DETAILS
Designed in consultation with the Institute of Sound and Vibration University of Derby England, this Isolation Chamber has an inner dimension of 390 x 410 x 350mm (WxDxH) and provides a controlled environment for sound, light, and electromagnetic interference.
4120 SERIES ISOLATION CHAMBER
Available in 7 standard sizes, our chambers are coated to resist corrosion and are fitted with a panel mounted ventilation fan and air inlet with cable entry points. Custom sizes are also available with a design charge.
Ergonomically designed for ease of animal handling and welfare with a ventilation fan and optional rolling shelf, these chambers can be configured with a house light, speaker, and camera observation/recording system that uses visual or IR illumination.
Audible transmission measurements were performed on sound pressure z-scale. Attenuation level ensures that sound between chambers is attenuated to around 35 dB which approximates to the background noise in a quiet room. Additional baffles can add 5-10 dB of further attenuation and also eliminate light ingress at the ventilation apertures. All sound attenuation levels are frequency dependent.
This chamber is equipped with a Faraday Cage. A Faraday Cage is a metallized lining with an EMC-gasketed door that attenuates external sources of electromagnetic interference to provide a clean electromagnetic environment for physiological recordings. An effective Faraday cage must be grounded as a component in the design of a shielded system. Performance will be dependent upon the proximity and frequency of the radiated and transmitted electromagnetic radiation in question.
