Compact EMC Chambers


Compact EMC chambers are economical alternatives, both in terms of cost and space when compared to full-size chambers, whilst maintaining a high degree of measurement accuracy.

Radiated emissions pre-compliance testing and radiated immunity full-compliance testing options available. Suitable for commercial or research and development purposes.

Our range of high-performance compact semi and fully anechoic EMC chambers offer radiated emissions pre-compliance and radiated immunity full-compliance solutions.

Compact EMC chambers are economical alternatives, both in terms of cost and space when compared to full-size chambers, whilst maintaining a high degree of measurement accuracy (see specifications datasheet for full performance details).

Compact EMC Chamber Types

FAR CDC

The pre-compliant fully anechoic room (FAR CDC) is well suited as a test site for tabletop EUT. Cost reduction is achieved through the efficient design for the FAR CDC. Fixed antenna height and floor absorber layout covering the entire frequency range are all contributing factors in the reduced measurement and set-up time.

FAR M-CDC

  • Base model FAR CDC. Test volume 1 m3
  • Sizes 7.3m x 4.5m x 3.2m
  • NSA deviation: 30 MHz – 100 MHz +/- 7 dB, 101-200 MHz +/- 5 dB, 201-1000 MHz +/- 4 dB

FAR C-CDC

  • Test volume 1.2 m3
  • Sizes 7.3m x 4.9m x 3.5m
  • NSA deviation: 30 MHz – 100 MHz +/- 6 dB, 101-200 MHz +/- 5 dB, 201-1000 MHz +/- 4 dB

FAR XL-CDC

  • Base model FAR CDC. Test volume 1.5 m3
  • Sizes 8.1m x 6.2m x 3.5m
  • NSA deviation: 30 MHz – 100 MHz +/- 5 dB, 101-200 MHz +/- 4 dB, 201-1000 MHz +/- 4 dB

3m SAC CDC

The pre-compliant semi-anechoic chamber (SAC CDC) is well suited as a test site for floor standing and heavy EUTs. The ground plane turntable design can easily carry loads up to 1 t (2,205 lb). Due to the height limitation, the scanning range is limited to 2.1m (6ft). The excellent NSA performance of this chamber is one of many great reasons to choose this version of a pre-compliance chamber.

  • SAC CDC. Test volume 1.5 m3
  • Sizes 7.5m x 6.2m x 3.8m
  • NSA deviation: 30 MHz – 100 MHz +/- 4.5 dB, 101-200 MHz +/- 4 dB, 201-1000 MHz +/- 4 dB
