Variable Attenuators Models 3003, 3006, 3007, 3010, & 3014 Models 3053 & 3054 Manual Step Attenuators dc to 2.5 GHz dc to 6.0 GHz 1 Watt Rugged SMA Connector Specifications EXPRESS www.argosysales.com 800-542-4457 Features o New Models - Models 3053 & 3054 offer an extended frequency range to 6 GHz. o Available Express Models: 3003-100 3010-100 3053-100 3054-100 Other models may be available for Express delivery. o High Reliability - Repeatability better than 0.1 dB over frequency range and life. Weinschel patented detent mechanism, tested to 1,000,000 operations at +75C, operates dependably even down to -40C. o Product Uniformity - High volume fabrication techniques, including injection molding, stamping, broaching and thick film printing ensure a cost effective and uniform product. o Low Frequency Sensitivity - Typically 0.1 to 0.2 dB up to 2.5 GHz. o Shock Resistant - 100% spring contact system withstands mechanical and thermal shock and eliminates the need for epoxy or solder. o Wide Selection - Wide choice of attenuation ranges and increments in standard stock models. Single and dual drum configurations available. o Knob Included - Knobs for both single and dual drum models are included with every attenuator. Characters are screened on the face of the knob insert which is coated with a clear layer of epoxy for protection.
