Applied Technical Services conducts electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing to monitor a subject’s ability to operate in its normal environment without causing electromagnetic interference to other vehicles, components, and equipment in the area. EMC testing determines if the electromagnetic emissions of an electronic device comply with industry standards. Applied Technical Services offers a frequently expanding list of comprehensive EMC testing procedures for several industries, including military and avionics. We offer a wide range of tests that comply with MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-704, and RTCA-DO-160 standards.
