A focus on Aerospace and Defence

With rapidly deployable mobile HIRF test facilities and measurement teams, we support our Aerospace and Defence clients to test for a range of electromagnetic phenomena during the development and airworthiness certification stages on whole platforms, anywhere in the world. 

  • Civil & military High Intensity Radiated Field (HIRF) Testing, LLSC & LLSF
  • Environments from PED IPL and T-PED susceptibility testing
  • Radiation Hazard assessments, HERO, HERP and HERF
  • Management of Environmental and EMC test programmes and supporting clients in achieving compliance with standards, e.g.DEF STD (including 59-411, 00-35), MIL STD (including 461, 462, 464, 810), EUROCAE (ED-130, ED-14G/RTCA DO-160G), SAE ARP5583A / EUROCAED ED-107A, FAA, AC20-158A. 
What is electromagnetic compatibility?

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the ability of electronic and electrical equipment, systems and installations to operate satisfactorily in their electromagnetic environment without any degradation or loss of function in performance, which could compromise safety.

What are some examples of RINA’s HIRF work?

Examples of our HIRF work include:
- Boeing
- Embraer 
- Leonardo Helicopters
- Indonesian Aerospace
- Gulfstream
- Dassault Aviation
- 15+ Military vehicles / Aircraft

 

Why RINA?

RINA can provide you with bespoke EMC work packages that will ensure your project fulfils the contractual and technical EMC requirements and ensuring due diligence with respect to EMC is achieved.

Moreover, RINA HIRF mobile test facilities can be deployed worldwide, rapidly mobilising our measurement team & equipment to our client sites.
