YOUR OWN MODE-STIRRED chamber

TEST WHENEVER IT SUITS YOU

Imagine being able to test whatever you want, whenever you want. No more delays or travelling to external parties. Owning an in-house mode-stirred chamber lets you control every aspect of testing while meeting all relevant EMC test standards and criteria. Fast. Reliable. Worry-free.

Comtest offers mode-stirred chambers equipped with an integrated mode stirrer system that turns stepwise during testing. Due to the low absorption of electromagnetic energy, high field strength can be achieved with moderate input power. The benefits of mode-stirred chambers include high repeatability, the ability to test heavy and large EUTs, and better representation of real-life environments.

We deliver or build your custom mode-stirred chamber at your location, tailored to the size you need. Share your challenges with us, and we’ll provide a turnkey solution from design to installation, including upgrades and yearly certifications.

We are committed to helping you achieve the best EMC testing possible.

Mode-stirred chamber

Optimize Your EMC Testing

A mode-stirred chamber is essential for advanced EMC testing, offering unparalleled control over the testing environment. These chambers are designed to create a highly reflective electromagnetic space, ensuring uniform field distribution for accurate and repeatable measurements.

Key Advantages:

  1. High field strength: The mode-stirred mechanism achieves high electromagnetic field strength with moderate power input.
  2. Real-life simulation: The stirring process provides better representation of real-world conditions for more reliable test results.
  3. Flexibility: The mode-stirred design accommodates testing of large and heavy equipment.
  4. Efficiency: The mode-stirred system allows for faster and more efficient testing, eliminating delays and reducing dependency on external facilities.

Customization and Installation: We provide tailored mode-stirred chambers to fit your specific needs, from design to installation, including upgrades and annual certifications. This ensures your testing setup remains state-of-the-art and compliant with all relevant standards.

Why Choose Us: Our expertise in EMC testing solutions guarantees a high-quality, reliable chamber that enhances your testing capabilities. With our integrated mode stirrer system, you benefit from precise, repeatable testing conditions that mimic real-world environments.

Investing in a custom-built mode-stirred chamber from Comtest allows you to perform fast, reliable, and compliant EMC testing on-site, tailored to your specific requirements. Contact us to discuss your needs and discover how we can help you achieve the best testing outcomes.

Happy clients

Test execution very close to real-life

“Comtest is extremely flexible, forward-thinking and fast.
We are satisfied with our EMC chamber, which is set up to
provide us with load possibilities far beyond anything possible
with third-party testing solutions. This makes our test execution
very close to real-life usage of our products.”

Tim Flintholm Fink
Director of Test, Validation and Engineering Support

Essential to ensure reliable testing

“NXP is located on the High-Tech campus in Eindhoven.
Here the electromagnetic spectrum is quite crowded.
Shielded rooms are essential to ensure reliable testing.
Our 3 Comtest RF-shielded facilities have never sat empty,
which speaks volumes regarding their value to us.”

Hans Schmitz
Lab manager

Clear and candor way

“The clear and candor way Comtest
communicates, made it easy to
effectively determine the scope of
the project.”

 

Rob Kleihorst
System Designer and EMC Lead, Image Guided Therapy

No risk of incompatibility

“Comtest delivers a turn-key solution,
so there’s no risk of incompatibility or
subpar calibration.”

Omar Romero
Engineer

Extremely motivated

“The Comtest team was extremely motivated
to create a unique type of chamber system that
hasn’t been built before.”

Dr.-Ing. Hanno Frömming
Managing Director

Reputation for quality

“For the expansion of our testing capabilities we worked
with Comtest for the construction of a new,
oversized testing chamber. We chose to work with Comtest
based on their reputation for quality and the fact
that they’re a Dutch company.”

Chiel Spithout
Senior Engineer

Works very fast and thoroughly

“At Emitech, there are over 40 different types of testing
chambers to fit any testing. Comtest has built many of them
and works very fast and thoroughly. They completed our 
latest
3M SAC setup within one week
We look forward to working
with Comtest on future projects.”

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.
