  • Modernization of legacy FM transmitters

 

Important Notes & Warnings:

  • Ensure proper RF protection between exciter and final stage.
  • Use feed-through capacitors on +50 V supply to prevent RF interference.
  • Adjust supply voltage according to output power for maximum efficiency (typical 1–3 dB gain compression).
  • Cooling is mandatory: adequate heatsink and fan airflow are required to prevent overheating.
  • Use PTFE coaxial cable (RG178) for RF input and RG142 for output; keep cables short.

 

Caution: Pallet amplifiers are precision devices. If you lack sufficient experience, consider a finished product instead. The amplifier may fail under the following conditions:

  • Excessive drive power
  • Over-voltage supply
  • Insufficient cooling or airflow
  • Operation without proper load

No warranty is provided for pallets. However, each unit is fully tested and delivered 100% operational.
