Magnetrons

Description |

Richardson Electronics supplies a wide range of CW magnetrons. CW Magnetrons are a low-cost, efficient cross-field microwave oscillator used for the generation of continuous-wave (CW) signals. S-band (2450MHz), L-band (915/896MHz), and the new 5.89GHz CW magnetrons are typically used in industrial drying and heating applications requiring CW microwave energy. Richardson Electronics offers direct replacements for most typical configurations, ranging in power from 300w - 30kw @ 2450, 5kw -100kw @915/896/922 MHz and 700w @5.86 GHz. These replacement magnetrons will operate in systems from most Original Equipment Manufacturers. Our engineering staff can assist you in selecting the magnetron that best meets your system's specific requirements.

Richardson Electronics supplies a wide range of pulsed magnetrons. Pulse magnetrons cover power levels from 1 kW to 3 MW at frequencies from 1 GHz to 35 GHz. Proprietary cathode design offers lifetime in excess of 10,000 hours. Primary applications for pulse magnetrons are radar and medical linear accelerators. We supply fixed frequency, tunable frequency, electronic frequency tuning and coaxial types. These replacement magnetrons will operate in systems from most Original Equipment Manufacturers. Our engineering staff can assist you in selecting the magnetron that best meets your system's specific requirements.
