SGS and Jaguar Land Rover Announces New Contract to Deliver EMC Testing in Chakan, Pune
SGS, a global leader in testing, inspection, and certification services, has announced its collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover (JLR). This partnership comes as a result of JLR's recognition of SGS's new Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) automotive testing facility in Chakan, Pune.
The state-of-the-art laboratory has become JLR’s first third-party independent laboratory in India. It gives SGS the green light to perform testing in accordance with JLR-EMC-CS: EMC Specification which oversees compatibility requirements for a wide spectrum of electrical and electronic components and subsystems integral to the JLR experience.
EMC is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function correctly in their electromagnetic environment. It works by limiting the unintentional generation, propagation and reception of electromagnetic energy to reduce the risk of electromagnetic interference.
Dipjyoti Banerjee – Executive Director, SGS in India said: “SGS is extremely proud to have received this prestigious recognition from JLR. Our specialist testing teams at Pune were able to demonstrate 100% feasibility against JLR’s stringent specifications. Our commitment is to consistently adhere to OEM criteria and offer top-tier testing support across JLR’s regional and global supply chains.”
SGS’s state-of-the-art testing facility, which opened in November 2022, has received accreditation from the National Accreditation Board for Testing & Calibration Laboratories (NABL) in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2017. It offers a complete range of EMI/EMC tests for automotive sub-assemblies under a single roof and is equipped with shielded rooms, anechoic chambers, strip line/TEM cells, pulse generators with highly digitized and automated device under test monitoring using various transceivers, cameras and software.
The Pune facility achieved 100% feasibility against JLR-EMC-CS EMC specification which includes:
- Radiated RF Emissions: RE 310
- Conducted RF Emissions: CE 420
- Conducted Transient Emissions: CE 410
- RF Immunity: RI 112
- RF Immunity: RI 114
- RF Immunity: RI 115
- Magnetic Field Emissions: RE 320
- Magnetic Field Immunity: RI 140
- Coupled Immunity: RI 130
- Coupled Immunity: RI 150
- Immunity from Transient Disturbances: CI 220
- Immunity from Power Cycling: CI 230
- Immunity to Ground Voltage Offset: CI 250
- Immunity to Ground Voltage Offset: CI 250
- Immunity to Low Voltage Transients: CI 265
- Immunity to Voltage Overstress: CI 270
- Electrostatic Discharge: CI 280
The wider scope of EMI/EMC tests undertaken at the Chakan, Pune test facility enables high-precision EMC measurements on traditional automotive electronics, high-voltage e-mobility/electric vehicle (EV) components/systems, two/three-wheeler vehicle testing and consumer electronics.
