for Operation
Continuous Wave Simulator
Type CWS 500D
Compact RF simulator for BCI, Stripline and TEM cell
applications. 10kHz – 400MHz ( 1000MHz)
The CWS500D is the state of the art solution in a
compact one-box design to test immunity to
conducted disturbances induced by radio frequency
fields. The CWS500D includes signal generator, RF
amplifier directional coupler, 3 channel power meter,
software and GPIB interface.
The integrated amplifier can also be controlled by an
external signal generators. ICD software supports the
test routines and controls external measuring
devices.
