EN 50370-2 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) - Product Family Standard for Machine Tools - Part 2: Standard Test Method for Immunity

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 50370-2 testing. This standard covers electromagnetic immunity of machine tools specially designed for industrial and similar purposes using electricity, the rated voltage of the machine tool does not exceed 1000 V ac or 1500 V dc between lines.

Machine tools may contain motors, heating elements or combinations thereof, may contain electrical or electronic circuitry, and may be powered from the mains or any other electrical power source. This immunity standard can also be used to evaluate equipment used in other environments that require less stringent immunity levels (residential, light industry) than the industrial environment.

This standard is not designed for the EMC conformity assessment of modules to be marketed separately. This standard is not in line with the 98/37/EC Machinery Directive. Therefore, safety aspects are not covered by this standard. This standard does not cover fixed installations defined in the application guide of the directive 89/336/EEC published by the European Commission.

This standard does not apply to devices intended for use where special electromagnetic conditions prevail, such as the presence of high electromagnetic fields (for example, near a broadcast transmitting station) or where high pulses occur in the power supply. In these cases, special mitigation measures may be required. Immunity requirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are met. There is no need to measure at frequencies where the requirements are not specified.

These tests should normally be performed under the test conditions specified in the basic immunity standards (these test conditions may include in situ testing, as long as they are specified in the basic immunity standards).
