Bemco to Test Effect of Infrared Radiation
TIMES STAFF WRITER
Bemco Inc., a Simi Valley manufacturer of environmental test chambers, has received a $1.1-million contract from the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington to test the effect of infrared radiation on vehicle surfaces.
The test chamber--9 1/2 feet tall and 14 feet in diameter--will simulate a range of radiation from sea level to high altitude on the surface parts of aircraft and ships.
Bemco employs 50 workers at its Union Place corporate headquarters and reported sales of $5 million in 1994.
