Successfully complying with both Mexican and international regulations to perform EMC testing on electronic equipment for telecommunications and automotive industries in a Semi-Anechoic Chamber (SAC) was the key challenge for the test house giant Intertek Latinoamérica & Caribbean in Mexico.
The first shipment of our new generation of Tempest and acoustically shielded doors is ready to cross the Atlantic. How did we succeed in developing a door that meets TEMPEST shielding standards while also being acoustically proof? Over four posts, our specialist will guide you through this journey from concept and prototype, including all the challenges we faced, to the final solution.
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.

This is a man who loves the impossible. After seven years, we welcome Martijn Fokker back to the Comtest family. “I have been working at Comtest for 16 years and thought it was time for something different, but there’s something about these chamber projects that kept me coming back,” says Martijn.
Martijn has always been an out-of-the-box professional. “At Comtest, there is an R&D department that creates the most advanced solutions for our clients’ challenges. My mission is to realise whatever they come up with, and I love it! It could be anything from tailor-made doors to new types of stirrers. For example, I designed a stirrer that can handle a higher rotation speed than a regular one and a vertical sliding door with a double row of fingerstocks.”
Martijn is involved in one of our TEMPEST shielding projects, a growing market with significant potential: “Doors for TEMPEST-shielded rooms require higher standards than those for EMC or RF testing chambers, such as soundproofing and the very high operating frequency. Developments in global politics are driving new solutions, and that’s what keeps me sharp. After leaving Comtest, I worked in the maritime sector. On my return, I bring new industry knowledge to Comtest, and, of course, a lot of out-of-the-box creativity.”
