Shielding Effectiveness
Your industry, our focus
Eurofins E&E North America is one of just a few labs that employs an advanced in-house reverberation (mode-stirred) chamber for testing shielding effectiveness (SE).
Eurofins E&E North America can easily develop sound engineering measurement techniques to quantify the SE of your product. Our process involves creating detailed SE Test Plans used to insure accurate and repeatable test results.
We have years of experience to assure our customers that the evaluation reflects the electrical attenuation performance of the material. Often times, our test report becomes supporting documentation for our customer’s end-user contractual requirement, where Independent Test Laboratory results verify the electrical performance of the material being tested.
We can use standardized SE test methods, or use standards such as IEEE-299 or ASTM E 1851 or MIL-STD-285 as procedural guides to the evaluation.
MET also tests shielding effectiveness to these military standards:
- MIL-DTL-83526
- MIL-PRF-28876
- MIL-PRF-85045
Our testing of the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of planar material to ASTM test method D4935-1 has benefitted from the pictured test fixture. Dynamic range of greater than 80dB is achievable.
