This flexibility has made it possible for IAR to test satellites, satellite payload equipment, airframes, and aircraft components in collaboration with the aerospace industry. A high bay preparation area is available for handling large satellites and other test articles. The bay provides a unique enclosed environment for large aerospace components, including complete aircraft fuselages. IAR has a clean room capability of class 100,000, with required humidity and temperature control. IAR expertise in the field has contributed to the design, construction and operation of high intensity noise reverberant test facilities in other countries.
All testing can include vibration monitoring, recording and analysis.
This computer based control system is used to enhance the performance of the reverberant chamber during test of spacecraft hardware. Improved spectrum control, realtime display of test parameters and ease of use are key advantages of using an automatic control system. Ease of spectrum generation, tighter acoustic level tolerance and the ability to accommodate acoustic absorption of the test article are major advantages of its use. Overall, linear, weighted and intensity measurements can be made on site in IAR's operation bay or at remote locations as required. Additionally, acoustic measurements can be carried out in conjunction with vibration monitoring and data acquisition .
