ACTUAL CASES FROM EMF & INDOOR AIR QUALITY INSPECTIONS
Examples of various environmental scenarios in which ScanTech found a solution to an issue:
Houston Hospital: Mysterious Ultrasound Interference
Houston Children’s Hospital: Electrical Shocks Discharged to Patients
Oil Rigs off West Africa
Heavy Machinery Ventilation Issue
Cleanroom Interference from New Instrument
Nanotechnology: SEM 60 Hz Noise Issue
Diabetic Infusion Pump Failure
Racetrack Charger Failure
Roanoke, TX – ScanTech was contacted by a Fortune 500 company to evaluate the safety and equipment interference levels of a switch room. While EMF was generally within all but the strictest suggested standards, it was found that RF levels would spike beyond OSHA recommended guidelines. Redesign and re-deployment of the network infrastructure is going forward.
Moon Kim “Nano & Beyond” in NSERL: Very interesting experience and got my hands dirty in the cleanroom and on a lot of nano-characterization / fabrication instruments
A North Dallas suburban home had elevated EMF (25 mG +) throughout several areas of the home and in the front yard? CAUSE: An improperly wired branch circuit that had been grounded to the sprinkler system.
In Carrollton, an expensive two story was built within 30 yards of some 500 kV lines. The resulting field throughout the home was 35 – 50 mG. Mitigation considered impractical.
Fort Worth, TX. – An improperly wired 3-way switch caused elevated EMF on a wall in a children’s playroom. Recommendation was to repair the wiring utilizing a knowledgeable electrician.
Allen, TX. – A biologist was concerned about cell towers in a neighborhood that her family was considering moving into. Findings: The cell tower was too remote to have any measurable effect on RF / microwave levels over ambient background.
Dallas, TX – A series of homes constructed by a conscientious builder were next to a 230 kV power line. Amazingly, the EMF at the property lines generally did not exceed 2.0 mG.
