Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Radiation Calibration
Calibration services offered to the public include calibration of radiofrequency hazard meters, gauss meters, and personal RF hazard meters.
The Radiofrequency (RF) Electromagnetic Radiation Calibration Service maintains diverse laboratory facilities for measurements relating to hazard analysis and calibration of radiofrequency radiation measuring instruments. Specific calibration services offered to the public include calibration of radiofrequency hazard meters, gauss meters, and personal RF hazard meters. Calibrations may include any of the following test methods: TEM cell, anechoic chamber, wave-guide calibration apparatus or for ELF frequencies a Helmholtz coil.
ARPANSA is a NATA accredited laboratory (ISO/IEC 17025(1999)) for calibration of
- E-field meters, including hazard meters and warning indicators, at 1mW/cm2 and frequencies up to 8 GHz or levels up to 10mW/cm2 and frequencies up to 2.45 GHz; and
- Equivalent free space H-field with least uncertainties of measurement of - 1 dB from 100 kHz to 200 MHz, 0.6 dB at 750 and 900 MHz, 1 dB at 1.8 GHz, 0.54 dB at 2.45, 4, 6 and 8 GHz
To seek additional information about this service, or to receive a quotation and booking for a calibration, please complete and return the Client Request Form (PDF 80kb | DOC 98kb) or email your query. Please do not dispatch equipment for calibration until a quotation has been received and a Client Agreement Form (PDF 125kb) has been signed and returned to ARPANSA.
