ESL Developes State-of-the-Art EMC and EMI Testing Facility

ESL Developes State-of-the-Art EMC and EMI Testing Facility712370

ESL Labs is developing a state of the art testing facility which will include a new Frankonia semi-anechoic EMI chamber to facilitate testing for radiated emissions, radiated susceptibility, and pre-compliance testing. With almost 30,000 sq. ft. of space, the new testing facility for ESL Labs provides room to accommodate this state of the art EMI/EMC testing capability. The EMI semi-anechoic chamber is 9.68 m (L) x 6.53 m (W) x 6.00 m (H) with a 2m diameter turntable and 2000 kg capacity. This state-of-the-art Frankonia EMI chamber means ESL Labs can perform MIL-STD-461G testing on a variety of product sizes.

The EMI chamber is comprised of anechoic cones and ferrite tiles to absorb electromagnetic radiation and to prevent any reflections from the walls, ceiling, or floor, creating a perfectly isolated testing environment. The large size of the ESL chamber allows for tremendous flexibility when making decisions on what kind of test instrumentation can be used. Common testing instrumentation will include EMI receivers, signal generators, high-power RF amplifier racks, low frequency test sets, and high bandwidth digital oscilloscopes.

EMI Testing Capabilities

EMI and EMC testing provides critical benchmarks and empirical data for many of ESL Lab's customers, especially those who may be involved in aerospace and defence, or those commercial applications where meeting specific test standards are required.

  1. Commercial Radiated and Conducted Immunity
  2. RTCA/DO-160G EMI test methods
  3. DC magnetic field susceptibility
  4. MIL-STD-461D/462D test methods
  5. Commercial RF transmitter/receiver (radio) test methods
  6. Power quality test methods

The new Frankonia EMI chamber will test to MIL-STD-461G requirements for many applications such as surface ships, submarines, army aircraft, navy aircraft, space systems, and ground forces for army, navy & air force. Testing capabilities for commercial applications include commercial radiated emissions, conducted emissions, and RTCA/DO-160G.
