Different grades of calibration kits enable VNA users to select the most suitable for specific accuracy requirement. A typical kit would include waveguide to coax adaptors, fixed terminations, a sliding termination, offsets, flush shorts and a waveguide section. Kits are supplied in a fitted hardwood case complete with connecting hardware, data disc and handbook.
Three grades of calibration kits and components are available that enable VNA users to select the one most suitable for the analyser type and measurement requirement. Various manufacturing techniques are employed and selected according to waveguide size and required accuracy.
Critical components in each grade of kit have defined accuracies – a feature unique to Flann Waveguide Calibration Kits. Flann calibration kits contain all the components necessary to fully calibrate VNAs configured for waveguide measurements. A typical kit would include waveguide to coax adaptors, fixed terminations, a sliding termination, offsets, flush shorts, and a waveguide section.
Flann Calibration Kits have been developed in close cooperation with manufacturers and users of network analysers. Kits are available in each of the three grades, suitable for analyser configurations requiring OOL, TRL and LRL calibration kit styles. The selection of a calibration kit and its contents is largely dictated by the combination of analyser model, test set model and type of calibration routine to be implemented, i.e. full 12 term, single path 2 port, reflection only or TRL/LRL.
- OOL – Offset/Offset/Load
- TRL – Thru/Reflect/Line
- LRL – Line/Reflect/Line
Kits are supplied in a fitted hardwood case complete with connecting hardware, data disc and handbook.
