W-Series RF Amplifiers
The AR RF/Microwave W-Series represents a premier line of broadband RF power amplifiers specifically engineered for high-intensity radiated immunity testing. These Class A solid-state amplifiers deliver exceptional linearity and low distortion across the critical 80 MHz to 1 GHz frequency band. They are the industry standard for meeting rigorous EMC requirements including EN 61000-4-3, ISO, and various MIL-STD specifications.
Built with a rugged modular architecture, the W-Series is designed to withstand 100% mismatch without damage, making it ideal for use with EMC antennas in chamber environments. The integrated touch screen interface provides intuitive local control and diagnostics, while multiple remote interfaces like Ethernet and GPIB allow for seamless laboratory automation. This scalable design ensures that the amplifiers can handle both current and future power requirements with high reliability.
The series offers an extensive range of power levels to suit any application, starting from the compact 50W1000D (50 W) up to the massive 10000W1000A (10,000 W). Intermediate models such as the 500W1000C and 1000W1000J provide versatile steps for specific testing needs in telecom and aerospace sectors. Each unit is backed by a 3-year warranty and the global support network of AMETEK and AR RF/Microwave.
Class A Solid-State Design
Delivers high linearity and low distortion for precise radiated immunity testing.
100% Mismatch Tolerance
Safely handles high VSWR loads typical of EMC antennas and test chambers.
Scalable Power Range
Models available from 50 Watts to 10,000 Watts to meet any testing requirement.
Intuitive Touch Interface
Features an integrated touch screen display for easy local operation and system diagnostics.
Unmatched Load Resilience
The W-Series is engineered with a 100% mismatch tolerance, allowing the amplifier to operate safely into high VSWR conditions without foldback or damage. This is particularly critical in radiated immunity setups where antennas and chamber reflections often create unpredictable and difficult loads.
Comprehensive Remote Management
Each amplifier features a built-in touch screen for local diagnostics and a full suite of remote control ports including Ethernet, USB, GPIB, and RS-232. This connectivity ensures easy integration into automated test systems and allows for real-time monitoring of amplifier status and performance.
