Waveguide Air Pressure Unit
Prevents arcing of radio frequency energy
Dry air is essential to prevent arcing of radio frequency energy,
which can damage the waveguide and radar power amplifier.
The Waveguide Air Pressure Unit from Parker domnick hunter is
designed to provide a continuous supply of clean, dry compressed
air that prevents arcing and improves power handling duties on
ground based waveguide radar systems.
Air is filtered and dried to remove water vapour and potentially
damaging particles down to 1 micron in size.
Dual compressors provide a fail-safe security function; in the event
of a primary compressor failure, a secondary compressor
maintains pressure to ensure that waveguide system performance
is maintained.
The unit interfaces with radar Built In Test Equipment (BITE) to
indicate high temperature and low pressure and also has local
“normal operation” alarm neons on the facia panel.
