DEVICE FOR PROTECTION FROM MICROWAVE DISCHARGE

摘要

FIELD: electricity. ^ SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to microwave technology and can be used for protecting a generator from microwave discharge in a waveguide transmission line. The said device has a section of rectangular waveguide and a breakdown sensor, comprising a dielectric plate and an element which is sensitive to electric arc from breakdown in the transmission line, connected to the narrow wall of the section of the waveguide and connected to an actuating relay. The sensitive element is in form of a light-sensitive device and is joined to the narrow wall of the waveguide through an optical waveguide and a channel for transmission of light from the electric arc. ^ EFFECT: design of a multiple use protective device. ^ 2 dwg
