Transmitter 500kW
500 kW SW Broadcast Transmitter OR 500 K-01/A
The 500 kW SW broadcasting transmitter type OR 500 K-01/A is a member of the RIZ's newest generation of digital transmitters.
Transmitter is capable for standard amplitude AM, digital DRM or SIMULCAST modes of operation.
The DRM Exciter / Modulator is integrated in the transmitter. The operating mode is changed by pressing a button on control panel.
Multifunctional LCD displays enable monitoring of all relevant parameters.
With completely solid state modulator and one tube in RF output stage this transmitter is superior to any other standard transmitter in the 500 kW power range.
Transmitter is automatically tunable in SW broadcast bands from 3.9 - 26.1 MHz, typically within 20 seconds (max 30 sec.).
This transmitter, as well as all other RIZ SW transmitters in the power range 20 kW up to 500 kW, is designed in accordance with IEC standards and ITU recommendations for this type of service.
