AR Has Made It Easier To Create EMC Test Facilities

New AR/Comtest Partnership Provides Everything Needed With A Single Source

Souderton, PA — July 30, 2019 — As a leader in EMC test equipment, Amplifier Research (AR) realized that testing new products and getting them to market quicker has become more critical than ever. AR knew it could help its customers by streamlining the process of creating EMC test chambers. So the company sought out a partner that builds EMC test chambers and shared its dedication to the highest quality and customer responsiveness.

AR eventually found such a partner in Comtest Engineering who has delivered over 1,000 chambers worldwide.

Now there’s a new partnership agreement between AR and Comtest Engineering that makes it possible to design, build, and service an EMC test facility using a single source provider. This relationship combines the expertise of two of the most respected industry leaders with AR providing high-performance EMC instrumentation and system design expertise, and Comtest Engineering supplying best in-class EMC chambers.

In North America, AR now distributes all Comtest Engineering products including chambers, shielded rooms, absorbers and antenna measurement chambers. AR has the capability to separately provide EMC instrumentation and EMC test systems , and can now offer complete turnkey systems that include various types of chambers and all required test equipment from one reliable source.

“AR was founded 50 years ago on the principle that providing the best solutions and service should always be our top priorities,” says John Kim, Chief Operating Officer of AR. “The partnership with Comtest Engineering allows us to do just that for the growing EMC market.”

Bas de Groot, Managing Director of Comtest Engineering, echoes John Kim’s sentiments: “Since our companies serve the same customer base and have the same high standards for quality, reliability and service, this partnership really is the perfect match. Our customers no longer have to shop around to come up with a working product, nor do they have to deal with potential warranty, planning and budgeting issues. By offering a complete solution, we take on all of those responsibilities and make it much easier while assuring the highest quality.”

ACA TMetrix is pleased to announce the release of three new products from MVG.

EME Guard XS 40 GHz: An EMF monitoring device for workers near antennas, including installation and maintenance workers, broadcast, PMR and mobile phone operators or regulatory body employees

EME Guard XS 40 GH

  • Continuous monitoring of electromagnetic field levels with isotropic tri-axis E-Field sensors
  • EMF level indicated by a LED color scale
  • Audio and visual alarms triggered when EMF exceeds the reference level
  • Frequency band of 80 MHz — 40 GHz

EME Guard XS Radar: An EMF monitoring device for workers near radar transmitters or antennas, including installation and maintenance workers, broadcast, PMR and mobile phone operators or regulatory body employees

EME Guard XS Radar

  • Continuous monitoring of electromagnetic field levels with isotropic tri-axis E-field sensors
  • EMF level indicated by a KED color scale
  • Audio and visual alarms triggered when EMF exceeds the reference level
  • Short-pulsed signal detection
  • Frequency band of 80 MHz — 30 GHz

EME Wide: A wideband field meter for monitoring and recording EMF exposure for: workers near antennas, including installers, maintenance workers, broadcasters, and cellular carrier employees—for control of compliance of the exposure level with the standards and safety perimeter definition; certification laboratories, regulatory bodies—for control and monitoring of exposure in public or private locations and site certification.

EME Wide

  • Continuous EM field level measurements
  • Frequency band of 100 KHz to 6.5 GHz

All three of these handheld devices—the EME Guard XS 40 GHz, EME Guard XS Radar, and EME Wide— have alarms that alert users to potentially dangerous exposure to radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields, as specified by Health Canada’s Safety Code 6, a safety standard protecting the health and safety of Canadians from environmental risks. The exposure limits in Safety Code 6 are set well below the lowest exposure level (threshold) at which any scientifically-established, adverse health effect occurs and take into account the total exposure from all sources of RF energy.
