Elenos ET60000 Indium

The ET Indium high power product family consists of FM transmitters in which the high power output is obtained through the combination of a suitable number of E 4RU medium power amplifiers (2500 - 5000 W.), a single ETG 2RU or dual set of 2 ETG 2RU modulators (Exciters) and a combiner for the power amplifiers. The overall RF power of the models in this product series ranges from 7 KW to 30 KW and each system can be housed in a single 19” rack. These products represent the most advanced technology in terms of electrical efficiency, compactness, reduced weight, ease of use, and diagnostics. Additionally, the technology in the Elenos High Power Transmitter Line offers the most complete access to transmitter operating data, protection operation, and the ability to operate under severe environmental conditions while maintaining undiminished RF and audio specifications

Features: 

Smart Design

Ultra compact size, light weight, clean layout, ease of maintenance and repair.

Low energy consumption

Highly reduced energy consumption and significantly lowered operating costs due to state of the art nature of the design.

Reliability

Extremely high reliability and the ability to ensure continuity of the service even under extreme operating conditions due to intelligent safety protocols, Icefet technology, and Lifextender algorithms.

Total control

Accurate and detailed real time data on the operating status of the transmitter, available at the analytical level, (voltage, current, power, temperature, efficiency, safety, settings, audio levels, communications.) Local and remote management and control via Sereial Protocol, SMS, GPRS, SNMP, WEB.

Scalability

All products are designed to be scalable with the greatest advantage that any technological improvement affecting the base product is directly transferred to all equipment in the product family via upgrades.
