Compliance Consulting

We solve critical technical, reliability and compliance problems for you.

Compliance Solutions

HDA solves compliance and reliability problems for medical and aerospace companies. These include radiated and conducted emissions, ESD, patient and electrical safety. We also consult on power quality, THD and thermal issues, and locate and correct compliance and reliability issues in new and existing products.
Over the years we have developed solutions for intermittent equipment failures for medical and aerospace clients, including smoke in cockpit events and random equipment failures, and have identified counterfeit components and ensured that emergency oxygen systems on commercial aircraft work reliably.
Compliance problems can be difficult to locate, and even harder to fix. Finding and solving these problems is one of our key strengths. With decades of compliance and reliability experience, we will track down your product’s issues and identify workable solutions.

Thermal chamber with power analysis

Reliability Analysis

Performing four corner analysis on Aircraft Emergency Oxygen Control Boards while cycling temperature over -20° to 85°C. Our 8 cubic foot thermal chamber uses liquid nitrogen (LN2) cooling for rapid negative excursions to support military temperature range testing.

FLIR image, patient applied part

FLIR Thermal Analysis

FLIR imagery of a medical device delivering pulsed RF therapeutic energy. We routinely use FLIR to locate hot spots and characterize heat sources, as well as to evaluate how effectively a system is being cooled.

EMI testing in screen room

EMI Mitigation

Probing a PCB to locate a source of EMI in our screen room. We have a variety of specialized probes and antennae, as well as a selection of broadband current transformers, to support our EMI mitigation efforts.

AC Power Analysis

Power Analysis

Our variable frequency AC power analysis system supports testing for power factor, total harmonic distortion, harmonics and sub-harmonics, dropout and other power quality and immunity related tests.
