The Bird Standard C Series Plug-In Elements cover the 100–250 MHz frequency range and are available in full-scale power ratings from 5 W through 5 kW. These 7/8 inch interchangeable directional RF elements are designed for use with Bird 43, 4431, and compatible wattmeters in 50 ohm transmission systems.
The C Series is suited for VHF high-band applications including land mobile radio, public safety networks, aviation communications, and broadcast auxiliary systems. Elements measure forward or reflected RF power depending on orientation within the wattmeter line section.
