Our company makes an instrument that has uses an RF Isolator Power Amp and 
induction coil to heat up a small metal sample for analysis purposes (Lab 
Equipment).

By definition within the IEC/EN 55011 standard, this equipment would be 
classified as Class A Group 2. (hang in there; it’ll get more interesting)

However, because we shield the amp and coil so well, we do not need to take 
advantage of the relaxed Emissions Limits for Group 2 or use the ISM 
Frequencies.  The Instrument passes the Class A Group 1 requirements, so that 
is how we record it and claim compliance to within our documentation.  (almost 
there)

Every now and then, when we ship one of these instruments to another country 
(most currently, Russia), they recognized the instrument as a Group 2 product 
by nature of what it is. They Demand that we provide them with information 
regarding the RF Frequencies and Radiated Power Levels the instruments 
generates.  This appears to be some kind of Registration so the authorities 
know where the Group 2 product is located and what frequency it may emit high 
levels at.

(Finally, my question)
Is there a common way of providing the required information for Class A Group 2 
products?  Can anyone supply me with an example report or form that we can 
complete and have translated into different languages? (in this case, it has to 
be in Russian). Is there a better way of handling these requests regarding 
Group 2 products?

Thanks to all.
