The M1555 S-band magnetron is a high-output device specifically developed for radar systems that operate within the S-band frequency. This model operates at a fixed frequency range of 3040 to 3060 MHz and provides a peak output power of 30 kW, making it suitable for high-performance radar applications that require stable and powerful signals. The M1555 is engineered to deliver reliable, consistent performance, ensuring high efficiency in demanding radar applications.
This magnetron has a heater voltage range of 5.7 to 6.9 V and a heater current from 1.1 to 1.4 A. It requires a preheat time of 180 seconds to ensure optimal functionality and longevity. With a peak anode voltage between 7.2 and 8.5 kV, the M1555 supports efficient and stable power transmission. The duty cycle is up to 0.001 with pulse durations between 0.07 and 1.0 µs, ensuring robust performance within its rated parameters.
For durability, the M1555 is designed to handle peak anode currents from 6.0 to 12.0 A and a peak anode power input of up to 100 kW. It maintains stability under a maximum VSWR (voltage standing wave ratio) of 1.5:1 at the output coupler and an anode temperature limit of 120°C.
