Anritsu MA24004A Power Sensor, 10 MHz to 40 GHz Thermal Sensor
$2,494.00
Anritsu MA24004A Power Sensor
Overview
The MA24004A uses a Seebeck thermal element in which the temperature gradient between dissimilar metals produces a reading of true average power, independent of signal modulation. Built-in EEPROM stores calibration factor and linearity correction data, so the meter applies the sensor's own correction values.
Class-leading SWR keeps mismatch uncertainty low across the band, staying below 1.20 up to 18 GHz. A rise time under 15 ms and 2.0% linearity below 40 GHz suit both continuous wave and pulsed average measurements in lab and production settings.
