Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) defines the ability of electrical or electronic devices to work properly in a specific electromagnetic environment by achieving an appropriate level of immunity and limiting the emission of disturbances intolerable to other operating devices. An electromagnetic disturbance is an electromagnetic phenomenon that may interfere with the operation of the device. The source of the disturbance are objects emitting electromagnetic waves unintentionally (household appliances, electronic devices) as well as intentionally (TV and radio stations, mobile phones).Compatible devices are resistant to surges and changes in the power grid, electrostatic discharge, radio waves and other electromagnetic phenomena.

Electromagnetic compatibility tests are necessary to legally mark a product with the CE mark and sell electronic and electrical devices in Poland or other European Union countries.

The Zamel laboratory offers equipment testing for compliance withEN / IEC 61000 standard at the construction level in the scope of:

• resistance to fast-pulse impulse (BURST) series;
• high energy shock resistance test (SURGE);
• test of resistance to transient states of the supply voltage (dips, shortinterrupts, hesitation);
• ESD electrostatic discharge immunity test.

We have an ultra-compact UCS 500 simulator at the measuring stationwith N5 module, DITO electrostatic discharge simulator and capacitivea coupling clamp as well as accessories for studying RF-induced disorders.The manufacturer of these devices is a leader in the field of specialized equipmentmeasuring company EMTEST. Test devices have very good propertiesutility, convenient connection of measuring apparatus, clear menu structure. They ownthey have built-in standardized test kits so that measurements are easy,reliable and secure.

In our laboratory, in addition to standardized tests, it is possible to carry out"user" tests. During their implementation we have the ability to change parameterstest freely in order to more accurately verify the operation of the devices tested and to detect any errors at the device design level.Test devices are calibrated in the company's accredited testing laboratoryEMTEST and guarantee full compliance with standards.
The tests are carried out under the supervision of qualified engineering staffstandardized test stand.
During the tests it is possible to register its course (recording via a camera to a computer hard drive).Research carried out in our laboratory is a solid basis for final testingcarried out in an accredited laboratory.
In addition to high-class measuring equipment, our laboratory also has facilitiesenabling rapid modification of the structure during testing - positionsoldering, parts magazine (capacitors, coils, chokes, resistors) and wiring.We also have basic measuring equipment in the form of multimeters.As part of the service, we provide measuring equipment to the interested company / personhigh class. We provide assistance in its use (especially for user tests)and test configuration. However, the person joining the study should do so on their ownprepare their program and define according to what standards and at what levels they should betests performed.
