EMI (electromagnetic interference) can be dangerous for automotive vehicles as it can damage electrical systems and cause a vehicle to run out of control. Test solutions have been put in place to test possible interferences and create safer vehicles.
Avalon Test Equipment carries a wide variety of automotive test solutions from leading manufacturers such as EM Test, R&S, and Teseq. Search by your test solution requirement for equipment available to rent or purchase and Test With Confidence®.
Teseq’s artificial network HV-AN 150 is the first universal solution which covers several applications and standards in the Automotive, Airborne and MIL range.
Impedance stabilization networks (ISN, or with CISPR 16-1-2 called AAN: asymmetric artificial network) are defined for measuring of conducted common mode disturbances at information technology equipment (ITE) as required in CISPR 22 and CISPR 32. The ISN is placed between the equipment under test (EUT) and auxiliary equipment (AE) or load which are necessary for the operation of the EUT.
The ITS 6006 consist of an integrated RF signal generator, RF switch and EUT monitoring interfaces. The unit is designed for various radiated EMC applications in the 80 MHz to 6 GHz frequency range. In addition to the generator, the system includes the AM and PM modulators necessary for EMC testing. The second generation, called ITS 6006B, includes 3 freely configurable pulse modulators (1 µs to 200 s) for radar pulse profiles as required e.g. by Ford FMC1278 or VW TL81000. The RF signal can be switched to one of four outputs, where up to four power amplifiers can be connected directly. Two RF switches are supplied for combining four amplifier into two antenna paths.
The absorbing clamp CLA-150 was designed for EMC emissions measurement of from electrical instruments via their connecting leads. It has a 32-mm cable aperture.
The Fischer Custom Communications FCC F-120-1 Bulk Current Injection Probe has been designed to extend the use of conducted immunity testing over the bandwidth of 10 kHz – 175 MHz
Wide frequency range 10 kHz - 400 MHz High power handling (up to 1 kW) Ideal for automotive BCI testing e.g. ISO 11452-4, RTCA/DO-160 section 20, MIL-STD-461 and manufacture‘s requirements Meets IEC/EN 61000-4-6 Replacement for CIP 36A & 37A as specified in Defence Standard 59-41
Part of the test equipment required by most of the Bulk Current Injection test procedure specifications. Allows the user the quickly and easily calibrate the injection probe prior to performing compliance testing.
Designed for the IEC 61000-4-6 Ed 4.0, section 6.2.3.1 – 6.2.3.2 that states “…the increase of the transmission loss of the test jig, produced by the insertion of the Current Clamp, shall not exceed 1.6 dB”. This 1.6 dB requirement is verified by subtracting the insertion loss of the calibration fixture without the Clamp in place from the fixture insertion loss with the Clamp in place.
1MHz - 400MHz Frequency Used for BCI testing in accordance With automotive specifications like SAE J15447 CW input power rating is 100 watts for 30 minutes
