When EMC matters, the world calls TESTUPS!

A 9×6×6 m semi-anechoic chamber,
engineered to spec.

Welded-steel shielded enclosure with hybrid ferrite-tile and pyramidal-absorber lining on every interior wall and ceiling. Built for radiated emissions, radiated immunity, and ALSE-method automotive testing — calibrated, validated, and signed off by an ISO/IEC 17025 lab.

Overview

Built for full-compliance radiated testing — vehicle, harness, or sub-component.

This 9×6×6 m semi-anechoic chamber (SAC) is configured for the ALSE method defined in CISPR 25 and the radiated-immunity setups in IEC 61000-4-3 and ISO 11452-2. Floor remains a conductive ground plane; walls and ceiling are fully covered with hybrid absorbers — sintered ferrite tiles for the 30 MHz–1 GHz band, pyramidal foam stacked over the ferrite to extend absorption past 18 GHz.

The shell is a fully-welded modular galvanised-steel pan-panel system with a continuous RF-gasketted pneumatic door. Validated NSA, sVSWR, field uniformity, and shielding effectiveness across the full frequency range, with documented results delivered before site acceptance.

Inside the build

Six engineered subsystems, integrated and validated together.

Every chamber TESTUPS delivers is a single mechanically- and electrically-bonded assembly — shell, absorbers, door, HVAC, lighting, and grounding — designed and signed off as one system.

Welded shielded shell

Modular galvanised steel pan-panel construction. Continuous welded seams, RF-gasketted door, fiber-optic and waveguide-below-cutoff feedthroughs.

Hybrid absorber lining

Sintered ferrite tiles cover 100% of inner walls and ceiling, layered with pyramidal polyurethane foam to extend absorption to 18 GHz and beyond.

9 × 6 × 6 m clear interior

324 m³ of usable volume. Ø 3 m quiet zone, 3 m measurement distance, room for full vehicle, 5-axis bench, or harness setup.

Mast + turntable ready

Pre-engineered mounts for fiberglass antenna mast (1–4 m) and Ø 2 m flush-mount turntable, with cable trenches and fiber feed.

Pneumatic RF door

1.2 × 2.1 m clear opening, double knife-edge RF gasket, electromechanical interlock, panic-release, ≥ 100 dB seal performance.

Honeycomb HVAC + lighting

Waveguide-honeycomb ventilation panels and EMI-filtered LED lighting maintain ≥ 100 dB shielding while delivering 18 °C–24 °C, 30–70 % RH.

RF Absorbers

Hybrid lining on every inner wall and ceiling.

A semi-anechoic configuration: floor remains a conductive ground plane (CISPR 25 §6.3); the five remaining surfaces are 100% covered with the hybrid stack below.

Ferrite tile absorbers

SINTERED · 100 × 100 × 6.7 mm

30 MHz – 1 GHz

NiZn sintered ferrite tiles bonded directly to the shielded wall. Provide reliable absorption below 200 MHz where pyramidal foam alone is too thin to be effective. Non-flammable, dimensionally stable, no off-gassing.

Pyramidal polyurethane absorbers

CARBON-LOADED PU · 600 mm tall

200 MHz – 40 GHz

Carbon-loaded polyurethane foam pyramids stacked over the ferrite layer. Dissipates higher-frequency energy through resistive loading and geometric impedance matching. Treated for fire retardance and dust suppression.
