The German company Draloric makes some great ceramic HV feedthroughs and bypass caps. For lower frequencies, they have a high K dielectric that yields large capacitances. These parts will work into t

A reply follows, I apologize for the length. I have worked on this problem a lot over the years and its a tricky one to solve at high power coincident with high frequencies: shown on the ND2X web sit

For the big power supply for my TH628 amplifier, 28 kV with 225 uF, do not use a high power bleeder. It is a pulsed amplifier, so we need all the current we can get, during each mS long pulse. There

Not likely to find an exact replacement in the USA, as Burle/RCA and Eimac were the only mainland producers of UHF tetrodes like that, and they have reduced production to near nothingness, as the mar

That sounds like it would be a potent amplifier. What was the looking glass program? Or would you have to shoot me after telling? Never heard of that tetrode, but I do have a GE industrial catalog of

I've been following the thread here with interest, combining RF amplifier pallets for 12 kW total. And I would agree that rigid line is the safest design, and is what I would use if it were my projec

Peanut butter at least has low magnetic loss tangent. I would think it would have a high and unstable dielectric loss tangent as it heats readily at 2450 MHz. Sometimes I heat it to get it flowing ag

Medium Wave broacasters usually have a big RF choke to ground on their output, installed in the ATU, especially for series fed towers. It is typically called the 'static drain' and sold by Harris, LB

The maker of the TH628 tetrode in France tests them without bias switching. With 5 Amps of idling Ib, at 28 kV, there's 140 kW kW of plate dissipation just from the electron beam with no RF drive. In

Date: Sat, 07 Apr 2012 19:50:47 -0600
If the capacitor is a blocker, then you would want it to have enough nanofarads to make a low value of Xc at the worst case (lowest) frequency, while not being far past self-resonance into higher XL.

Almost all of the original companies besides Aerovox are still making them in the USA, with oil and paper or plastic film, just what is needed. There are some standard case sizes that can be specifie

I have no idea these days, as its been a decade since I bought any at work. I am guessing around $100 for something like 4 uF. 20 should cost more. I may be way off though. John --Original message--

Even 2 kJ is dangerous. The large GE capacitors that we use at work, run about 4 kJ each in operation. In 2001, we began to loose them, explosively. Each time, the metal can peeled open like a can op

One more thing about big oil-filled capacitors: When the voltage gets above about 10-12 kV, manufacturers build their capacitors with series capacitor packs. Each one is wound paper or film with foil

Interesting. We're using the same hose, in 2 inch diameter, for the plate cooling hoses on the 200 MHz QRO amplifier at work. It works very well with high voltage, but I had no RF fields near it. 73
