The Kalmus 827FC is an RF power amplifier engineered for industrial and laboratory applications demanding high-performance amplification across a broad frequency spectrum. Built on rugged RF power MOSFET design, it delivers up to 500 Watts output power in the lower frequency band with a typical power gain of 50 dB. The amplifier operates linearly across CW, pulse, and sweep applications without band switching, maintaining low compression at rated power and minimal distortion for precise signal fidelity.
