5:1 Baluns/Ununs

5:1 CUBE™ Unun – Model CU-5-1500 (50:250 Ohm, 1.8-61 MHz, 1.5KW PEP)

Application. For traveling wave, end fed or portable 20-31 foot vertical antennas the 5:1 unun makes a good transformer for converting 50 ohm coax to a 250 ohm feed point. If you use the antenna on multiple bands, the feed point impedance may not always be 250 ohms and use of the unun at high (>350 ohms) or low (<100 ohms) will require reduced power input or the unun may have its power ratings exceeded and damage to the unun may occur. The (5:1 conversion ratio will change for loads other than 250 ohms unbalanced.

Typical application:

CU 5 1500 antenna - 5:1 Baluns/Ununs

Also available as a balanced output – CB-5-1500

Model CB-9-1500 is a 9:1 multi-core, balanced output balun housed in a water resistant enclosure with top stud/wingnuts (TS) or Eye bolts (halyard top hoist, side eye bolts/outputs) used to translate a 50 ohm input up to 450 ohms at RF power levels up to 1500 watts PEP when used with a matched load. With matched 450 ohm load the SWR over the frequency range 1.8 to 61 MHz is less than 2:1 on the coax feed side. Actual SWR is under 1.25:1 from 1.8-180 MHz so very useful for 30-150 MHz also - see graphs for specific details

Features

* Wide Frequency Range 1.8-161 MHz, usable to 180 MHz < 1.25:1 into resistive load

* High Power, 1500 watts PEP (up to 61 MHz)

* Convenient side tab mounting feet
