ACOM 1500 HF + 6 Meter Linear Amplifiers
ACOM 1500 HF + 6 Meter Linear Amplifiers are user-friendly and look after themselves. They are designed to safely withstand up to 300 watts of reflected power and up to 100 milliseconds duration of drive spikes. These amplifiers also continue to function with "soft" AC mains and will deliver more than half power at only 85 percent of nominal mains voltage. They can withstand voltage drops for up to 10 milliseconds and can tolerate 15 percent mains voltage spikes. This level of tolerance is especially important on Field Day, during DXpeditions, and at portable operating events where emergency power is relied upon. Please see the SPECIAL Note, below. The True Resistance Indicator (TRI) is a powerful tuning aid that helps the operator to quickly and precisely match the antenna impedance to the optimum tube load impedance. The auto-operate function (when enabled) maintains the amplifier in the OPERATE mode, thus avoiding unnecessary manual operations. Your ACOM amplifier will enable you to change antennas virtually instantaneously and allow you to use your antennas over wider frequency ranges. Broadband input matching presents a very good load to the transceiver over the entire spectrum of 1.8-54 MHz. These amplifiers produce virtually-silent QSK. The input bypassing and vacuum antenna relays are virtually silent even in the CW QSK mode; thanks to specially designed mounting hardware. ACOM 1500 amplifiers utilize a single 4CX1000A ceramic and metal radial-beam tetrode vacuum tube with plate dissipation of 1,000 watts. Tube protection includes permanent monitoring and automatic protection of plate and grid voltages and currents, as well as the exhaust air temperature. These pieces of data are essential to indicate 4CX1000A operating conditions. All ACOM 1500 amplifier status indications are explained via detailed text displayed on the dot matrix, high brightness, vacuum fluorescent display (VFD).

ACOM 2000P Commercial HF Linear Amplifiers
ACOM 2000P Commercial HF Linear Amplifiers (FCC Part 90) are the world's most advanced amplifiers designed specifically for the commercial communications market. Many of these amplifiers also see military service at stations across the globe. These amplifiers were the first to include fully-automatic tuning and sophisticated digital-control capabilities. ACOM's revolutionary 2000P amplifiers deliver high-power RF in all modes and operate on all frequencies between 3.0 and 30 MHz with continuous coverage. ACOM commercial/military amplifiers follow your transceiver's frequency changes automatically in far less than a single second. No special cables are required: Just a dot on CW or "Ah" on SSB is enough. Tuning is equally fast in digital modes. By completely eliminating time-consuming tune-up procedures, ACOM 2000P linear amplifiers give operators more time for exchanging important communiqués. At the core of the ACOM 2000P is a classic HF amplifier design employing two Svetlana 4CX800A (GU74B) high-performance ceramic and metal tetrodes. ACOM coupled these tried-and-true tubes with today's most advanced digital control technology to create an amplifier with outstanding performance, features and reliability. Measured third and fifth order IMD are typically 40dB and 45dB down, respectively. Typical harmonic emissions are as low as -55dBc (second) and below -70dBc (for third and above). Thus, the probability of harmonic channel interference, BCI or TVI is dramatically minimized. ACOM's 2000P remote diagnostic features and modular design ease fault isolation and repair. The protection system makes damaging one of these amplifiers very difficult. Information on the 12 most recent protection events is stored in an INFO BOX for remote diagnostics via phone line, PC, or Internet. Full break-in (QSK) is based on a built-in vacuum relay. Transmit/receive switching sequence is secured by a dedicated microprocessor. This is important for agencies, civilian or otherwise, who use modes that require lightning fast switching ACOM 2000P details: * Frequency Coverage: All frequencies 3.0-30.0 MHz * Power Output: 1,500W PEP, 1,200W continuous carrier; for continuous carrier transmissions longer than 15 minutes the external auxiliary fan must be installed * Hum and noise: Better than 35dB below rated output * Harmonics Output Suppression: Better than 50dB below rated output * Input and Output Impedance: Nominal values: 50 Ohm unbalanced output; Input circuit: broadband, VSWR less than 1.3:1, 3-30 MHz (no tuning, no switching); Bypass path: VSWR less than 1.1:1, 3-30 MHz continuously; output circuit matching capability: better than VSWR 3:1, automated * Automatic Tuning: Load Impedance Matching - less than 3 seconds; Band Change - less than one second; Frequency Segment Change - less than 0.2 seconds * RF Gain: 14.5dB, frequency response less than 0.5dB (50 to 60W drive power for rated output) * ALC: grid-current derived, -11V max, rear panel adjustable * Primary Power: 180-264V (200, 220 and 240V nominal taps, 10 percent tolerance), 50-60Hz, single phase, 3,500VA consumption at rated output * Complies with CE safety and electromagnetic compatibility requirements, as well as applicable FCC regulations * Size: W 17.3 x 19.7 x H 7.1 in.
