Generals. This
FM amplifier is designed to operate on 87.5 - 108 MHz frequency
range for FM radio broadcasting appliances, giving up to 1050 W of
output power in continuous service.
° COLD FET™ technology. This
revolutionary technology, a DB Elettronica international patent, is
used in the KF 300 amplifier to optimize the input matching of
MOS-FET transistors in order to obtain broadband amplification
stages without any RF component. This means:
- high RF efficiency > 83%
- lower heating
- higher devices safety
- higher total reliability
- low AC power consumption
° Extraordinary RF efficiency: the
COLD-FET™ technology allows to obtain from the amplifiers the full
power rating reducing of almost 20% the devices recommended
operating DC voltage and current.
° Uninterrupted service. A
proportional foldback protection circuit reduces the output power
without any on-air interruption, keeping the RF devices always
within the safety conditions in case of:
- load mismatching
- environmental over-temperature
- cooling failure
- failure in the amplifier module
- failure in power supply modules
° Broadband: no
adjustments are required for the full power operation in the
87.5÷108 MHz band.
° The automatic
power control circuit adjusts
and stabilizes with precision (±1%) the maximum output power in the
whole band.
° Switch-mode power supply. High
efficiency (> 80 %) and oversized power supply modules grant low
heating, low AC power consumption and superior reliability.
° Low overheating. The
high cooling system efficiency limits at only + 10°C the heatsink
overheating respect to the environmental temperature. This permits
the service even in overheated sites.
° Low consumption. The
high overall efficiency means a reduction of AC power consumption
and operating costs.
° Metering. A
complete metering system placed on the front panel permits the
precise reading of: all currents and voltages of each MOS-FET stage,
forward power, reflected power.
° Remote control. It
is available as option ( KFA/RC ) a remote control interface for the
following parameters: voltages and currents of each RF stage,
forward power, reflected power, alarms status, on/off, stand-by.
