Description
The Thermo Scientific CTC-3 Calibrator, also known as the Coaxial Current Monitor, is a specialized instrument designed for accurate calibration and monitoring of coaxial cables used in high-frequency and microwave applications. This calibrator provides precise measurements of electrical properties such as impedance, attenuation, and reflection coefficients, ensuring optimal performance and signal integrity in communication systems and RF (radio frequency) equipment. The Thermo Scientific CTC-3 Calibrator / Coaxial Current Monitor offers the following specifications:
– Frequency range from DC (direct current) to 26.5 GHz, covering a wide spectrum of frequencies used in telecommunications, wireless networks, radar systems, and RF testing.
– Precise impedance matching and calibration capabilities for coaxial cables with different characteristic impedances, such as 50 ohms or 75 ohms, ensuring accurate measurements and signal integrity.
– Automatic and manual calibration modes for flexibility in calibration procedures, allowing for automated calibration routines or user-defined calibration settings.
– Measurement of S-parameters (scattering parameters) including S11 (reflection coefficient) and S21 (transmission coefficient), providing comprehensive analysis of cable performance and signal losses.
– High measurement accuracy and repeatability, with low uncertainty levels, ensuring reliable and consistent measurement results for quality assurance and compliance with industry standards.
– Intuitive user interface with easy-to-read displays, graphical representations of measurement data, and intuitive controls for efficient operation and data analysis.
– Real-time monitoring of current and voltage signals during calibration procedures, allowing for immediate feedback and adjustment of calibration settings as needed.
– Compact and portable design suitable for laboratory use, field testing, and on-site calibration tasks, providing versatility in measurement applications and environments.
– Compatibility with a range of coaxial cable types and connectors, including SMA, N-type, BNC, and TNC connectors, ensuring broad applicability and compatibility with various equipment setups.
