ETL Systems Piranha PRN-G1S-LY2-010 DC Power Inserter 3–30 MHz

ETL Systems Piranha PRN-G1S-LY2-010 DC Power Inserter 3–30 MHz

The ETL Systems Piranha PRN-G1S-LY2-010 is a DC power inserter module for RF systems operating from 3–30 MHz. It combines the signal path with selectable DC power at port 1 to supply a compatible LNB or similar equipment.

Output settings include off, 13 V, 18 V, and 24 V, with custom voltage selection from 13–24 V in 1 V steps. Maximum load current is 500 mA. Overcurrent protection provides nominal 1 A current limiting, with trip and restart functionality.

Load current and RF input power monitoring support user-settable upper and lower alarm limits through the parent chassis. Local monitoring and control are available through the compatible chassis HMI, if fitted, with remote access through its Ethernet interface.

Each hot-swappable module occupies one slot in a compatible GENUS 1U or PRN-G1x chassis. Its compact machined aluminium housing measures 175 × 45 × 20 mm maximum. Connector configurations include 50Ω SMA, 50Ω BNC, 75Ω BNC, and 75Ω F-type.

This listing covers one PRN-G1S-LY2-010 module in the selected connector configuration. The parent chassis, powered equipment, RF cables, and other accessories are sold separately unless included in the quoted configuration. The nominal 1 A protection threshold does not increase the maximum rated load of 500 mA. The datasheet does not specify 22 kHz tone or dedicated 10 MHz reference injection; 3–30 MHz describes the signal-path frequency range. RF power detection is for indication only. Specifications apply to 50Ω connectors unless otherwise stated. Confirm signal frequency, voltage, current, connector requirements, and chassis power capacity when requesting a quotation.
