5 W DIN M DUMMY LOAD 3GHZ

Power Rating: 5 W (5 watts)

The maximum continuous power the dummy load can handle without risk of overheating or damage.
Connector Type: DIN Male

The DIN connector is a high-performance, coaxial RF connector with a threaded coupling mechanism. It provides reliable connections and is used in various RF and microwave applications.
Frequency Range: Up to 3 GHz

Designed to operate effectively within this frequency range, ensuring consistent performance and impedance matching up to 3 gigahertz.
Impedance: 50 ohms

Standard impedance for most RF systems, ensuring compatibility with typical RF equipment and proper load matching.
VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio): Typically < 1.2:1

Indicates the degree of impedance matching. A VSWR of less than 1.2:1 reflects excellent impedance matching and minimal signal reflection.
Body Material: Typically aluminum or stainless steel

Provides durability and effective thermal management, essential for handling the power rating and maintaining performance.
Thermal Management: Basic heat dissipation features

Designed to manage the heat generated by 5 watts of RF power, often including simple cooling mechanisms or heat sinks.
Dimensions: Varies by model

Generally compact, with dimensions usually around 2 to 4 inches in length and 0.5 to 1 inch in diameter.
Weight: Lightweight, typically 2 to 4 ounces

Facilitates easy handling and integration into various test setups.
Connector Finish: Usually gold-plated or nickel-plated

Ensures good electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion, contributing to reliable performance.
Usage
Moderate-Power Testing: Suitable for testing RF equipment that operates up to 5 watts. Ideal for use in laboratory settings, field testing, and situations where moderate power levels are involved.
Calibration: Useful for calibrating RF systems to ensure accurate performance under moderate power conditions.
Maintenance: Helps in diagnosing and troubleshooting RF systems, ensuring they function correctly.
Notes
Power Handling: Ensure that the dummy load is used within its rated power of 5 watts to avoid overheating or damage.
Cooling: For a 5-watt load, cooling requirements are minimal but ensure adequate ventilation to maintain optimal operating conditions.
Connector Compatibility: Confirm that the DIN male connector is suitable for your equipment or use appropriate adapters if needed.
