FLEXWELL Waveguides - Elliptical Waveguides
RFS is the original innovator of continuous seam welded corrugated transmission lines. FLEXWELL® products have been used in thousands of successful installations worldwide. They are the highest quality, best performing, and most reliable elliptical waveguides in the industry. For more than 50 years, FLEXWELL elliptical waveguides have successfully supplemented traditional rigid rectangular and circular waveguide configurations for the transmission of RF energy at microwave frequencies.
Available in a wide variety of premium and standard models, FLEXWELL is constructed of a highly conductive copper tube with a continuous longitudinal seam weld, corrugated, and precision formed into an elliptical cross-section. It is manufactured in continuous lengths using a special seam welding process developed exclusively by RFS. With FLEXWELL, RFS customers benefit from:
- Portfolio of elliptical waveguides that cover the entire range of microwave frequencies
- Unique corrugation design for maximum strength and flexibility
- Excellent electrical performance
- Low attenuation and good return loss
- 24-hour pressure test performed on every waveguide
- Reduced installation cost compared to rigid rectangular waveguides due to flexibility
- Easy transportation in coils or on drums
- Training and superior technical support
