HP 8481A
Power Sensor, 10MHz-18GHz
The HP 8481A thermocouple power sensor is designed for use with the HP
435B, 436A, 437B, 438A, 70100A, and E1416A power meters and provides extraordinary
accuracy and stability. The HP 8481A power sensor gives you extremely
low SWR, and is traceable to the U.S. National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST). A calibration port is included with the power sensor
for calibration with the power meter. This calibration provides traceability
to NIST, and it eliminates the uncertainties due to temperature changes
and the variance in making measurements with different meter/sensor combinations.
