Marx Generators
Our range of Marx Generators features a variety of applications like flash X-ray, HPRF, and HPM, to test and evaluation (T&E), triggering, and material studies. Erected voltages up to several Megavolts (MV), with low source impedance, result in high system efficiency. Energy storage from millijoules (mJ) up to kilojoules (kJ) as well as ultrafast rise times as low as 200 picoseconds (ps) are a key feature of our generators.
