About the QKS1350
The QKS1350 is a pulse magnetron manufactured by e2v Technologies. C-band pulse magnetron at 5.5 GHz with 250 kW peak power for long-range tracking and fire control radar systems.
Key ratings of the QKS1350 include frequency 5.5 GHz, frequency band C-band, type Pulsed, peak power 250 kW, average power 1.25 kW and pulse width 5.0 µs.
Typical applications are long-range tracking radar, fire control systems, weather radar and air defense systems. Notable features: 250 kW C-band peak output, long-range capability, high average power and water-cooled anode.
Pulse magnetrons deliver very high peak power in short pulses and are used in marine and air-traffic radar, weather radar and pulsed scientific systems. They are driven by a pulse modulator, typically switched by a hydrogen thyratron, so the magnetron and modulator switch tube are often replaced together during maintenance.
PartnerTubes supplies the QKS1350 worldwide from Groningen, the Netherlands — availability, lead time and price are confirmed per enquiry. Our team can help with equivalent and cross-reference types, sockets and accessories, and supply programmes for OEM and maintenance customers. Interchangeability must always be confirmed for the specific equipment.
