Rohde and Schwarz NRPC50-B1 - Verification Kit for NRPC50

One problem is unsolvable even for the integrated DC reference circuit: detecting a possible degradation of the integrated power splitter or the test port. This is why the R&S NRPCxx-B1 option is available. It provides a verification sensor that was pre-aligned to the associated power standard during manufacture and exhibits only negligibly small deviations from this standard.

With an impedance of 100 Ω, the verification sensor is extremely mismatched, which makes it possible to detect test port degradation whose only effect is a change in the test port's impedance matching. As a result, the sensor reacts much more sensitively to changes in the source matching than does a normal power sensor, allowing reliable detection of defects.

Please note: this item is only a verification sensor. The calibration kit is sold separately.
