PerkinElmer RFS10

Rubidium Frequency Standards

The PerkinElmer Model RFS-10 Rubidium Frequency Standard is the smallest available sub-miniature MIL-Spec rubidium gas cell atomic frequency standard. This advanced design of atomic clock features rugged construction, modular design and low operating power (12 Watts). The physics package, about the size and shape of a "D" flashlight battery, employs separate filter and absorption cells for high performance and high tolerance under adverse environmental effects. Warm-up time at 25°C is less than 5 minutes to reach ±2 x 10-10 of final frequency. The unit is very small in size (2¾ in. x 2¾ in. x 4 in.) and light in weight (1.8 lbs.) and utilizes avionics grade MIL components. The RFS-10 is designed to meet the most demanding of military frequency standard requirements.
