ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR: CLICK HERE
At first glance, shielded room tests seem to be fairly simple. This is not so. Consider the following:
The testing environment is most often that of a construction site;
A shielded room rarely passes the first time, and the tester is
often called
upon to help locate and fix "leaks."
The testing presents certain hazards to the testers and to their
instruments. The
intense electromagnetic fields that are generated can lead to
blindness or stop a
pacemaker. This course fills a long-standing and unfilled need in
the
shielding
industry: formal training for the engineers and technicians that
test shielded rooms.
OBJECTIVE
This course covers the technical and safety procedures involved in
testing
shielded
rooms. It reviews the most widely used testing standards, along with the
advantages and
drawbacks of each. Using the shielded room of a working Electromagnetic
Compatibility
testing laboratory, it presents practical techniques for locating and
eliminating
electromagnetic leaks. It provides practical advice on the selection of
test equipment,
and on its care and protection on a construction site. Participants will
gain the ability to test shielded rooms, locate leaks and fix them. They
will gain the knowledge necessary to make rational and intelligent
decisions regarding the
selection and care of test equipment to be used in testing
electromagnetically shielded
rooms.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course is technical in nature, but no extensive technical training
or
experience is
required. Anyone in government or industry whose responsibilities involve
the design,
selection, acquisition, construction, testing, or management of shielded
rooms can
benefit from this practical, hands-on course.
