DO-160 HIRF Testing
R&B Laboratory can deliver High Intensity Radiated Field (HIRF) testing in excess of 200 V/m throughout the range of 10 kHz to 40 GHz. Our reverberation chamber is capable of both the mode-tuned and mode-stirred DO-160 procedures with test levels up to 3000 V/m. All HIRF test are performed under full computer control, with flexibility to provide virtually any frequency step size, pulse duty cycle or modulation type.
Lightning Transient Testing
Capabilities include Level 4 for all of the RTCA/DO-160, Section 22 test waveforms and methods.
- Pin-injection testing
- cable bundle testing
- Single-Stroke, Mulitple Burst, Multiple Stroke at Level 1 to 4 (and higher)
Power Quality
Alion power quality capabilities include single-phase and three-phase AC power and DC power quality testing with transients having fast slew rates.
Our equipment also provides the capability for power quality testing in accordance with commercial and military standards, such as:
- RTCA/DO-160 G, F
- Boeing 787B3-0147
- Airbus ABD0100.1.8
- Airbus AMD 24
- MIL-STD-704
- MIL-STD-1275
- DOD-STD-1399
