This integrated industrial microwave power system uses a CPI
VKS-7960A klystron, designed for industrial service, as the
energy source. By using the high-efficiency, 2.45-GHz, 60 kW
CW klystron in combination with modern control and powersupply
technology, CPI is able to furnish a compact, userfriendly,
cost-effective industrial system.
The systems control center is an embedded microprocessor
architecture which provides flexibility in selecting system
operating parameters. Operation is initiated by two independent
external enable commands. Control of the system is through a
web-based browser via a direct Ethernet or web-based
connection. Operational data is logged in the controllers onboard
flash memory. The logged data may be uploaded to the
external computer via the Ethernet connection for use in offline
troubleshooting or other purposes.
