Waveguide Switches
RLC Electronics’ electromechanical waveguide switches offer a compact design utilizing a proprietary non-contacting actuator mechanism that requires low current. Precision machined parts insure optimum electrical performance over the entire waveguide band. These units are available in SPDT and transfer configurations, manual or remote, with a choice of coil voltages and optional indicator contacts. Solid state de-energizing circuiting insures high reliability and is available with common positive, common negative, and TTL control options.
