Bird 4410 Multipower Wattmeter
|
![4410A](bird/4410A.gif) |
BIRD 4410A Multipower Meter The 4410A high-sensitivity wattmeter is a solid choice for field-service applications where the greater dynamic range of the plug-in elements substantially reduce the number of elements needed to cover multiple power and frequency ranges. It is also well-suited to laboratory work where power levels as low as 2 milliwatts must be measured with high accuracy.
Each 4410A wattmeter plug-in element is capable of reading seven different power ranges cover 0.002 to 10,000 watts. The power ranges of the different elements overlap and include: 0.00210 W, 0.02100 W, 0.21000 W and 210,000 W. All ranges are in frequency bands from 200 KHz to 2300 MHz. Any one of the seven power ranges is selected by a rotary switch located on the front of the wattmeter. Forward and reflected power measurements are accomplished by rotating the element.
Exceptional ±5% of reading accuracy is achieved via a built-in temperature compensation circuit. This stated accuracy applies from 100% of full scale down to 20% of full scale across all seven ranges.
|
Power Range: |
2mW to 10 W, 20mW to 100 W, 200 mW to 1 kW or 2 W to 10 kW full scale in one single Plug-in Element. Any Bird series 4410 Element may be used. |
Frequency Range: |
200 kHz to 2.3 GHz CW or FM |
Insertion VSWR: |
with N connectors 1.25 max to 2300 MHz |
Accuracy: |
±5% of reading for any reading above 20% of the Power Range selected for FM or CW signals without AM. This accuracy is maintained for a full 37 dB dynamic range with each 4410 Element (except # 4410-1 200 KHz535 kHz which is accurage to ±10% of reading, and 4410-15 1.01.8 GHz and 4410-16 1.82.3 GHz which are accurate to ±8% of reading). |
Ambient Temperature Range: |
Elements 4410-1 through -8, and -10 through -16 are temperature compensated for rated accuracy from 0°C to 50°C (32° to 122°F), and 4410-20 through 27 from 20°C to 30°C (68° to 86°F). |
Over-Range Protection: |
To 120% of nominal full scale (i.e. 12 W, 120 W, 1,000 W, or 12,000 W). No damage or degradation to the unit will result, regardless of the Range Selector Switch position. |
Battery Life: |
24 hours min. with standard 9V Alkaline transistor battery (NEDA No. 1604A supplied) |
Connectors: |
QC Type (Female N normally supplied) |
Nominal Size: |
(includes connectors) 6 7/8 H x 5 1/8 W x 3 5/8 D |
