The implementation of digital I&C equipment and wireless technologies in nuclear facilities presents a variety of technical and regulatory challenges such as interference and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). To meet these challenges, AMS provides laboratory and field nuclear EMC measurements to verify electromagnetic compatibility and to resolve interference issues.
A facility installing new digital I&C or wireless equipment for voice and data communication must ensure that electromagnetic signals emitted by the new equipment will not interfere with the operation of the existing equipment. Conversely, facilities must ensure that new digital and wireless equipment to be installed can co-exist with existing equipment and withstand the prevailing electromagnetic environment.
AMS has an exclusive array of equipment and technologies to meet the EMC qualification needs of the nuclear industry and to support digital I&C and wireless technology implementation. AMS’ state-of-the-art EMC laboratory in Knoxville, Tennessee is an A2LA Accredited Electrical Testing facility (A2LA Cert. No. 3483.01) that is staffed by iNARTE–certified EMC Engineers and Specialists.
