Figure 1-1. MPA Hub Mount (Front View)
The MPAs operate with AC input (line) voltages of 100 - 240
±
10%
VAC at any frequency between 47 and 63 Hz.
All of the MPAs are the same size and nearly the same weight. The
typical model weighs 51 pounds (23.2 kg.), the overall dimensions,
excluding switches, connectors, and mounting brackets, are 10.25
by 10.4 by 20.5 inches.
These amplifiers are air-cooled. The cooling air enters the bottom
of the unit and exits the front end. (See Chapter 2 for more details.)
MPAs can operate in direct sunlight at ambient temperatures
ranging from –40 to +50
°
C.
Detailed specifications for the MPA Hub Mount are provided in
Chapter 7, "Drawings”.
The MPAs can be operated in either local or remote mode, the latter
being the primary mode of operation. Remote operation is
performed using either a CPI Remote Control Unit or a user-
supplied IBM compatible computer.
The RF Block diagram is shown in Figure 1-2.
