28、 Chapter 1 Introduction This publication covers the Termaline Coaxial Load Resistor Model 8251D208. The Termaline Coaxial Load Resistor will generally be referred to as a load thoughout this manual. This chapter contains introductory information including product specifications; items supplied; and

29、accessory items available. Purpose and Function The Bird Termaline Coaxial Load Resistor is a portable, general purpose 50 ohm coaxial transmission line termina- tion. The load is a low reflection, nonradiating termination for coaxial transmission lines operating in the UHF (470 - 860 MHz) band. The

30、 load is rectangular in shape with transverse fins encas- ing a dielectric coolant cylinder. A retractable handle is re- cessed in the radiator fins. The front and rear fins are made of heavier gauge material and are bent 90 to form bottom mounting flanges. These flanges are supports for free stand-

31、 ing use, or brackets for fixed mounting. Holes are provided in the flanges for fixed mounting. ApplicationsUse these loads: sAs a substitute antenna for tuning transmit- ters under nonradiation conditions or making routine test and adjustments. sAs a substitute for any circuit loading ele- ment. sT

32、o measure, with a suitable indication device, the power output of any coaxially transmitted signal within their range. Performance Characteristics and Capabilities The Model 8251D208 load can absorb up to 1000 watts con- tinuously and dissipate it harmlessly as heat over a fre- quency range of 470 t

33、o 860 MHz. The actual VSWR, “voltage standing wave ratio”, will not exceed 1.065:1 over the fre- quency range stated. Power and Utility Requirements This load is a passive device that is self-contained and re- quires only RF input to function. 1 Environmental Requirements The load should be operated

34、 in a dust and vibration free, dry environment. Allow at least 6 inches (153 mm) of clear- ance around the unit to permit adequate heat dissipation. Items SuppliedsLoad Resistor sInstruction Book Items Required Matching connector on the coaxial transmission line to which the load will be attached. T

35、ools and Test Equipment Screwdriver and an adjustable wrench will be necessary for disassembly of this equipment. A resistance bridge or ohmmeter with an accuracy of one percent or better at 50 ohms is useful for checking the resis- tance value of the RF section assembly. 2 Bird Model 8251D208Termal

38、e 73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC. 4 Bird Model 8251D208Termaline Coaxial Load Resistor Chapter 2 Theory of Operation This load consists essentially of a carbon film resistor on a ceramic substrate immersed in a dielectric coolant. The re- sistor, individually selected for its accuracy, is enclosed in a spe

39、cial exponentially tapered housing. This provides a lin- ear reduction in surge impedance directly proportional to the distance along the resistor. When surrounded by the di- electric coolant, the characteristic impedance is therefore: 50 ohms at the front (connector end), 25 ohms at the mid- point

40、(to compensate for the resistance already passed over), and zero ohms at the rear where the resistor joins the hous- ing, forming the return conductor of the coaxial circuit. This produces a uniform, practically reflectionless line termina- tion over the stated frequencies of the load resistor. Cool

41、ingThe dielectric coolant was chosen for its desirable dielectric and thermal characteristics. Cooling of the load is accom- plished by natural fluid and air convection currents. The 1.1 gallons (4.2 liters) of dielectric coolant carries the electri- cally generated heat from the resistor to the wal

42、ls of the cy- lindrical cooling tank. This tank is encased in a set of radiating fins, constructed from heavy gauge aluminum al- loy, and firmly pressed into the cylinder. The heat from the dielectric oil is transferred to the surrounding air by the fins. Expansion of the coolant, caused by the rise

43、 in its tempera- ture, is allowed for by the use of an expansion tank located on the upper rear of the load. The expansion tank is equipped with a spring loaded vent for relief of the internal pressure. 5 6 Bird Model 8251D208Termaline Coaxial Load Resistor O-ring seal Figure 1 Shipping Plug O-Ring

44、Seal Figure 2 Vent Plug Chapter 3 Installation CAUTION This equipment is designed for operation in a horizontal position only, with mounting brackets down. Do not operate in any other manner. The load is to be installed, and operated in a horizontal posi- tion. The load is shipped horizontal, and no

45、rmally stands on its base brackets. The load may be used for portable operation and stand free, or it may be secured to a bench top or other flat surface for a fixed installation. Mount the load with four screws of up to 1/4 inch diameter. Fasten the screws through the four 9/32 inch holes in the mo

46、unting brackets that arranged in a 5-1/8 inch x 15 inch (130.2 x 381 mm) rectangle. LocationFor operation above 300 watts allow at least six inches (153 mm) of clearance on each side. Operate the load in a hori- zontal position only, with the handle on top. Shipping and Vent Plugs WARNING The vent plug must be used at all times when the unit is in operation or cooling. Failure to do this could result in damage to the equipment and
