BRF 2/3

Band-Reject (Notch) Filters for the 160 MHz
Description
  • The BRF 2/3 is a 3-cavity notchfilter using helical resonators.
  • This filter rejects a narrow band of frequencies in the 2 m band and passes all others in the range 0 – 430 MHz. The filter can be applied both in connection with transmitters and receivers to attenuate interfering signals causing cross modulation effects. The filter can be employed as a single component or it can function as an integrated part of a complete multicoupling system.
  • The BRF 2/3 can be tuned within the complete 144 – 175 MHz band. Careful design and choice of materials ensure reliable operation over a wide temperature range.
  • The housing is made of extruded aluminium, the chassis of passivated steel, and teflon insulation has been applied in the coaxial cables and in the connectors.
  • The filter is black-vinyl coated to prevent corrosion.

Additional Information
Please Note

The notch filter resonators can also be separately tuned to three different frequencies in a “multiple notch” configuration, but the attenuation on each frequency is then only approximately
one third of the normal attenuation when all notches work together.
