GENERAL DESCRIPTION - Rev 7 (May 2019)
21/67
AMPU
HIGH-FREQUENCY AMPLIFIER
This module contains the wideband output amplifier of 20 W or 40 W and the
alarm circuits for overload or low transmitted-signal level. This module is
located in the 3 s.u. shelf.
The output impedance of the HF amplifier must be consistent with the
bandwidth of the line filter, in this way:
AMPU.00
For line filter with bandwidth of 8, 16 or 24 kHz.
AMPU.02
For line filter with bandwidth of 8, 16 or 32 kHz.
AFPU
LINE FILTER
This module contains the line filter. This module is located in the 3 s.u. shelf.
The bandwidth of the line filter is selected configuring a jumper and two
switches in the 3 s.u. backplane.
WOPU
6 s.u. backplane
It contains three alarm external signalling relays, whose activation condition is
established from the Management System, the main power-supply switch, the
fuses, the power-supply sockets, and the connectors for external connections.
WPPU
3 s.u. backplane
It contains the line transformer, the coaxial connector for making the
connection to the line, the jumpers for selecting the line impedance, the
dummy load, a setting to connect or not the coaxial-cable shield to chassis,
and the jumpers and switches for selecting the bandwidth of the line filter.
The type of backplane depends on the line-filter bandwidth in this way:
WPPU.00
The bandwidth of the line filter may be 8, 16 or 24 kHz.
WPPU.01
The bandwidth of the line filter may be 8, 16 or 32 kHz.
