What is a Klystron Tube？

Klystron Definition

A Klystron is a vacuum tube used to amplify or oscillate microwave signals, important in various high-frequency applications.

Operating Principle

Klystrons work by modulating the velocity of an electron beam within a vacuum tube to generate microwave energy.

Applications

Klystrons are essential in devices like RADAR systems, radio receivers, and microwave transmitters.

Technical Specifications

Klystrons operate across a broad range of frequencies and power outputs, with efficiency levels suitable for specialized applications.

Types of Klystron

Reflex Klystrons oscillation

Application of Auto-Reclosing Residual Current Protective Devices in Lightning Protection for Communication Power Supplies

Application of Auto-Reclosing Residual Current Protective Devices in Lightning Protection for Communication Power Supplies

1. Power Interruption Problems Caused by RCD False Tripping During Lightning StrikesA typical communication power supply circuit is shown in Figure 1. A residual current device (RCD) is installed at the power supply input terminal. The RCD primarily provides protection against electrical equipment leakage currents to ensure personal safety, while surge protective devices (SPDs) are installed on power supply branches to protect against lightning intrusions. When lightning strikes occur, the senso

Reclosing Charge Time: Why Does Reclosing Require Charging? What Effects Does Charging Time Have?

Reclosing Charge Time: Why Does Reclosing Require Charging? What Effects Does Charging Time Have?

1. Function and Significance of Reclosing ChargingReclosing is a protective measure in power systems. After faults such as short circuits or circuit overloads occur, the system isolates the faulty circuit and then restores normal operation through reclosing. The function of reclosing is to ensure continuous operation of the power system, improving its reliability and safety.Before performing reclosing, the circuit breaker must be charged. For high-voltage circuit breakers, the charging time is g
