Description

Directional power meter measures forward and reflection power between source and load
Key facts
  • Simultaneous display of forward and reverse power
  • Measurement of average power, average burst power, peak power, crest factor, CCDF and mismatch
  • 5 color touchscreen
  • Direct operation of the R&S®NRT-Zxx directional power sensors from a PC
  • Frequency range from 25 MHz to 4 GHz (sensor-dependent)

Brief description Directional power sensors measure forward and reverse power under operating conditions. These measurements are required when installing, servicing and monitoring transmitters, antennas and RF generators. The R&S®NRT family consists of the R&S®NRT2 power reflection meter and various R&S®NRT-Zxx directional power sensors. Thanks to their wide range of measurement functions and high accuracy, they are suitable for use in research, development and production. The R&S®NRT-Zxx directional power sensors are self-contained measuring instruments. They can be connected directly to the R&S®NRT2 or, via the R&S®NRT-Z5 USB interface adapter, to the PC (communications via USB). The compact R&S®NRT2 power reflection meter supports all the measurement functions of the R&S®NRT-Zxx directional power sensors. The large, user-friendly touchscreen simultaneously displays the forward and reverse power. The base unit is exceptionally easy and intuitive to use and can be remotely controlled via LAN, GPIB (R&S®NRT2-B8 option) or USB.
