Re: CONDUCTED NOISE 2kHz-20 kHz STANDARDS

Hi   I believe that there are ETSI standards with limits certainly in the acoustic band.  Also GR1089 has low frequency limits.Your regular mains filter has some effect at frequencies below 150 kHz, perhaps you could get enough effect to give you enough of reduction.   John Cronin >From: Christi

Re: Military Equimpment and the EU

Munitions of war are excluded from at least the EMC Directive.  This is under the conditions of the treaty of Rome which established the European Union or was it EEC? In any event the EMC Directive does not apply to munitions of war, unless it has a dual military/non military application.  I woul

The RTTE Directive would apply if the equipment intentionally transmits or receives using the rf spectrum or if the equipment connects to the telephone network. The Machinery Directive would apply if moving parts present higher risks than electrical hazards (see the directive for the details). Ri

Military Equimpment and the EU

Good morning! I am faced with coming up with a regulatory strategy for equipment that will be sold to a foreign military (member of the EU). The equipment is entirely military and has military unique attributes. The products range from battery operated hand held devices to laptops that can use

RE: Standard for EM Immunity for cardiac pacemakers?

Peter, both CENELEC and IEC are developing pacemaker EMC standards. The only published document is EN 50061/A1 which has not been published in the OJ. That standard will be replaced by EN45502-X. EN45502-1 is published but does not contain limits. Richard Woods -- From:

Peter, Be careful, some agencies have taken the 1.0 mm thickness requirement for transformers (57.9.4.e, first dash) and applied it to potted components the need reinforced insulation. IEC 60950, I believe only requires 0.4 mm for reinforced. Ned Devine Program Manager III Entela, Inc. 3033 Ma

CONDUCTED NOISE 2kHz-20 kHz STANDARDS

Dear Group: We have a problem with a machine tool (a CNC milling machine) with Power Supply DRIVER SIMODRIVE 611 of SIEMENS (37 KW), the machine includes an EMC filter. The problem is the following, whenever the machine is running we measured with a Spectrum analyser the conducted noise and rea

Re: standard for Epilation device

Marque It is safest to treat this as a medical device and use the EN 60601 range of standards. Outside of medical devices the nearest standard is EN 60335-2-23 - Appliances for skin or hair care but this does not specifically deal with this type of device and so may not cover all risks associate

RE: standard for Epilation device?

Marque, Usually products intended for beauty salons are covered under the IEC 335 series of standards. But I strongly believe that because the product can only be used by professionally trained personnel and because needle used might puncture the skin, you may wish to cover under the Medical Devi

FW: standard for Epilation device?

Marque, It would appear that your epilation device is not a medical device according to the scope of the Medical Devices Directive (unless having unwanted hair can be considered a handicap!!). I would go for EN 60335-1 and check out the scopes of EN 60335-2-23 and EN 60335-2-8 to see if they are

RE: Isolation Transformer improvements article

This kind of transformer would be of little use in countries with 'multiply earthed neutral' mains distribution (where there is very little common mode noise). Australia is such a country: is there a list somewhere that identifies the scheme in each country? Regards Jon Keeble
