The MSF1425BK Magnetron is a high-power X-band magnetron designed for Kelvin Hughes RADAR systems. It operates between 9380 – 9440 MHz, providing a peak output of 10.5 kW. This makes it ideal for use with Bridgemaster radar systems. The magnetron ensures accurate and reliable radar signals, which help improve navigation safety.
One of its key features is the fast warm-up time of just 60 seconds. As a result, the magnetron is ready for use quickly, minimizing delays. It has a peak anode current range of 4 – 6 A and an average anode power consumption of 35 W. The MSF1425BK also has an energy-efficient duty cycle of 0.001, which helps save energy during operation. Moreover, it has a voltage pulse rise rate of 100 kV per microsecond, which guarantees stable performance in difficult conditions.
The MSF1425BK Magnetron is built to be reliable and efficient. It ensures that vessels can maintain optimal radar performance in various environments. Whether navigating crowded ports or open waters, the magnetron delivers powerful and consistent radar output. Thanks to its fast warm-up time and strong output, the MSF1425BK is a trusted choice for marine radar systems.
