The Dependable Microwave Source

When it comes to industrial microwave power, Ferrite delivers with the GET 2024 Transmitter.
Around the world hundreds of these transmitter units are used every day to prepare food products
for people in Asia, Europe and North and South America. It's also used extensively for materials
processing. What makes this transmitter so popular is its durable design, reliability, safety and
cooking and tempering performance. It is the basic building block for all of Ferrite's industrial micro-
wave equipment, which operates at either 915 MHz or 896 MHz.

Advanced Technology

The power for Ferrite industrial microwave ovens is supplied by the GET 2024 transmitter which
incorporates the latest in electronic and microwave technology. It is a proven, rugged and depend-
able transmitter that provides reliable and safe operation in all kinds of applications.
    Transmitter control is based on use of a local or remote, via block I/O, Allen-Bradley PLC. Precise
control, of filament power during operation at varying power levels is insured through the use of a
programable constant current power supply.

A Powerful System

The GET 2024 van be used as a single, self-contained microwave power unit, where it provides
power in the 5 kilowatt to 75 kilowatt ranges. Or, it can be used in combination with other Ferrite
transmitters to boost cooking and tempering power up to 750 kilowatts.
   GET 2024 transmitters are fully compatible with other Ferrite industrial microwave equipment such
as the MISSING Continuous Cooking System, MIP 12 Continuous Tempering Tunnel, and the
MIP 10 Batch Processor.

Precise Computer Control

Each transmitter is controlled by a Programable Logic Controller (PLC) processor package in
either a standalone or a remote block input/output that can interface with a remote operator work
station. It performs the control software for the transmitter.
   The operator workstation provides functional control of the system to: display the current status of
the applicator and transmitter, do local maintenance, to provide initial troubleshooting.

Ferrite System Monitoring Option

Our exclusive Information System management System (AIMS) permits management personnel to
monitor many aspects of the system, including transmitter operation, from a remote PC location. This
option lets the supervisor view any parameter, such as power levels, oven belt speed and through-
put, alarm history, throughput history, and oven arcing on animated, full color graphical screens.

Warranted for Dependability

Both in- and out-of-warranty service support is provided by Ferrite Certified field technicians.

Water Hookups for Cooling System

Ferrite microwave transmitters are water cooled through a heat exchanger using city or local water
supply. The system includes a one-inch inflow and outflow pipe. Flow rates depend on the temperature
of water entering the heat exchanger.

Reliable, Dependable Industrial Systems

The GET 2024 Transmitter system is designed to withstand the rigors of conditions found in the food
processing environment.

Microwave Isolation

Each GET 2024 transmitter is electrically isolated from the process oven by an integral microwave
circulator that helps provide long magnetron tube life. The transmitter can be located directly adjacent to,
above or below an applicator cavity. Because of the efficiency of Ferrite's waveguide power transmis-
sion, it is possible to install the transmitter in a remote location.

Transmitter Controls

All controls for typical transmitter operation are found on the front of the enclosure, though remote control
panel operation is possible. This ensures consistent, uniform and efficient operation.

Safety

Interlocking access doors on the transmitters meet all applicable government (OSHA and Health and
Human Services) safety standards, and provide the safest operating environment available.
    Fittings are provided on the oven to interface with an optional, customer-supplied fire suppression
system. Light and temperature sensors in the oven send signals to trigger the system.

Radio Frequency Interference

The Ferrite GET 2024 meets all applicable Federal Communication Commission Standards for
electromagnetic interference, as well as Worldwide Standards for Safety.

Export: Ferrite provides many other configurations for worldwide use. Specifications available on request.
