Electro Rent Corporation (Nasdaq: ELRC) and ART-Fi today announced that Electro Rent will become the sole provider of ART-Fi’s ART-MAN SAR measurement system and related services in the United States and Canada.

“ART-Fi is an exciting new entrant in the test and measurement industry, and we are pleased to be working with them as the sole provider of their equipment, which meets the growing needs of developers and manufacturers of wireless devices,” said Eric Williams, Vice President of Sales for Electro Rent. “As we work to consistently exceed our customers’ needs, the ART-MAN product will enhance our product breadth and depth in the expanding mobile industry.”

“We are creating a new platform that provides significant flexibility for Electro Rent and test and measurement equipment suppliers who can benefit from the robust sales and support infrastructure we already have in place,” said Dan Greenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Electro Rent.

The ART-MAN, which reduces SAR testing time (relating to the amount of electromagnetic energy absorbed by the head or body when using a wireless device) from weeks to days, will be used by North American test labs, and wireless equipment and design manufacturers.

Electro Rent specializes in helping customers obtain the right equipment, at the right time, and at the right price. The company offers flexible equipment acquisition options including new and used equipment sales, rentals, and leasing alternatives.

“Electro Rent has built a fantastic reputation for providing customers with high-quality equipment and best-in-class customer service, and we are very pleased to be working with them to bring our new technology to the North American market,” said Benoit Derat, Chief Executive Officer of ART-Fi. “Electro Rent’s powerful sales presence and know-how will be of great value in getting our leading second generation SAR measurement system into the hands of those who need it most.”

“Electro Rent’s unique ability to provide technical assistance and custom acquisition alternatives to our SAR customers, while providing a full range of other related wireless test equipment to them, is a very powerful value proposition,” Williams said. “We will be working closely with ART-Fi to introduce the significant cost and time saving benefits of the ART-MAN product to a wide range of wireless companies and test labs throughout North America.”
