[PSES] Spare parts and EMC directive

I'm looking for some guidance regarding spare parts and CE marking / EMC directive. Can't find any spare part discussion in latest EMC guideline (2010), but I find some text in the old 89/336/EC guideline. Anyone who have seen such an updated guideline for how to handle spare parts?

[PSES] Ethernet Loading

We have a rather convoluted way to load the ethernet lines to meet EN55022. Sec 9.6.3. I've looked on Google and found a few ping and data copy programmes, but I can't find a single program to do it all. I am hoping someone has found a simple program to make loading the port easy and getting

Re: [PSES] Ethernet Loading

Hi Julian, EN55032 notes in table B.3 that the 10% utilisation is specifically for 10Base-T Ethernet traffic which is electrically mostly inactive when not transmitting data. 100Base-T and 1000Base-T both use scrambled_idle packets to maintain a 0V DC bias of the AC coupled Ethernet bus

Re: [PSES] Spare parts and EMC directive

Amund, I think the key to the spare parts issue for the EMC directive is in the definition of apparatus. Flowchart 2 in the guidance document does a good job of helping with classification of items as apparatus or not. The answer depends partially on what *you* mean by spare part, and

Re: [PSES] Spare parts and EMC directive

Amund, The Blue Guide (circa 2000) says: Products which have been repaired (for example following a defect), without changing the original performance, purpose or type, are not to be considered as new products according to New Approach directives. Thus, such products need not undergo

Re: [PSES] Spare parts and EMC directive

The EMC Working Party issued a guidance document regarding aftermarket parts and spare parts in relation to the EMC and EMC Vehicle Directives. This document gives a clearer statement on the applicability of 2004/108/EC to spare parts. The document is written in regards to automotive parts, but

Re: [PSES] Ethernet Loading

Either of the two previous suggestions (pingspray and iperf) should provide most of what is needed. Both are written in C. Note that iperf can directly be used from command line, but also can be used as a library; so a solution to any special requirements can be had on the machine with gcc.

Re: [PSES] Critical Components definitions

Related to my original question, we normally keep the critical components list in the technical file. Looking at the 2006/42/EC New Machinery Directive Annex VII requirements for the technical file I don't see anything see anything that specifically refers to a critical components list. So

[PSES] SV: [PSES] Spare parts and EMC directive

Thanks to all who replied. Just want to add a comment . Let's say that an apparatus is not in production anymore. The spare part could be the apparatus main board. If is identical with the original main board, we should expect that the EMC performance of the apparatus is still unchanged after
