ACCESSORIES 

 

 

ECF-12K (Equivalent Capacitance Fixture) 

 

The ECF-12K is an equivalent capacitance fixture constructed per ANS 
C63.5:2017 and CISPR 16-1-6:2017. This is an indispensable tool used for gain 
adjustment and calibration of the active monopole antennas. The ECF-12K is 
used as a signal substitution source when calibrating the active monopole 
antennas. Refer to the alignment and calibration procedures below. 
 

SAC-212 (3 Meter Antenna BNC/N Cable) 
 

3 Meter BNC(m) to N(m) RF cable assembly providing repeatable, reliable 
performance for use in a variety of commercial and industrial applications.

 

 

SAC-461F (Cable kit for MIL-STD 461) 

 

An optional cable kit is available to comply with MIL-STD 461F/G which 
includes an appropriate length cable, ferrite bead and a right-angle bracket to 
mount to the floor of the chamber. 
 
 

ATU-510 (Antenna Tripod, wooden) 

 

The ATU-510 wooded Tripod comes with a spring loaded 1/4-20 male thread for 
mounting all of A.H. Systems and most other compliance measurement 
antennas. This wood tripod can hold up to 30 lbs. (13.6 Kg). Each wooden leg is 
adjustable independently of each other. They can adjust from 38" in length to 
63" and locked up to a 90-degree angle, allowing an infinite number of settings.
