Sensor Precautions
Sensors used with the 58542 are configured in metal housings for superior mechanical performance as
well as excellent shielding.
When connecting the sensors to other devices or components,
the body of the sensor should never be turned to tighten the RF
connection. Mechanical damage to the connector can result if
improperly handled when connecting the sensors. Scratched or
damaged connector mating surfaces can lead to inaccurate
measurements.
If a sensor is connected to CW or peak power devices with power
output in excess of +23 dBm (200 mW), degradation or destruc-
tion of the diode can occur.
Diodes degraded or destroyed in this manner will not be replaced under warranty. Destructive signal
levels are higher for High Power, True
RMS
and Low VSWR sensors.
