Com-Power AL-130R Active Loop Antenna for EMC Test

I Introducing Com-Power AL-130R:

Model AL-130R complies with CISPR 16-1-4. It is ideal for emissions measurements required by various EMC standards such as FCC 18, CISPR 11, CISPR 13, CISPR 14, CISPR 32 and many others. The integrated low-noise preamplifier increases overall measurement sensitivity as well as overall signal-to-noise ratio. According to ANSI C63.4-2014, active loop antennas may be used for compliance testing in unshielded environments ONLY if the saturation indicator is continuously monitored during testing. Com-Power’s Remote Antenna Interface (RAI-100) is useful for this application. This is a compact controller that can be used to turn on/off the RF measurement circuit and monitor saturation and low battery levels remotely via a fiber optic cable up to 30 m in length.
