Detectus AB
New EMC and Heat Scanner line for Interfax
Interfax Systems now distributes and offers an EMC / Heat scan service with the robotic scanning system from Detectus. The scanner uniquely provides movement in the XYZ axis with a range of 600 x 400 x 400 mm.

The platform can be fitted for either thermal scanning or Rf scanning for EMC applications. Now you can 'see' high frequency electromagnetic fields. Finding the exact location of a radiating source is a problem for designers today. Detectus has developed a measuring system with which the designer can measure intensity and the location of a radiation source at a component level. Results are shown as two or three dimensional coloured maps.

Ship us a sample of your board level products with full power - up instructions and connectivity hardware. Our technicians will provide a high resolution EMC or Heat emissions profile report to aid in your design process and identify emissive elements.

 
3D Imaging for
EMC or Thermal Scanning

The system consists of an x-y-z robot, a spectrum analyzer with close field probes (supplied by user), a GPIB card for communicating with the spectrum analyzer, and software for the user's personal computer.

  • Useful for the DESIGN phase of a product. Maximize efficiency of designer's time. Minimize costly interference problems between boards in a system.
  • The EMC scanner can detect potential emission problems before integration into a product and becoming more expensive to correct.
  • Useful as a Q.A. Tool to help maintain a high quality in the production line.

An application note on "Prevention of Board level Rf Emissions" is in the application note section of this Interfax website www.interfaxsystems.com/applications/emissions.htm

Email info@interfaxsystems.com and request Detectus brochures to be mailed to you or ask a technical sales rep to call and preview a list of prestigious companies worldwide already using the Detectus EMC or Heat scanner. Pricing for our scanning services are also available from our technical representatives. Please be ready to provide approximate board dimensions, a geometrical description for 3D assemblies and power - up requirements.

Sample pricing for scan service:

1. 3" x 4" loaded PCB, 1 mil resolution, EMC and Heat = $450. US
2. 12" x 12"   "        " , 1 mil resolution, EMC and Heat = $950. US

Above pricing assumes all power-up equipment (power supplies, extender ribbon cables, mother chassis, etc. supplied).
