You have designed and built a great new electrical product that meets market demands and trumps competitive offerings. You are confident that it doesn’t radiate much energy and is not susceptible to outside interference.  Yet when you do final EMC testing, your product fails.

This is the nightmare scenario for product designers.  Unit redesign and retesting will bust the budget and cause the product release date to slip by weeks or even months.

To avoid this scenario, pre-compliance testing should be built into a project from the start.  Testing for device emissions and immunity during each major development stage is the best way to avoid costly retesting and high failure rates.

 


Helping you avoid unexpected electromagnetic interference & compatibility compliance issues for faster market access.

The earlier product deficiencies are identified in the development process, the easier it is to rectify any shortcomings, saving time and money.  This is especially true for a design team that is smaller or less experienced, as they are less likely to consider all the factors that influence EMC compliance.

Just as chefs occasionally sample their creations while cooking, adjusting seasonings and ingredients to suit, product developers occasionally need to get a “taste” of their product’s EMI environment to know how to adjust the product’s design.

When testing is integrated into development, a testing chamber and expert advice is available during the entire project lifecycle.  Our experienced Engineers at our multiple EMC test labs have seen thousands of products, and can offer standard risk avoidance strategies and mitigation best practices.

Cost Savings
Early EMC pre-screening can not only identify when a unit is under-engineered, it can save money by reducing over-engineering. The inability to gauge the electromagnetic environment of a product can lead to counter-measures being added where they are not required. These unjustified counter-measures have the potential to add unit cost for the lifetime of the product.

Our comprehensive services run the gamut from expert services, to EMC testing for any life-cycle stage of your product, and certification.
