Rackmount case

Kuhne electronic carries a significant selection of off-the-shelf as well as customized low and high power amplifier and signal generator solutions in 19” format in the RF and microwave frequency bands. Frequency range is from UHF to X-band with power ratings up to 1kW. 19”-formated rack solutions will be designed as per customer's demand and will contain amongst others components like generator, power amplifier, power supply, protection circuitry, air or water-cooling system and all related19”-mechanics. We typically go for 3HU or 5 HU systems however are open to other requests as well. Based on our modular architecture approach using mainly components from Kuhne electronic, like power amplifiers and frequency generator as well as third-party components for additional circuitry ( e.g. circulators ) we are well-known in the industry for adapting our amplifier modules to customized designs e.g. for microwave heating, RF plasma generation, RF ION implantation and many others. When it comes to test and stress components like filters, coupler, antennas etc. needed in mobile system infrastructure our rack mounted solutions will save time and money. Rack mounted solutions are ready to go with or without RS-232, USB or LAN connectivity, with the optional possibility to easily & intuitively operate and remotely control the equipment with a GUI ( graphical user interface ). Module based solutions are available with or without heatsinks and fans. If so needed CE-marking will be done together with a 3rd part lab. A 3-year-warranty backs our products and supports our customers.

Kuhne electronic provide full/half complete rackmount case, including power amplifier racks, signal generator racks and local oscillator (LO) racks. They can be produced in standard version or with customized specifications, covering VHF, UHF bands and different output power levels (10 mW for LO, 10-1000W for PAs and signal generators)
Whenever the frequency range and output power are chosen, customers can specify other features such as connector types, appearances of the front, rear panels, power switches, displays as well as touch screens, LED signal light, power supply type, heat sink, fans, etc.. Nevertheless, the racks can be designed integrated with other devices such as filters, circulators, bias Tees, and so on, which benefits the user’s utilization and measurement.
Kuhne HF Racks are flexible, reliable and user friendly. They are widely used in scientific, industrial and commercial field with different using cases, such as microwave heating, radio frequency communication, automobile, plasma technology, electromagnetic interference test etc.. One of them is the UHF 900 MHz power amplifier rack KU PA 900-200 Rack-800, which has frequency range from 895 MHz to 925 MHz, output power min. 180 W and is suitable for e.g. ISM band and wireless infrastructure e.g. 3G/4G. It can be operated directly with 230V AC power and consists of N-female RF connectors, heat sink, fans, power switches, over temperature warning and so on. Another example is the signal generator at about the same frequency band (902 … 928 MHz), which generates 50-1000 W continuous wave and is adjustable in 50 W every step. The output power and frequency can be tuned using the buttons and knob on the front panel and the values will be displayed on the screen. Other devices like 2 GHz PA rack, 260 MHz PA rack as well as 3 GHz signal generator rack have also excellent performances in various applications. Beyond the products shown on the homepage, we design racks for many companies with specific usage as well, such as multi-channel transceivers, pulse generators and so on.
