An Anechoic Chamber by Astra Shield is a high performance, controlled environment engineered to suppress both electromagnetic and acoustic energy. The term “anechoic” meaning “no echo.” These chambers are accurately designed by Astra Shield to absorb reflections of electromagnetic (EM) or acoustic waves, making them essential for precision testing of EMI devices, antennas, EMC compliance, radar systems, and acoustic components.
Every Astra Shield anechoic chamber starts with an EMI shielded enclosure. This acts as a Faraday cage to eliminate external EMI.
Astra Shield-designed enclosures feature:
Precision-engineered RF-shielded doors (manual or motorized)
Waveguide honeycomb for ventilation without interference
Filtered power and signal line entry points
Optical fiber feedthrough panels
Interior walls are lined with RF absorbers tailored to the test frequency range.
Materials used by Astra Shield include:
Carbon-loaded pyramidal or wedge-shaped polyurethane foam
Ferrite tiles for low-frequency applications (30 MHz to 1 GHz)
Custom absorber profiles and heights for optimal reflection control
Optical fiber feedthrough panels
Non reflective flooring with resistive surface or absorber tiles
Load-bearing flooring for walk-in and drive-in chambers
