Microwave Power
At the microwave frequencies of 915 MHz or 2,450 MHz, the magnetron is the economic product of choice for the generation of the required power and frequency. The magnetron is a diode-type electron tube, which is used to convert high voltage DC power under the influence of strong permanent magnets into the microwave frequencies and power of choice. At 2,450 MHz, which is the frequency used at EWI, magnetron powers from 0.2-10 kW can be obtained. The EWI Reverse Polymerization process uses arrays of magnetrons with variable power output to a maximum of 3 kW each, depending on the application.
