European and worldwide marketing of your equipment

The whole concept of telecoms products has been changing over the past few years. Products are becoming interconnected and the rapid development of the Internet of Things heralds a major trend: connected devices accompanied by the increased use of wireless communications.

The procedures to be followed for the approval of equipment possessing communication functions – especially RF – are particularly precise.

• Conducted immunity (Inducted field strength 10Veff from 150kHz to 230MHz)
• Magnetic immunity (Magnetic field immersion method 30A/m_50/60Hz)

 

Electrical testing
A complete range of facilities for testing according to EN 61000-4-(2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, ...) and EN 61000-3-(2 et 3) - EN 61100-3-(11 et 12)

• Electrostatic discharge up to 30kV - Electrical Fast Transient / Burst Immunity test: CDN 3 phases 30A, amplitude burst 4.4kV, CDN 3 phases 100A, amplitude burst 4.4kV - Surge immunity test: CDN 3 phases 25A amplitude 6.6 KV, CDN 3 phases 150A amplitude 6.6 KV, Voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations
• Flickers and harmonics, Monophase and 3 phases 16 A, Monophase and 3 phases 32A)

Electrical safety

• Equipments
• Types of tests

• Air-conditioned rooms
• Controlled sources of electrical power (stabilised 50/60 Hz power supplies, generators / converters)
• Acquisition units for temperature rise measurements (thermocouples)
• Appliances for electrical measurements (oscilloscope, probes, multimeters, leakage currents, etc.) 
• Appliances for power measurements

Radio (IoT, wireless, etc.)

• Open area test sites for mesures at 10m
• Full Anechoic Rooms for measurement at 3m test distance

A Faraday room with ferrite tiles and pyramidal absorbers builded to be a full anechoic room can comply the site attenuation of an open area test site.
The emission measurements are equivalent and have the advantage to be also insulated from exterior sources of electromagnetic noise.
We obtain faster measurments in FAR

• Large Semi-Anechoic Chambre for measurements at 3 or 10m test distance
• Emission measurement equipment up to 40GHz: 
  • analysers,
  • antennae,
  • pramplifiers,
  • cables,
  • etc.
• Radiocommunication bench
• Analog and digital modulation analysers (GSM)
• Protocole analysers
• Climatic chambers

Compliance with the tests conditions the marketing process

To be approved in Europe and in the rest of the world, equipment possessing telecoms functions must conform to tests covering multiple fields: electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), radio, EMF (electromagnetic waves & health) and safety.
As the leader in environmental testing, the Emitech Group can offer you its expertise in all of these fields.
From the start of our discussions, we can identify the tests to which you will be subjected and their severity, according to the countries targeted by your market launches.

We  support your teams in their technological choices, identify the documentation required and assess your prototypes.
By anticipating the requirements related to the approval of your products, we give you the keys to a successful commercial launch in compliance with your timetable.

Protect your brand image

Differentiating services are also offered in mechanical and climatic environments and in reliability, with the objective of bringing to market more robust and tested products to operate longer or simply to be transported to the other end of the world without deterioration (packaging).
