FMW187TR1001

Overview

The FMW187TR1001 is a precision WR-187 waveguide termination manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It is designed to absorb RF energy within the frequency range of 4.4 GHz to 5 GHz. The component features a brass body and utilizes a CPR-187F flange configuration for secure mounting. It supports an average power handling capacity of 70 Watts, ensuring reliable performance in high-power applications. This termination provides a stable load for waveguide systems operating in the specified band.

Feature Summary

• Constructs a stable RF load using a brass body material for durability and thermal management.
• Utilizes a CPR-187F flange configuration to ensure precise alignment and secure mechanical connection.
• Designed specifically for WR-187 waveguide systems to maintain impedance consistency.

Applications

• Waveguide system testing and measurement setups
• High-power RF signal absorption and termination
• Radar and communication equipment load matching

Procurement Notes

Verify that the application environment does not exceed the 70 Watt average power rating or the 5 GHz maximum frequency limit. Confirm compatibility with the CPR-187F flange standard before integration. Ensure proper thermal dissipation conditions are met during operation to maintain component integrity and performance stability over time.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a WR-187 compatible termination is required for frequencies between 4.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Choose based on the need for a brass construction and specific CPR-187F flange interface. Consider the 70 Watt power handling capability relative to the system's output levels to ensure safe and effective operation without overheating.
