ETG 1000 is undoubtedly innovative, being compact, light and powerful at the same time. Switching type power supply, telemetry, all in 3 rack units.

 

The ETG 1000 is versatility itself: as a backup unit in an N+1 transmission system, or as the main transmitter in a medium-power system; thanks to its compact dimensions and very light weight , it is easy to transport, and can be easily installed where access is difficult. 

Available with internal Stereo encoder and with 2 power supplies for redundancy.

ETG 1000 model features PFC ( Power Factor Corrector) circuit on power supplies input in order to reduce below limit values first 40 current harmonics emission, as requested by technical european directives (EN61000-3-2). Thanks to this device electronic equipments better protected from disturbs when connected to the mains.

ETG exciters are very light and compact equipment, they can be used both as exciters and main transmitters and directly connected to the antenna. High power models have been developed for this application; these are very useful where compactness, lightness and low-cost are important factors.

• Easy-use
A simple and wide LCD interface ease operating parameters' reading and settings.  Final user can password-protect its chosen configurations. On request we can personalize ETG displaying on its LCD the broadcaster's logo.


• Audio quality
3 bars indicate frequency deviation (one for composite signal and two for left and right channels), with peak memory. A histogram on frequency and time axis allows precise monitoring of audio chain performances. An extremely wide and flat audio pass-band, without phase rotation ensures that the MPX signal is transmitted at high quality without stereo degradation. A programmable ALC (Automatic Level Control) circuit acts on variations of the composite MPX signal, maintaining its level within the range defined by the user.


• High Performance
  • Reliability: RF amplifier is protected by a VSWR monitor progressively reducing output power to a safe value in the case of mismatch; ETG exciters can be run in this condition indefinitely without risks of damage.
  • Stability: an ALC circuit ensures that output power remains constant throughout the operating frequency band.
  • Telemetry: Standard included in basic equipment, allows remote monitoring and adjustment of the unit's operating parameters. Just an additional standard or GSM modem or HyperTerminal software (© Microsoft Windows) is required.
  • Modularity: An expansion slot has been designed to place a Stereo Input and Stereo coder board (stereo filetr, clipper and pre-emphasis) inside ETG exciters.
