Weather Radar Products
Radar is critical for today’s weather forecasting especially
for storms near heavily populated areas. These radars
assist meteorologists by detecting changes in local
weather patterns they also offer awareness of oncoming
weather patterns at a great distance that might affect the
local area.
CPI is the world’s largest producer of coaxial magnetrons,
klystrons and receiver protectors. With our experience
and product breadth, we can support most new and
existing weather radar systems.
We are unique when compare to other suppliers as we
can deliver individual microwave components or a complete transmitter. Each transmitter provides a wide range
of output power options along with custom user interfaces
and remote networking capability.
All CPI components and transmitters are rigorously tested
to ensure a long and reliable life that minimizes down time
and maximizes customer satisfaction.
At CPI Beverly Microwave Division, we provide high
quality microwave products supporting weather radar
with either Klystron or magnetron based technology.
