Windows / Loads

Depending upon the application, high power microwave windows utilize quality materials made of beryllia or alumina ceramics, Teflon or fiber materials. All of Continental Microwave's high power microwave windows are mode-free, low VSWR devices with proven reliability. Many of these windows are designed to operate without liquid cooling at the lower average power levels.

Continental Microwave's water loads offer high average power handling, low VSWR and rugged construction designed for severe environmental conditions. These loads utilize a ceramic block window as a dielectric step transformer to match the impedance of the water to that of the waveguide. These miniature loads have very high power capability. Bandwidths are limited to 12 to 16 percent and the inlet coolant temperature is approximately 40°C. Typically, loads are designed for water input temperatures between 20°C and 40°C.

Continental Microwave also offers dry loads. Extensive engineering effort goes into the design of the dry loads to ensure an even loss distribution over the length of the load, thus eliminating hot spots and prolonging the life of the component.
