he FM Radio Exciters from CTE INTERNATIONAL are suitable for connection to solid-state and tube amplifiers, thus assuring outstanding performance for any transmitter array. With their output power up to 60W (VL 62 model) they may also be used as "standalone transmitters". Modern design, powerful microcomputer, options and high quality transmission are the advantages evident at a glance.

VL 1000 PLUS 1 KW VHF FM MOSFET AMPLIFIER CTE International has been producing and dealing successfull solid state FM Transmitters since 1975, and is now proud to announce the production of a new and modern 1 kW FM amplifier. High gain MOSFETs transistors and systematic use of state-of-the-art manufacturing methods, have helped us to find effective solutions for the design this new equipment. The amplifier, of simple and rugged construction, is able to satisfy the requests of all those end-users looking for top-quality equipment at reasonable prices.

CHARACTERISTICS • 35 Kg weight only, for easy moving and maintenance. • Better operation temperature of the equipment, thanks to the air filter placed on the front panel and to the optional air convey to be placed in the rear part of the unit. • Impressive number of utilities, controls and data, with local or remote record facility. • Extremely competitive price.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The new 1 kW FM Transmitter from CTE International is composed of a 1 KW amplifier and a 35W Exciter. In the exciter stage of the transmitter, the frequency and the output power are controlled by a microcomputer. In the stereo version, the stereo generator, typically has top-quality performance. Three SCA auxialiary inputs and an optional built-in deviation limiter allow a high flexibility of installation to meet the needs of any end-user. A ultra-low noise performance with a high spectr um purity, complete the general features of this stage. The VL32 Exciter is able to supply up to 35W to the input of the amplif ier. The RF power input is divided by 4 by means of a power splitter and is then connected to 4 x BLF278 MOSFETs. The power amplifier is lightweight with broad-band characteristics over the entire VHF FM range. The compact design and the inter nal configuration of the modules, allow excellent access to all components. All the power components are generously over-rated to ensure excellent reliability. The cooling system of the equipment makes possible to keep all components w hich dissipate heat, at low temperature figures, thus permitting reliability and very high MTBF. Power Supply Stage, Double Conversion Voltage (mains direct) The Power Supply stage has been designed accor ding to a Double Conversion configuration: the first stage transforms the 230Vac from the mains to 400Vdc; in this stage, a power factor regulator is included; the second sta ge trasforms the voltage figure from 400Vdc to 48Vdc, thanks to a MOSFET device working at 30KHz frequency. A short circuit protection has been included in this stage. 1 KW Power Amplifier Module The input power of the module is connected to a Wilkinson splitter, and is then sent to the input of two 3dB couplers. In case of failure of one of the MOSFETs, the unbalanced power is connected to four resistors. The amplifier circuit is composed of four BLF278 MOSFETs which permit a very high redundancy thanks to four- level modularity. The MOSFETs are provided with a bias circuit that assures the optimal impedance matching.

The temperature, the Voltage and the RF Power figures are controlled by the microprocessor board. Filter And Directional Coupler This module is composed of the Lo w Pass Filter and of the Dir ectional Coupler.The filter is “constant matching” type and includes two “(“ network sections, with second harmonic-traps devices. The directional coupler has been realized with microstrip technology. Microprocessor Board & Display Board It is the control unit of the transmitter. This module ensures the correct sequence of the functions and monitor s all the alarm conditions of the amplifier. On the front panel, a clear Liquid Cristal Display permits simultaneous indication of all the parameters that can be selected in the menu. The messages and commands are available at the remote control interface in parallel (relay) and in series (RS 232 and RS 485) Main functions: • ALC setting from 500W to 1 kW (internal trimmer) • Warning: in case the ambient temperature reaches a threshold figure close to the maximum value, as option, it is possible to reduce the output power of 3dB. • Internal clock with detailed record of the failure events. • Telecontrol and telemeasurement via RS232 and RS485 interface. Alarms: • Auxiliary voltage failure. • Unbalanced Output Power. • Power Supply and Power Amplifier modules overheating. • Excessive VSWR. • Power Supply Failure. • Power Supply Overload

OPTION B

OPTIONS

THE EQUIPMENT CAN BE SUPPLIED WITH THE DIVERSITY SYSTEM OPTION. IN THIS CASE, IT IS NECESSARY TO PLACE TWO RECEIVERS SET AT TWO DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES FOR A FREQUENCY DIVERSITY CONFIGURATION, WHEREAS TWO RECEIVERS AT THE SAME FREQUENCY FOR THE SPACE DIVERSITY CONFIGURATION. ANY RECEIVER CAN OPERATE AS “MASTER” OR AS “SLAVE” AND, IN CASE OF FADING, THE SWITCHING OPERATION OF THE DEMODULATED OUTPUT SIGNAL IS AUTOMATICALLY PERFORMED BY MEANS OF THE DETECTOR SIGNAL DEVICE OF THE RECEIVER.
