How to ensure the accuracy of RF coupler
RF Coupler Accuracy Maintenance Guide
Select High-Quality Components
Choose RF couplers from reputable manufacturers that use high-precision processing technology and stable materials to ensure baseline accuracy from the source.
Key selection criteria:
- Prioritize products with strict factory calibration and quality certification
- Verify material stability and manufacturing precision
- Ensure components are free from inherent defects that could impact accuracy
Standardize Installation Process
Ensure firm and precise connections during installation with tight interfaces to prevent signal transmission instability.
Installation requirements:
- Use impedance-matched RF cables
- Minimize cable bending and stretching during laying
- Prevent signal loss and reflection issues
Improper installation can cause permanent accuracy degradation. Always follow manufacturer's installation guidelines precisely.
Control Working Environment
Maintain the coupler in a stable environment to prevent accuracy fluctuations caused by external factors.
Environmental controls:
- Avoid temperature extremes and thermal cycling
- Shield from strong EMI sources
- Maintain stable humidity levels
Regular Calibration & Maintenance
Implement scheduled calibration and maintenance routines to preserve long-term accuracy.
Maintenance protocol:
- Perform periodic calibration with professional equipment
- Clean interface contacts and surface dust regularly
- Verify accuracy remains within specified tolerances
Correct Operation Practices
Follow proper usage guidelines to prevent premature wear and accuracy degradation.
Operational guidelines:
- Minimize connector mating cycles
- Never exceed rated operational limits
- Avoid mechanical stress on components
