MVG - Controllers, PCUs & LCUs - Local Control Unit (LCUs), Wireless
The AL-4188 series LCUs are portable, wireless hand-held units that are connected to a PCU/positioner controller via a wireless RF link. These LCUs utilize the PCU/ controller’s basic control, limit and supply circuits. They incorporate a rotary switch for axis selection, limit indicators, and a potentiometer for speed and direction control.

More Product Information
The CISPR25 emc chamber is designed for emc compliance benchtop testing of automotive components and wiring harnesses . The MVG CISPR25 emc chamber is designed for the emc measurements using the requisite 1 m test distance and for a “typical bench” configuration of 2.5 m x 1.0 m. The unique design requires less volumetric space than traditional absorbers and still provides the volume required to have the requisite distances between the EUT and the walls and the emc absorber and the walls & ceiling. The chamber is designed with anechoic treatment that meets the specified attenuation in the CISPR 25 standard, and it is designed to meet the Long Wire testing specified in Annex J. The polypropylene emc absorber does not undergo the typical age-related deterioration of the typical “foam” polyurethane absorbers. The UH-series, polypropylene emc absorber is also applicable to the radar pulse testing required in some automotive test standards.
The EH118 EMC Horn combines stable gain performance and low VSWR with wide band frequency operation. The horn is single linearly polarized with excellent cross-polar discrimination. The unique horn design suppresses any possible excitation of higher order modes in the aperture and maintains a well-defined smooth radiation pattern in the direction of the boresight axis throughout the operational bandwidth.
Very useful where space is restricted, the EMC chamber EMC-MC will settle into almost any office space. Its small overall size results from the use of our modular SmartShield chamber lined with our AEPH HyPyr-LossTM absorber technology requiring less volumetric space than in a traditional chamber. This mini compact EMC chamber is applicable in EMC pre compliance and general Research & Development RF testing.
The LCU AL-4189 - Local Control Unit is a hand-held control box specifically designed and built to be used in conjunction with ORBIT/FR controllers and PCU’s. It provides the attendant (operator, serviceman etc.) with a high degree of flexibility in operating the system elements.
These AZ/EL/AZ positioners provide accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity in the positioning of light-duty antennas under test. Their compact and low-profile design optimizes space in test configurations as well as high operational performance, yielding the best size and weight performance ratio.
Their rugged and straightforward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation.
- The IC Inline Controller provides steady and optimal current to lights from a small package when larger, more versatile discrete controllers are not necessary.
- The IC provides continuous-on and DC gating on/off control as well as 0-10 volt analog dimming.
- All ICS models employ reverse input polarity protection.
- A wash down version is provided with any light to which it is attached is also wash down.
- 0 – 100% Intensity Control with optional DCS-MP, purchased separately, will provide manual intensity control via an external potentiometer.
The MVG-Orbit/FR performance series has recently been expanded to include the AL-428X series of medium-duty, two axes positioners. Thanks to their low profile design and advanced drive mechanism, these symmetrical EL/AZ positioners ensure accurate, balanced rotation, and controllable velocity.
Their rugged and straightforward construction ensures maximum reliability and trouble-free operation, yielding the best size and weight / performance ratio. This series includes a counter weight option which improves overall system stability and accuracy while allowing for higher DUT loads.
Typically, the unit includes the main body, precise slew bearings, DC motors, gear reducers, encoder and limit switch assemblies. The antenna interface mounting plate surface is designed with a threaded mounting hole pattern for ease of use. A large variety of options is available for this ORBIT/FR standard product family. See the Options pages in the Positioners Overview or on the website for slip rings, rotary joints, high precision encoders, speed options and more.
The AL-4164 and AL-4166 programmable controllers offer real-time control of positioning subsystems used in near-field and far-field antenna measurement systems. They may be configured to drive planar scanners and general purpose far-field positioners that are encoder-based or involve simultaneous motion.
The AL-4162 programmable positioner controller offers real-time control of positioning subsystems used in near-field and far-field antenna measurement systems. Typically, it may be configured to drive planar scanners and general purpose far-field positioners that are encoder-based or involve simultaneous motion.
