CAP- 3 Coaxial Current and Monitor Probe

The EG&G CAP-3 High-Power Coaxial Current and Voltage Monitor Probe is used to achieve accurate simultaneous measurements of both the current and voltage waveforms within a coaxial cable with a minimum perturbation of the signal to be measured. The CAP-3 was specifically developed as an output monitor probe for high power CW and pulse direct-drive systems, such as those used in MIL-STD-461C testing. The CAP-3 can handle peak voltages up to 2 kV and peak currents up to 20A.

The CAP-3 includes a type-N plug input connector and a type-N receptacle output connector which allows direct in-line connection on the output of the drive source. Two SMA receptacle connectors are provided for the voltage and current monitor outputs. The current monitor has a 1 ohm (1 V / 1 A) transfer impedance and a bandwidth from 10 kHz to 200 MHz. The voltage monitor has a X 1,000 attenuation (60 dB) and a bandwidth from 100 Hz to 200 MHz.
