ISQ's LABCEM EMC test chamber is a semi-anechoic full compliance chamber designed for testing small equipment at a distance of 3 m. The chamber has the following approximate dimensions: 8 m compartment, 5 m length and 5.5 m height, or a volume of 220 m^3.
The laboratory performs testing during all stages of product life, including precompliance testing, final testing, product inspection and validation. This process may involve a product certification body. ISQ has agreements with the Certification Body CERTIF (Association for the Certification) for swifter certification process which issue the licenses based in the ISQ test reports.
After concluding two investments in the NewSpace and Aero.Next programs we will establish capabilities for the EMC tests of the ESA ECSS-E-ST-20-07C Rev.2 standard for space applications, practically all of the military tests of the MIL-461G standard as well as the EMC tests of RTCA-DO-160G, as well as many engineering tests that are not covered by these documents, for space, automotive and other industrial areas.
