The ETS-Lindgren EMCO Antenna Catalog presents a comprehensive family of EMC test antennas covering emissions, immunity, site validation, and wireless test applications. The catalog organizes more than two dozen models by antenna type — BiConiLog, biconical, calculable biconical, log periodic, double-ridged waveguide horn, diagonal dual polarized horn, standard gain and octave horn, tuned dipole, fixed dipole sets, loop and magnetic field coil, rod, conical log spiral — along with shielding effectiveness test kits and a parallel element E-field generator. Together these antennas span an operating range from 20 Hz to 40 GHz.
The catalog identifies the EMC test types each model supports. Applications listed include U.S. regulatory emissions testing (FCC-15, FCC-18), European regulatory testing, VCCI, SAE J1113, MIL-STD-461E, MIL-STD-1541, MIL-STD-285, NACSIM, IEC 61000-4-3 immunity testing, IEEE STD 299 shielding effectiveness measurement, and wireless device testing. Each model entry indicates whether it is used for radiated emissions (RE), radiated immunity (RI), plane wave (PW), microwave (M), E-field (EF), H-field (HF), or wireless frequency testing.
ValueTronics maintains this manufacturer catalog as a procurement reference for ETS-Lindgren EMCO antenna products that pass through our facility. Our 20,000 square foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois receives, inspects, and processes EMC test antennas under our standard intake workflow before they are released for sale. Maintaining the published manufacturer catalog alongside our inventory lets engineering buyers cross-reference the model number, frequency range, and application matrix against the specific unit they are evaluating from our stock.
ETS-Lindgren operates as a subsidiary of ESCO Technologies. The EMCO brand of EMC test antennas covered by this catalog is part of the ETS-Lindgren product line. Older inventory may carry EMCO branding while current catalog references reflect the ETS-Lindgren corporate identity.
The ETS-Lindgren EMCO antenna catalog is a multi-model family organized by antenna type and intended test application. The catalog's Quick Find table groups models by frequency range and indicates which EMC test standards each model addresses — U.S. regulatory, European regulatory, VCCI, SAE, MIL-STD-461E, MIL-STD-285, NACSIM, and wireless. Within each antenna type (BiConiLog, biconical, log periodic, horn, dipole, loop, rod, conical log spiral), the catalog presents two to five sibling models that differ by frequency range, power handling, polarization characteristics, or form factor.
Because the catalog spans antenna families that operate over fundamentally different frequency bands and serve different test purposes, model selection is application-driven rather than tier-driven. The catalog's Antenna Selection by Test Type and Antenna Selection by Frequency sections (referenced in the table of contents) guide selection by matching the regulatory test, the frequency range, and the required test type (emissions, immunity, or site validation) to the available models in each antenna family.
Each model linked from this catalog reference is its own dedicated product page on ValueTronics with pre-owned-matched pricing. Confirm the specific model, frequency range, and any required accessories — tripod, support rod, calibration documentation — against your test application before placing an order.
The catalog distinguishes models within each antenna type primarily by frequency range and intended test type. In the biconical family, for example, the Model 3104C covers 20 MHz to 200 MHz and is positioned for radiated emissions, the Model 3109 covers 20 MHz to 300 MHz for radiated immunity with higher power handling, and the Model 3110B covers 30 MHz to 300 MHz for emissions. In the log periodic family, the Model 3144 spans 80 MHz to 2 GHz, the Model 3147 spans 200 MHz to 5 GHz, and the Model 3148 spans 200 MHz to 2 GHz with a design oriented to CISPR 16-1 cross-polarization measurement requirements.
The double-ridged waveguide horn family is similarly tiered by frequency band: Model 3106 covers 200 MHz to 2 GHz, Model 3115 covers 1 GHz to 18 GHz, and Model 3116 covers 18 GHz to 40 GHz. The conical log spiral family includes Model 3101 (200 MHz to 1 GHz), Model 3102 (1 GHz to 10 GHz), and Model 3103 (100 MHz to 1 GHz). The Quick Find table at the front of the catalog and the spectral chart in the reference section show the full frequency coverage and test-type applicability for each model so the appropriate antenna can be selected for the specific test.
