EMC self-pre-testing gives organisations access to advanced EMC test facilities, enabling electronic products to be tested during development to gain an early indication of EMC performance.

EMC Club facilities for EMC pre-testing of electronic products
Get early EMC performance insight and EMC Club access to self-pre-testing facilities during electronic product development.
Manufacturers and developers of electronic products may need an early indication of how a product is likely to perform when exposed to electromagnetic interference during development. The need typically arises when products must be assessed in scenarios such as near mobile phones, routers and RF transmitters, before later-stage accredited EMC testing or type approval tests.
EMC Club access and self-pre-testing facilities
EMC self-pre-testing gives access to advanced facilities where organisations can test products themselves and gain an early indication of EMC performance. EMC Club membership also provides access to basic EMC standards, systematic testing instructions, hands-on training, and advice and assistance. Membership also includes access to state-of-the-art equipment and the option to purchase EMC consultancy, supporting a successful and thorough pre-testing process.
Challenges
When EMC issues are not identified during development, later testing and product progress can be delayed.
EMC issues found late can delay later testing
If emission or immunity problems are first identified during later-stage accredited EMC testing or type approval tests, product changes may be needed when redesign and retesting have a greater impact on timelines and development progress.
Limited access to EMC facilities can leave issues unresolved
Without access to do-it-yourself facilities, basic EMC standards, systematic testing instructions and state-of-the-art equipment, development teams may have fewer opportunities to investigate product behaviour early and identify potential EMC issues before later testing.
Product behaviour near common interference sources can remain unclear
Without early EMC pre-testing, organisations may not know how products react to electromagnetic interference during development, leaving robustness questions unresolved.
Benefits
Get early EMC performance insight and access to facilities, training and expert support for self-pre-testing.
Investigate EMC behaviour during development
Engineers can explore product behaviour in realistic interference scenarios, allowing issues to be observed and addressed during development.
Access guidance during testing
During testing activities, EMC specialists are available for advice and assistance, helping users work with the facilities and testing setup.
