Different environmental conditions such as extreme heat, extreme cold, moisture or other variables can influence a device failure in various ways. In today’s world, we all expect fault-free products and uninterrupted operations and services and in order to guarantee 100% performance, manufacturers from various industries must conduct environmental simulation tests of their products.
What is an EMC or Anechoic Chamber and How is Working?
An electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) or anechoic chamber is a highly specialized piece of test equipment used in the testing of electronic devices against regulatory standards concerning both radiated and conducted radio frequency (RF) emissions and immunity. EMC or anechoic chambers are designed to create an enclosure with an extremely high level of shielding attenuation against electromagnetic interference.
Batteries in Electric Vehicles, How Long Do They Last?
While it is true that electric cars lose battery capacity over time. The continuing advances in technology in precise degradation are difficult to define as a whole. The main factor is all down to the owner and how they treat the battery. The way energy is added, the way it is removed. And how many charging cycles, the battery experiences look after your battery and your battery will look after you.
Electric Vehicles Battery Testing
The global population of Electric Vehicle have been significantly increased within the latest few years. All major automakers recognize that the shift from fossil-fueled cars to EV is inevitable, and are investing accordingly. BATTERY, as one of the most CRITICAL part of electric vehicle is also having significant development period in order to fulfill the requirement from Electric Vehicle manufacturer.
Running Environmental Stress Test, Simulating Thermal Fatigue
Like development of other test equipment, the development of climatic test chamber is also following the requirement of the test standard, both common international test standard and test standard specially developed by specific industry (electronics, automotive, defence, packaging, etc). Find out the requirement and Remember to share this with any friends or colleagues that will find it valuable.
RTCA-DO-160E Section 4, Another Requirement for a Reliable Temperature Test Chamber
While IEC6008-2 provides guidance for environmental test of electronic and electro-mechanical equipment, RTCA-DO-160E Section 4 provides standard temperature test conditions and applicable test procedures for airborne equipment. This test standard is applicable for determining the performance characteristic of airborne equipment at actual environmental condition during actual airborne operation.
