R&S®M3SR Series4100 modulation modes and
waveforms, from simple SSB operation and ALE
to EPM (ECCM) radio line. Intelligent radio line
management provides flexible and dynamic
allocation of transmit power, from a few watts to
several kilowatts, to support a variety of missions.

Broadband block
The broadband block is a modular component of the HF
broadband system. It consists of four 1000 W transceiver
systems, the appropriate passive, highly linear power com-
biner and the R&S®GV4190D power management unit
(PMU). The PMU allocates the radio signals of each of the
connected receivers/exciters to one, two or four power
amplifiers at the small signal level. It also permanently
monitors status reports from system components such as
amplifiers, power supplies, power combiners and filters.
In the case of coherent power addition, the PMU also en-
sures that the signals to be added are in phase.

Electrical design
The R&S®KL4192M heat exchanger has no electrical
components.
Mechanical design
The R&S®KL4192M heat exchanger comprises four blocks,
as shown in the schematic diagram on the next page:
❙❙ The heat exchanger allows conversion of calorimetric
energy from an air stream passing the heat exchanger
into calorimetric energy that is dissipated in water
supplied as cooling water
❙❙ The automatic air-release valve in the pipe feeding into
the heat exchanger releases any air that may be inside
the pipe system
❙❙ Two manual valves are installed into each of the pipes for
the cooling water supply and the cooling water return.
The manual valves are also the connection point to the
ship’s water cooling system
❙❙ The “vented reservoir” is installed beneath the heat
exchanger. It collects condensation water which is
conducted by a flexible tube to the drain connection
point of the ship’s water cooling system

(1+2+1 kW) RF power is fed from the combiners into the respective
dummy load via a coaxial cable and converted into heat.
To prevent thermal overloading of the dummy loads, the
heat has to be dissipated by the cooling water. To protect
the R&S®ZW4193M from overheating (for example, if the
water flow has stopped or is insufficient for the RF power
that is supplied), the device is equipped with three over-
heat sensors (one at each dummy load/absorber).

Overheat sensors
Three overheat sensors are installed, each on the surface
of one dummy load, to monitor the maximum permissible
temperature of the water-cooled dummy load. The sen-
sors are installed on the top of the dummy load, where the
temperature is highest.
Vented reservoir
A vented reservoir is installed beneath the cooling block. It
collects condensation water which is conducted by flexible
tubes via the drain connection of the R&S®KL4193M to the
drain connection point of the ship’s water cooling system.
