The PT series of KW Pulsed TWT amplifiers built by IFI are high power, state of the art Pulsed TWT amplifiers specifically designed for microwave testing applications. Our elegant approach provides 1,000 to 2,000 Watts of pulse power for various frequency ranges from 1.0 to 18.0 Gigahertz in various packages that offer all the controls and communications needed for today's automated test systems. These amplifiers have field-proven reliability and unsurpassed performance as the best in the industry.

From the ground up, the PT series TWT amps are built to withstand rugged handling, whether it's being shipped to you or hauled around from site to site. Our amplifiers feature modular construction and this concept of modular design minimizes internally produced EMI signal leakage and provides easy access for field service and rapid turnaround at depot level repair facilities. Redundant thermal and airflow sensors prevent the TWT from overheating. In addition, high VSWR protection is built-in.

The PT series State of the art interface is sophisticated yet simple to use. The backlit LCD screen shows forward/reverse power indication, status, and self-diagnostic information. All the pulse TWT. amplifiers operating parameters are simultaneously available in the amplifier front panel display as well as over the remote bus. Selection switches allow you to switch the TWT amplifier to the desired mode of operation for local control if the unit is not being operated remotely. For computer automation, both an RS 232 and IEEE 488 interface are included. To meet individual requirements, the PT series TWT amplifiers can be easily customized with our available options that may be required for your application.
