EMC Chamber

DSD's state-of-the-art EMC chamber provides enhanced development and verification testing of power electronics and electrified propulsion systems.

The EMC chamber is CISPR 25 compliant, semi-anechoic, and is specifically designed for high voltage component testing. Based in Warwickshire (UK), it measures both radiated and conducted emissions and meets automotive and aerospace standards.
