EMC testing must take place in an authorized setting: ideally, a laboratory compliant with ISO/IEC 17025:2015 standards or recognized by a relevant national regulator, e.g., Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories
(NTRLs) designated by the U.S. Occupational Standards and Health Administration
(OSHA).9 If a lab setting isn’t possible, authorized testing personnel can conduct tests in situ — with the machine installed as desired by its end user — or at the device manufacturer’s facility before the product goes to market.
The best strategy for ensuring a commitment to maintaining EMC in an industrial environment is to let expert testing professionals from TÜV SÜD conduct the full spectrum of essential EMC tests. In addition to the procedures mentioned above, we can also test for antenna immunity, induced voltage immunity, power supply conditioning and much more.
