Amplifier Research 2500L RF Amplifier
The Amplifier Research 2500L is an exceptional, economical, self-contained broadband amplifier, meticulously engineered for laboratory applications demanding instantaneous bandwidth, high gain, and robust power output. Encapsulated in a sleek, contemporary enclosure, this model boasts a compact design, making it a preferred choice over larger competitive units that offer similar power levels.
Designed for ease of use, all operating controls are functionally grouped on the intuitive front panel. Users will appreciate the modern, lighted push-button switches dedicated to command functions including POWER, STANDBY, OPERATE, and Low Range. Additionally, it features an output level control and a monitor meter for tracking critical operating voltages and currents, ensuring seamless operation in a variety of settings.
The Amplifier Research 2500L stands out for its impressive versatility. It incorporates rugged circuitry along with a quick-acting, solid-state crowbar circuit, which safeguards the final amplifier tubes from damage during internal arcing. A specialized electronic circuit allows for rapid gating or blanking of the amplifier, enhancing its performance across diverse laboratory conditions. Moreover, the remote control interface allows for seamless integration, enabling users to control POWER, STANDBY, OPERATE, and PULSE functions. When connected to compatible models, these operations can be managed using TTL level signals or via the IEEE-488 bus.
