Uliana Trucchi: “I’ve been in the business for 28 years, and it’s the first time we delivered a room with 1500V / 1000A filters (1000 A is tough for filters and connectors), for example. This room for alpitronic in Bolzano, Italy, is prepared to test so-called hypercharge for superfast charging. We had to install special connectors, and safety was more of an issue than normal. The chamber will be used for emissions tests from 30 MHz to 18 GHz at 10m and 3m range. Furthermore, it has a normalised site attenuation test zone (RSM as per CISPR 16-1-4), or quiet zone, of 7,5 meters at a 10m distance, which our R&D engineer Dimitrios Barakos developed.”
Uliana tells us how she experienced the completion of the room. “I’m from the north of Italy, so you should expect that working for a client in Bolzano is a home game. But people forget that this part of Italy is Italian and German-speaking and was once part of Austria. However, our colleague who oversees the installation speaks German fluidly. My client contact was Andreas Lösch, a young and highly talented engineer at alpitronic. It’s amazing to see how Alpitronic empowers young people by giving Andreas the mandate to lead this important project.”
Andreas Lösch recalls the team’s early working hours: “The Comtest team helped me a lot by starting emailing at 5 in the morning. I’m swamped during office hours, so exchanging updates before the office opens is great. We joked about the early hours we started to work, and I called us the early bird club! But, working with Comtest was a pleasure; they delivered a good technical solution for a competitive price with well-developed planning. The reactivity of the Comtest team was great: they always supported my questions and requests as soon as possible.”
Did you know that amplifiers for reverberation testing chambers can be scaleable? Picking the proper amplifier is a major factor in the total costs of a new chamber. That is one of the reasons we teamed up with Rohde & Schwarz, the global market leader in EMC and immunity test solutions, including solid-state RF Microwave amplifiers in various frequency bands/bandwidth combinations and power classes.
At our table during the 7th Annual IEEE Long Island MTTS/APS Symposium in Long Island (NY), we will demonstrate the new Javelin Tip closed-cell absorber family we developed with our sister company, Dutch Microwave Absorber Solutions (DMAS).

Our services include maintenance and validated testing. We recommend that both are executed by authorized personnel only. Our expert teams can perform preventive maintenance on RF-shielded doors, mode-stirrer systems, and positioning equipment such as turntables. We also offer validation services to see if your EMC test chamber or RF-shielded room still functions within its intended limits and avoiding unexpected down-time or product recalls at the same time.

A shielded room can perform conducted emission and immunity EMC measurements, eliminating harmful external influences, leading to more accurate and consistent test results. Being a Faraday cage, a shielded room will not only improve test results but will also form an excellent aid in protecting information and essential hardware. Comtest can assist governments, the military, financial institutions, and large corporations in protecting what matters most in critical situations. We offer the highest quality, sensitivity, and security before, during and after working with you.
