The Black Forest Testlab Journey
Behind this chamber lies an unexpected and remarkable story of courage and entrepreneurship that we really need to share with you. On June 1, 2024, two young and ambitious technicians in Germany, Josip Brkic and Francesco Iemma, moved into the building housing their company, Black Forest Testlab, with the fully compliant CISPR-16 Anechoic Chamber shown in the photo, which we built for them.

This huge anechoic chamber has a 10m test distance, making it one of the largest in our 40-year history. It was installed by our RFT-Systems representatives in Asia. Their General Manager, Luo Yuxiang, gladly shares the chamber’s specifications.
Luo Yuxiang: “This chamber meets the latest version requirements of ANSI C63.4, EN50147-2, or CISPR 16-1-4 and has a 7m diameter quiet zone with a height of 2.5m.”
On our side, the project was managed by Hanneke Mertens – Van Veen, who was impressed by the project requirements. Hanneke: “Despite the chamber’s unique requirements, we managed to process it from purchase to installation in a relatively short time, partly thanks to the team from RFT-Systems. Their client knew exactly what they wanted, which ensured a smooth and efficient process. But looking at the photos again, it’s mostly a very impressive chamber!”
