Product Description

The AGI/HP 8481A thermocouple power sensor is designed for use with the EPM series EPM-P series 70100A E1416A and the 435A/B 436A 437A/B and 438A power meters. It operates from 10 MHz to 18 GHz at levels from -30 to +20 dBm with exceptional accuracy and stability. The 8481A has extremely low SWR and is traceable to the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). A calibration port is included with the above power meters for calibration with the power sensor. This calibration provides traceability to NIST and it eliminates the uncertainties due to temperature changes and the variance in making measurements with different meter/sensor combinations.
