Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
MCS Test is a leading consultant and supplier of Compliant and Pre-Compliant EMC Test Equipment. We offer a wide range of EMC test equipment, from individual components to complete test solutions.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function acceptably in their electromagnetic environment.
In radio engineering, an antenna is the interface between radio waves propagating through space and electric currents moving in metal conductors, used with a transmitter or receiver. In transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an electric current to the antenna's terminals, and the antenna radiates the energy from the current as electromagnetic waves (radio waves).
EMI/EMC testing is a critical step in bringing a new product to market. EMC testing is critical for managing risk in medical device manufacturing. Devices must be able to work together in close environments without interference or noise compromising performance.
RF and microwave power meters are used in various areas of RF development, design, test, service repair and field service. RF power meters are available in different types such as in-line, absorptive, etc.
RF preamplifiers are widely used to improve system sensitivity and can be especially useful in EMI/EMC radiated emissions test systems. The wide bandwidth antennas typically used for radiated emission measurements often have high transducer factors which can impact the overall measurement sensitivity for the system.
When conducting tests for electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions in your electrical equipment, you should consider a motorised wooden turntable - it supports and rotates your desktop or floor standing equipment and allows you to conduct effective and accurate EMC tests.
Transient limiters protect EMI receivers and spectrum analysers from transients, or random surges of energy. EMI receivers and similar electromagnetic susceptibility devices are routinely injected with bursts of energy as part of EMC testing, and as a result, may experience damage via intense feedback.
RF field probes are critical to the implementation of a proper radiated immunity test system. We have RF Field Probes available from LUMILOOP.
A Spectrum Analyser measures the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency within the full frequency range of the instrument. The primary use is to measure the power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals.
A Signal Generator is an electronic device that generates repeating or non-repeating electronic signals in either the analog or the digital domain. These generated signals are used as a stimulus for electronic measurements.
Renting your EMC equipment from MCS enables you to obtain the equipment you need now, without needing to rely on capital budget, compromise on quality, or spread the acquisition of multiple items over a number of years. We have a number of flexible finance packages available:
When designing electrical equipment, machines and systems, it is necessary to check the products from an EMC and safety point of view. These test are mandated by international standards and are designed to protect the user from potential harm and to ensure the performance of equipment is maintained in the event of electrical disturbances.
All 3 of NEXIO's recent webinars are now available online. The Webinars discuss new features and improvements of NEXIO's BAT-EMC 2020 software update.
At the beginning of calendar year 2020, an old model of the "SESD 200" series successfully passed Schlöder's factory calibration in accordance with the IEC 61000-4-2 standard.
One of the very few combined IEC 61000-4-6 test systems that include the RF signal generator, a RF-power amplifier, a 3-channel RF voltmeter and a directional coupler for a very reasonable price.
