WG Standoff and Hangers
Dolph Microwave’s Double-Ridge Waveguide Standoffs and Hangers provide robust mechanical support for E/H-plane waveguide alignment across 0.84–40 GHz (e.g., WRD840 to WRD180 models). Constructed with lightweight aluminum and corrosion-resistant stainless steel hardware, these clamps feature Surtec chromate coating and RoHS/REACH compliance for harsh environments. Ideal for radar, satellite communications, and aerospace applications, they ensure minimal signal loss and include pre-assembled kits for rapid deployment. Custom waveguide sizes and finishes are available to meet specialized project requirements.
Product Overview
Dolph Microwave’s Double-Ridge Waveguide Standoffs and Hangers are precision-engineered aluminum clamps designed to secure waveguides in E-plane or H-plane configurations across critical RF and microwave systems. Compatible with standard WRD waveguide sizes (e.g., WRD840 to WRD180), these components operate across broad frequency ranges from 0.84 GHz to 40 GHz, ensuring low-loss signal transmission. Each unit includes corrosion-resistant stainless steel hardware and undergoes Surtec chromate treatment with flat-black paint for durability in harsh environments. Ideal for radar, telecom, and aerospace applications, they comply with RoHS/REACH standards and support custom configurations upon request.
Key Features
Engineered for versatility, these standoffs and hangers integrate seamlessly with rectangular and double-ridge waveguides, offering robust mechanical stability in both indoor and outdoor installations. The aluminum construction reduces weight without compromising strength, while stainless steel mounting kits ensure long-term reliability. Pre-assembled hardware enables quick deployment, and optional customizations—such as alternative finishes or non-standard waveguide sizes—address specialized project requirements.
Applications
Deployed in high-performance systems, these components are critical for maintaining waveguide alignment in radar arrays, satellite communication ground stations, and aerospace telemetry. They are equally suited for scientific research applications, such as particle accelerator RF systems, where precise waveguide positioning is essential.
Technical Specifications
The product line spans 14 models, supporting frequencies from 0.84 GHz (DH-840DRWSH) to 40 GHz (DH-180DRWSH). For example, the DH-250DRWSH operates at 2.6–7.8 GHz with a WRD250 waveguide, featuring dimensions of 22.42 mm (A) x 46.35 mm (B) x 127 mm (C/D). All units include a 12.7 mm mounting depth (E) and are finished with corrosion-resistant chromate coating. Full specifications, including CAD models (STEP/DWG), are available in the datasheet.
Compliance & Customization
Every unit undergoes Surtec 650/651 chromate conversion coating for enhanced corrosion resistance, with flanges polished to minimize RF leakage. Standard models are painted flat black, but alternative colors or finishes (e.g., powder coating) can be specified. Dolph Microwave’s engineering team supports custom designs for unique waveguide geometries or environmental requirements.
