HP EPM/E-Series Family of Power Meters and Power Sensors

The EPM series power meter and E-series sensor combination is ideal for measuring CW signals from 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz (depending upon the selected sensor), over a 90 dB dynamic range from -70 dBm to +20 dBm.

EPM series power meters are also compatible with all HP 8480 series sensors. This combination forms a high precision, average power measurement system operating in the frequency range 100 kHz to 110 GHz (depending upon the selected sensor) over a 50 dB maximum dynamic range.

This product family includes

HP E-Series E4412A Wide Dynamic Range Power Sensor

HP E-Series E4413A Wide Dynamic Range Power Sensor

HP EPM Series E4418A Single-Channel Power Meter

HP EPM Series E4419A Dual-Channel Power Meter

[ Features ]

Up to 200 readings per second (using the E-series sensors and the HP E4418A power meter)
Double (x2) the measurement speed using HP 8480 series sensors and the EPM series power meters (Compared to HP 437B and 438A)
90 dB dynamic range (from -70 dBm to +20 dBm)
EPM series power meters have a high resolution LCD display (with LED backlighting), large characters and a split screen format provide easy viewing of information
EPM series power meters are the same height and width as the HP 437B and HP 438A -- making them easy to substitute in rackmount systems
HP E4418A is code compatible with the HP 437B and the HP E4419A is code compatible with the HP 438A
EPM series power meters are SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) compatible
