1505A RF Termination Power Standard

Brand: Tegam

TEGAM Temperature Stabilized Coaxial RF Power Transfer Standards enable the precise measurement of microwave power in the 6 kHz to 18 GHz frequency range.

These standards are highly accurate and stable with time and temperature.

They are ideal for use as standards to calibrate RF power sensors from all manufacturers.

The calibration of these standards is traceable to the International System of Units (SI) through the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) or other recognized National Metrology Institutes.

These RF Power Standards work with TEGAM’s new 1830A RF Power Meter, as well as our legacy DC Self-Balancing Bridges, 1806 and 1806A.

System configurations employing instruments of this accuracy typically achieve calibration factor transfer results normally found only in primary standards laboratories.

The Model 2505A is a feedthrough Thermistor Standard used for the calibration of bolometer, thermo-couple, and diode terminating power sensors.

The Model 1505A is a terminating thermistor Primary Transfer Standard.

The 1505A is used for the calibration of the 2505A standard and power meter 50 MHz reference outputs.

It is also useful in other applications requiring direct measurement of RF power.

The Model 2505A features a Type N female connector, and the 1505A features a compatible Type N male connector.
