434 bytes)

  • Low VSWR

  • Greatest Heat Transfer

Description

MEC 80-W Series of Rectangular Waveguide Liquid Cooled Terminations operate with a VSWR of 1.05 max. Thirteen models cover the full waveguide frequency bands from 2.60 to 40.0 GHz. As dummy loads they ideally meet the demands of today's extremely high powered systems to permit operational check out without radiating RF power. Construction utilizes high -temperature absorbing material in intimate contact with the waveguide walls for good heat transfer. All units are designed to operate in any position with a coolant inlet pressure of 100 PSIG (max.) and temperature of 150°F (max). Units are aluminum with MS33656E4 ¼" flared tube fittings for the liquid coolant connections.

Finish is Chemical Film, per MIL-C-5541, Class 3, followed by high temperature black epoxy enamel.

A power sampling probe can be supplied asa   separate unit to monitor power. Typical sampling flatness is ± 0.5dB across the entire band for levels from 30 to 50 dB.

Notes:  ¶ Pressurized units are supplied on special request.

VSWR: 1.05 max. The flow rate is determined from the following formula
COOLANT: Typical demineralized water or coolanol Q=6.8P/Cp·dT Where: Q= Minimum flow rate in GPM.
Max. inlet temperature: 150°F. P= Max. CW power in Kilowatts
Max. inlet pressure: 100 psig Cp= Specific heat of coolant
dT= coolant temperature rise in °F
The tabularized values are for Cp = 1 for water and a dT of 20 °F
For different coolants, temperature rises,or power levels, a different flow rate would be necessary.

ORDERING INFORMATION

  1. Order by model No. and specify actual frequency range, VSWR and internal waveguide pressurization required.
  2. Add suffix "PS" to model number for power sampling and specify level (30 to 50 dB).
  3. Half-height terminations, other frequency ranges, flanges, coolant fittings and pressures, unique mounting arrangements quoted on request.
