The RIK154K0-40T from RFHIC Corporation is a Microwave Generator that operates from 1496 to 1502 MHz. It has been designed for industrial microwave drying, heating, and plasma generating applications. This generator provides a CW output power of up to 4 kW with a system efficiency of more than 55%. It uses GaN-on-SiC HEMT technology which offers high breakdown voltage and efficiency for high-power ISM band applications. The microwave generator has been developed to replace industrial magnetrons and other vacuum tubes currently powering heating, drying, microwave CVD, and sintering processes.
This microwave generator can be controlled using a built-in Ethernet interface and supports monitoring of parameters such as forward and reverse power, temperature, and current. It requires an AC supply of 380 V. This RoHS-compliant generator is available in a rack-mount enclosure that measures 600 x 750 x 2031 mm with N-type connector at the input and EIA waveguide interface at the output side.
