EMC / EMI Testing

Element U.S. Space & Defense is known worldwide as the industry leading provider of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) engineering and compliance services. Our Program Managers and Subject Matter Experts work closely with you, conducting extensive technical reviews to determine your needs and provide a customized service. Whatever you require to speed your product to market — engineering, design analysis, testing, technical training — Element U.S. Space & Defense will customize solutions to meet all of your needs. We offer a wide range of EMC and EMI services to seamlessly take your design from concept to final product.

The Element U.S. Space & Defense network of EMI testing laboratories is the largest in North America. We offer EMC testing services to various FCC standards and the CE certification requirements of the EU.  We also provide industry-specific EMC testing services. At Element U.S. Space & Defense, we provide specific EMC testing to the telecommunications industry through our NEBS program, and offer extensive EMC and EMI testing for defense systems as well as space and aircraft EMC testing.

We operate some of the most modern and highly-equipped EMC test labs in the business, staffed by some of the most experienced engineers and technicians in the field of EMC testing and EMC compliance. We are capable of testing to the most extreme limits and the most challenging standards. In short, there is little in the way of EMC testing that we cannot handle.

EMI / EMC / HIRF/ Indirect Lightning Analysis

Dealing with electromagnetic interference (EMI) appropriately can be one of the most problematic design challenges to modern product development. When proper electromagnetic compatibility design practices have not been implemented in the design process, significant impact will be seen both in the functional reliability and the product’s inability to properly co-exist in its intended usage environment. We help our customers proactively address these issues by providing them with some of the most experienced subject matter experts in the field of EMC, including HIRF and indirect lightning.  These subject matter experts cover every aspect of the equation, such as regulatory requirements, product design, EMI-control materials and pre-compliance testing to ensure that the final development process takes all of these critical aspects into consideration.
