Room 14ML – Mode Tuned Chamber
Primary Use: Mil-Standard and Commercial Aviation Testing; DO 160
Contact UsAbout Room 14ML
Room 14ML is a reverberation chamber used for Mode Tuning or Mode Stirring RF immunity testing. It is an approved test chamber for the Ford FMC 1278 RI114 Mode Tuned test. This chamber is also used for the military and commercial aviation industries and provides the ability to achieve resonant RF levels for High Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF) testing. The large size of this chamber provides for a 16′ x 4′ ground plane that enables testing of large MIL and Avionics integrated systems.
This room is configured with a paired reverberation chamber, Room 14MS, that can achieve HIRF test levels in excess of 4000 V/m. The mating wall between rooms 14ML and 14MS is configured for EIA-364-66A shielding effectiveness measurements for cables and MIL/Aero connectors.
