A GHz receiver for the new APEX telescope ISTT 2005 Chalmers, GöteborgMay 2-4, 2005 RF tuning range: GHz (no possibilities to extend this range except by changing the Gunn oscillator. IF frequency:4-8 GHz. At the present time the backend are limiting the IF band to 5- 7 GHz Noise temperature: 40 ± 10 K (DSB) across RF band OpticsFlat and active cold mirrors + 9 warm mirrors to obtain a beamwaist of 6 mm to match the APEX Cassegrain waist CryogenicsOld SEST SESIS cryostat. Closed cycle cooling system. 1 compressor CTI 8500 with cold head CTI1020 to produce 80K and 12K. 1 compressor Quantum J20 for 4K stage. Cooling time of 14 hours. CalibrationExternal calibration unit in Cabin A: See corresponding documentation Computer control Control system using National Instrument Fielpoint modules. Ethernet connection to the telescope network. Virtually possible to tune from anywhere. AlarmsIf temperature of mixer block exceed 4.9 K, automatic shutdown of the receiver. Bias of SIS is set to 0 mV, and magnetic coil current is also set to 0 mA.
