Elec­tro­mag­netic com­pat­i­bil­ity test­ing in EMC lab EN 61547

EN 61547:2009 Equip­ment for gen­eral light­ing pur­poses — EMC immu­nity require­ments (IEC 61547:2009)

Scope
Inter­na­tional stan­dard EN 61547:2009 is applic­a­ble to lamps, aux­il­iaries
and lumi­naires, intended either for con­nect­ing to a low volt­age elec­tric­ity sup­ply or for bat­tery oper­a­tion.

Excluded from the stan­dard EN 61547:2009 are fol­low­ing equip­ment:
• light­ing equip­ment for use in trans­port vehi­cles, such as trains, busses, and cars;
• enter­tain­ment light­ing con­trol equip­ment for pro­fes­sional pur­poses;
• light­ing devices built into other equip­ment such as– scale indi­ca­tors, pho­to­copiers, pro­jec­tors, mul­ti­me­dia equip­ment.

Clas­si­fi­ca­tion
Inter­na­tional stan­dard EN 61547:2009 have no spe­cific over­all clas­si­fi­ca­tion of equip­ment.

Exam­ples
Lumi­nar­ies, LED lamps, street LED light­ing devices, table lamps, office light­ing equip­ment.

Require­ments
Elec­tro­sta­tic dis­charge (ESD) immu­nity.
Elec­tro­mag­netic field immu­nity.
Power fre­quency mag­netic field immu­nity.
Volt­age dip and short inter­rup­tion immu­nity at power ports.
Elec­tri­cal fast tran­sients– burst immu­nity.
Surge immu­nity.
Con­ducted radio fre­quency immu­nity.

Per­for­mance cri­te­ria

Cri­te­ria A
Dur­ing the test­ing, no change of the light­ing inten­sity shall be observed. Reg­u­lat­ing con­trols shall oper­ate dur­ing the test­ing as intended.

Cri­te­ria B
Dur­ing the test­ing, the light­ing inten­sity may change to any value. After the test­ing, the light­ing inten­sity shall be restored to its ini­tial value within 1min. Dur­ing the test­ing, reg­u­lat­ing con­trols are allowed to stop func­tion­ing, but after the test, the device should restore the mode same as before the test­ing. Con­trols shall be in oper­at­ing order after the test­ing.

Cri­te­ria C
Dur­ing and after the test­ing, any change of the light­ing inten­sity is allowed. 30min after the test­ing all func­tions of equip­ment shall return to nor­mal oper­a­tion, it is allowed to inter­rupt the mains sup­ply and/​or con­trols.

EMC test­ing

RF EMC DEVEL­OP­MENT pro­vides accred­ited EMC test­ing to reach Euro­pean mar­ket. We hold a long list of Euro­pean stan­dards for such indus­tries as– house­hold, indus­trial, auto­mo­tive, med­ical, tele­com, rail­way and aero­space. Our test lab­o­ra­tory is accred­ited by Euro­pean noti­fied bod­ies accord­ing to ISO17025. Save your time by try­ing to cou­ple EMC test­ing with other tests and CE cer­ti­fi­ca­tion needs (safety, envi­ron­men­tal, energy effi­ciency, performance).


Cer­ti­fi­ca­tion

Through our part­ners, noti­fied bod­ies in Euro­pean Union, RF EMC DEVEL­OP­MENT pro­vides cer­ti­fi­ca­tion ser­vices for man­u­fac­tur­ers, retail­ers, dis­trib­u­tors and sup­pli­ers to enter EU mar­ket. We pro­vide all ser­vices to cer­tifi­cate your prod­ucts in short time span– EMC test­ing, LVD test­ing, devel­op­ment for such prod­ucts as: light­ing equip­ment, auto­mo­tive, con­sumer elec­tron­ics, indus­trial elec­tronic and machin­ery, med­ical equip­ment, telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions and wood­work­ing equip­ment etc.
