Presentation
Outline
• Brief overview of Electromagnetic Interference
and Electromagnetic Compatibility
• EMC Directive
• Apparatus and Fixed Installations
• Examples of EMC Test Methods
• What information is needed for a quote
The Choices You Make
Now
Can Provide for a
Successful Evaluation
 Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Electrical / Electronic equipment
malfunctions due to Electromagnetic
Disturbances
 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
An electrical system or product's ability to
operate without causing EMI that would
interfere with other equipment (Emissions)
and without being affected by EMI from other
equipment or the environment (Immunity)
Methods of
Coupling
The coupling between systems is a physical phenomena
Limits and levels in standards are expressed in terms of these
Phenomena
There are 5 basic modes of coupling
• Electrostatic
• Capacitive
• Inductive
• Conductive
• Electric (E) and magnetic (H) radiation fields
Phenomena
Defined
“any state or process known
through the senses rather than by
intuition or reasoning”
BASIC CONCEPT
Electromagnetic Fields Are
Everywhere
They are NORMAL
There are two paths

Radiated
(Airborne)
&
Conducted on Wires

There are
Exemptions
Note – exemptions mean there is
redirection for EMC compatibility
 Equipment covered by Directive
1999/5/EC on Radio and
telecommunications terminal
equipment (R&TTE)
 Certain Aeronautical products as
referred to in EC regulation No1592/2002
 Radio equipment used by radio amateurs
 Benign equipment
2004/108/EC
Directive – What Changed?
• Clarification of scope and some definitions
• Definition of compliance methods – DoC
• Elimination of mandatory NB/CB examinations
• Requirement for unique product identification
• Clear treatment of fixed installations and their
compliance obligations
The Scope of the
New Directive
APPARATUS
Any
finished product
or
combination thereof
FIXED INSTALATIONS
A particular combination
of apparatus used
permanently at
pre-defined locations
Fixed Installation shall be installed
applying good EMC engineering practices
Give Consideration to - - RF Emissions and Immunity
Line Emissions and Immunity
and Transients
By using good - - Segregation
Shielding
Filtering
Grounding & Bonding
THIS INCLUDES
MOBILE
INSTALLATIONS
Mobile installations are defined
as a combination of apparati
intended to be moved and operated in
a range of locations are deemed
to be apparatus.
All provisions of the EMC Directive, as defined for
apparatus, apply to mobile installations.
FIXED INSTALLATIONS
The strategy is to manage and control EMC to
ensure the safe and reliable operation of the
Fixed Installation Project.
Functional Safety consideration of EMC issues
and the impact these may have on the safe operation
of the equipment and neighboring environment.
Functional Operation consideration
The operation of the products and co-located
equipment and systems may not be guaranteed by
solely complying with EMC regulations or test standards
MEET THE EMC ESSENTIAL
REQUIREMENTS
Equipment shall be designed and manufactured to
ensure that:
1. That the disturbance generated does not exceed
the level above in which radio and
telecommunications equipment or other equipment
cannot operate as intended……and
2. It has a level of immunity to the disturbances
to be expected in its intended use which allows
it to operate without unacceptable degradation
of its intended use
An EMC
Technical Assessment
Consists of - - -
•
•
•
•
•
•
Description of product Component selection
Description of environment Shielding, filtering, cables etc
Specific precautions
Performance criteria
EMC test data and reports
Design considerations and Technical Rationales
Develop an
EMC Plan for Success
• Describe the project including systems and equipment
• Define the technical description
• What are the project EMC requirements?
• What are the project roles and responsibilities
• Provide for EMC Testing
• EMC Design Studies/PreScan EMC Testing
• EMC Maintenance requirements
• Don’t forget about your key subcontractors
Perform a
Gap Analysis
Where you think you are….where you need to be
An EMC gap analysis design study will need to be
performed to gather the EMC compliance status of
equipment in terms of Declarations of Conformity,
EN standards and if possible test reports.
EMC testing of individual suppliers’ equipment may be
required where inadequate EMC performance is
identified through the EMC gap analysis.
This is your mind
about now……
Lets try to bring this all together to make sense

RADIATED
EMISSIONS
Intentional Radiators are subject to rules (FCC,
RTTE, etc) for preventing interference and maximizing
the available spectrum
All other electrical products are non-intentional
Radiators, such as electrical circuits, are not designed
to generate RF energy, but do. As a result, they could
interfere with other devices
Radiated
Emissions
Verifies that the product's
EM emissions do not
exceed a level that will
interfere with the
operation of other
electrical devices in the
operating environment
in which the equipment will
be installed or utilized

Have you Noticed
Commonality in
EMC Design Tips?
 Shielded cabling
 Grounding
 Filtering where necessary
 Good workmanship practices
 Using approved power supplies
You may find the need to
define additional requirements
that could include:
• Addressing special cases unique to the environment
• Addressing limitations with the standards
• Ensuring installed systems and not just the individual
equipment are EMC compliant
• EMC must also be maintained during installation
and maintenance
DOC
Annex IV
of the EMC
Directive
The EC declaration of conformity must contain:
– A reference to the applicable directive
– Identification to the apparatus
– Name and address of manufacturer and
authorized Community representative if
applicable
– Dated reference to the specifications to which
conformity is declared
– Date of the declaration
– Identity and signature of person empowered
to bind the company
What are the Basics
For an RFQ?
 Identify the countries you wish to place the product
 Draw a simple block diagram
