Standard Waveguide

FLEXWELL® elliptical waveguide is constructed of longitudinallycontinuous seam welded, highlyconductive copper tube, corrugated and precision formed into anelliptical cross section. It ismanufactured in continuous lengths using a special seam weldingprocess developed by the RFSorganization.The corrugation design achieves high transverse stability,flexibility and crush strength for superiorhandling and forming at an installation. The inherent strength andflexibility of FLEXWELL® waveguideallows on location, a continuous length of waveguide to be rundirectly from a tower-mountedantenna to the equipment building, eliminating flange jointdiscontinuities and the use of bends,twists and flex sections associated with a rigid rectangularwaveguide system. Because of itsflexibility, FLEXWELL® elliptical waveguide can be easily transported to an installation site in coils oron reels and then uncoiled as required during installation.FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide has set an industry standard forexcellent electrical performance.Each waveguide has been carefully designed for low loss and low VSWRin specific frequencybands. For optimum system performance, there is no substitute forFLEXWELL® waveguide.As part of the RFS manufacturing process, all elliptical waveguidesundergo several differentelectrical tests. Prior to shipping, every length is 100% testedagain for input VSWR, and undergoesa twenty-four hour pressure test. This additional testing isperformed to guarantee conformance withpublished specifications and to avoid any problems in the field.A FLEXWELL® elliptical waveguide feeder requires less planning andreduces installation costswhen compared to a feeder system using a rigid rectangular waveguide.FLEXWELL® waveguide isavailable cut to length with factory attached connectors or incontinuous lengths for termination in thefield.
