EPM-P series power meters
The EPM-P series power meters provide peak, peak-to-average ratio,
average and time-gated power measurements. For peak, peak-to-average
ratio and time-gated measurements, the EPM-P series must operate
with the E-series E9320 power sensors. For average power measurements only, the EPM-P series power meters are compatible with all the
8480 series power sensors, the E-series CW, the E-series E9300 average
power sensors, and the E-series E9320 power sensors.
The standard EPM-P series power meters include:
• Single-channel power meter, order E4416A
or dual-channel power meter, order E4417A
• Input sensor connector(s) on front panel
• Reference calibrator connector on front panel
• Hardcopy English-language Installations Guide
• Hardcopy English-language User’s Guide and
Programming Guide (Option ABA)
• CD-Rom, the English-language and localized User’s Guide,
