High Current RF-testing

• Testing of RF-current breakdown levels for currents > 50A rms
• Improvement of quality and reliability of the product
• Not all the customer’s suppliers specify these breakdowns
• Perform the testing in-house, as part of the design cycle and QA program

AR Europe produce bespoke test system for high current RF testing applications

AR Benelux was recently presented with a unique and interesting challenge. One of their customers wanted the ability to test the RF current breakdown of the components they used (capacitors, PIN-switches, RF connectors etc.) at levels of >50A rms. The reason for this was many of these components were poorly or simply not rated with respect to the maximum RF current they can handle.

The new AE Techron amplifier model 7224 is a high-precision industrial amplifier with a bandwidth of DC – 300kHz. With High Power and a Fast Slew Rate it is ideally suited for Research, Industrial, Automotive and Military/Aerospace EMC applications such as CS2009, DO-160 and Mil Std 461.

New Compact EMC Chamber at LNE in Paris

AR France has recently completed the successful installation of a new compact EMC Chamber at LNE (French national laboratory) in Trappes, Paris.

Working with our partner ETS-Lindgren, a custom compact chamber was designed to enable the customer to perform complaint radiated immunity testing between 80MHz - 6GHz. What made this chamber unique, apart from the colour of absorber which was requested by the customer, is its size. Working with the restrictions posed by the host building, the chamber external dimensions measure 7.5m x 3.7m x 3.7m.
