Dear group,
We need to identify the appropriate EMC and safety standards for new LED
lighting products for use in the public domain.  I Have assumed they would
come under the luminaires category and EN 60598-1, and wondered if you anyone
knew which of the 60598-2-?? standards  related to LED lighting used for
illuminating public areas.
 
I look forward to your resonses.

Hi Jeff,
 
There is no requirement on Electrical Safety or EMC for Uruguay. Only certain
types of Radio Devices and all types of Telecom equipment are required for
Uruguay approvals. Manufacturers has two routes to get Uruguay radio/telecom
approvals, either through ANTEL or DNC.
 
If through ANTEL, the requirements are as below:
- Documents in Spanish
- Proper label as per ANTEL requirement
- SIEMIC Test Report (fully acceptable by ANTEL)
Lead time: 4 weeks
nbs! p;
If through DNC, the requirements are as below:
- User's Manual in Spanish
- SIEMIC Report (fully acceptable by DNC)
 Lead time: 2 weeks
 
Let me know if this helps.

RE: Vehicle EMC and Safety standards

2002-02-26 Thread Chris Chileshe

Hi Alex,

The EMC standards governing vehicle electrical sub-assemblies (ESAs)
are as follows:

1 - Radiated emissions - 95/54/EC (automotive directive) and CISPR 25

2 - Conducted emissions - CISPR 25 ( omitted by directive )

3 - ESD is governed by ISO 10605. The test levels are 15kV air discharge for 
ESAs
that can only be accessed from inside the vehicle and 25kV for ESAs that 
can be
accessed from outside the vehicle (e.g. through open window). Contact 
discharge is 8kV
for points accessible during normal operation.

4 - Fast transients and Bursts are replaced by ISO 7637/SAE J1113/11 in the 
form of test 
 pulse 3a and Test pulse 3b

5 - Surge immunity is replaced by the automotive load dump, ISO 7637 Test pulse 
5. This
 is the most destructive of the transients.

6 - Transient immunity is completed by the other test pulses in ISO 7637 (test 
pulse 1,2, 6)
 Test pulse 4 simulates the supply transient during cranking. You may want 
to look 
 closely at the behaviour of your machines during this phase as access to 
memory can
 often result in corruption of data. Additional requirements may exist like 
twice the supply
 voltage for a jump start on a 12V battery. 

Note that the transient test levels specified for 12V and 24V vehicles are 
different and 
governed by ISO 7637-1 and ISO 7637-2 respectively.

7 - Radiated immunity - ISO 11452. Minimum test level is 25V/m (SAR) to meet 
requirements 
 of the directive, but most vehicle manufacturers might ask for higher test 
levels like 
 50V/m and even 100 - 200V/m for safety critical ESAs. Frequency range is 
nominally 
 150kHz - 1GHz but it is common practice and vehicle manufacturers do tend 
to insist on
 tests starting at 10kHz. 
 The Bulk current Injection test is also useful verification that you have 
left no stone unturned. 
 It is described in detail in ISO 11452 Part 4

Depending on where your terminals will be fitted, the operating temperature 
range may 
change from the commercial, especially the lower limit which may have to shift 
from 
0 to -40?C but I imagine you have accounted for this already and besides, 
financial
transactions may be rather low on the list of priorities for a driver entering 
a cab at -40,
but I haven't been to Russia on a cold day so ignore me. Of course I jest.

For general safety, you will have to refer to the SAE standards. I cannot say 
for sure if
EN60950 is adequate.

Hi Group,

Our financial transaction terminals are mostly used in the commercial area
e.g. shops and offices, which use a separate AC/DC power supply block
connected to the mains There is a requirement for these same products to be
used in vehicles e.g. Taxis and Buses. These would use the power from the
batteries possibly from the cigarette lighter holder (12Volts). I have
obviously had to design in additional filter circuitry to account for this
type of DC Supply source.

My question is, will there be additional EMC and Safety requirements in
Europe or North America (other than those already approved for use in
commercial areas) for vehicle/mobile use?

Already Approved to:

*The only additional test I can think of is for the EN55024 to include the

Hi Alex,

I thought that I was done looking through EMC-PSTC stuff this morning.
But something popped into my head when I read your question.

We made a cigarette lighter adapter for one of our products.  At the
time I had to look up the Automotive EMC Directive 95/54/EC.  There
was a website at www.rfi.co.uk which had a technical document explaining
this directive.  

Hope this helps.

*The only additional test I can think of is for the EN55024 to include the
DC Power Port tests (excluded before due to the terminal being supplied from
an AC/DC power source).

As usual I look forward to your invaluable replies.

If you can not find a local source, you could try a UK company called ILI. They
cover most standards, have not found one yet that they do not have, and provide
a tailored update service for clients.

Contact is

or phone +44 1344 636300

G'day

I am seeking help in identifying EMC and Safety standards used in Libya and the 
Phillipines. Do they have specific requirements or do they accept IEC or UL / 
FCC requirements ?

Kevin,

A 1993 Guide to Applicants from MEEI mentions that some products
must be tested for EMC, but does not list standard as same comment
applies to such a broad range of products.  Further states that MEEI
will
accept EMC test report from a few listed test facilities.  However, this
is
a four year old document.

However, to my knowledge, we are getting MEEI certification on nearly
all our ITE printers with CB report and EU Declaration of Conformity.  I
would guess that MEEI is accepting DoU as proof of conformity to EN
versions of CISPR 22.

My information on Hungarian EMC is a little thin. Does anybody know the
state of things for ITE equipment? Are they following the EC on this?

Hungary is in the process of implementing the EMC Directive.  Currently 
there are mandatory certification requirements on electrical and 
electronic equipment before they are allowed onto the Hungarian market.

Standards follow IEC/CENELEC.

The responsible authorities are:

Ministry of Trade and Industry, Telephone +361 118 5044

Ministry for Telecommunication, Telephone +361 461 3390

Information on the EMC laws and standards in the EU, and some other 
countries around the world can be found in The EMC '97 Reference 
Handbook and Directory, just published by Nutwood UK.

Take a look at their web site at http://www.emc-journal.co.uk
