Wedge Absorber for Anechoic Chambers

Wedge absorbers give around 20% more anechoic performance than full peak absorbers at frequencies below 1 GHz, due to their greater mass. The wedge system is used where a low-frequency bias is required.

 

Using the 20% mass the Wedge absorber system can save money by using smaller pyramids and the microwave performance is excellent with a return loss of -40dB at 8 x wavelength.

 

Global EMC’s wedge pyramid absorber gives excellent performance in compact chambers. The absorber fully complies with NRL 8093 parts I, II and III Fire safety standard.

 

Compatible chambers/applications: MIL-STD461G, CISPR12/25, ETSI, Radio/Low Microwave Work.
