Specialty Absorbers
For special applications in Anechoic Chambers Emerson & Cuming MP offers a range of Specialty Free Space absorbers.
 
 
Walkable Absorbers : this material has its pyramidal face filled with rigid foam to get a flat durable surface which can be walked upon, but which remains transparent to incident energy.

Wedge Absorbers : this a wedge shaped companion to the ECCOSORB VHP. It is designed to reduce back scatter and functions very well in grazing incidence angles, such as in a long tapered chamber, by creating lossy channels.

High Power Absorber : for applications in which the end user is using High Power RF, Emerson & Cuming MP has developed a range of pyramidal absorbers which can withstand the illumination with a High Power source.
 

Two types are available :

 
 

The ECCOSORB HFX-18-HC absorbers are hollow, pyramidal-shaped, high-power absorbers. These absorbers are made from carbon-coated honeycomb grids and have, accordingly, a low weight. The total height is approx. 45 cm and the base dimensions of these absorbers are ‘standard’ 61 cm x 61 cm

 

The "Power Handling Capability" of the ECCOSORB HFX-18-HC high-power absorbers is specified to be 1.5 W/cm² / 15 kW/m² (which is approximately 10 times higher compared to our standard pyramidal foam absorbers ECCOSORB VHP-18-NRL). This is the guaranteed value without forced air cooling / forced air circulation. However, in case some forced cooling is applied, the power-handling capability of our high-power absorbers can be improved till 3.0 W/cm² / 30 kW/m².

 
 

The ECCOSORB SPY is made of durable open cell foam. The open cell structure allows air circulation which enhances the Power Handling of the absorber. The "Power Handling Capability" of the ECCOSORB SPY high-power absorbers is specified to be 0.3 W/cm² / 3 kW/m² (which is approximately 2 times higher compared to our standard pyramidal foam absorbers ECCOSORB VHP)
