Radiated Emissions tests.
4.1. Test Equipment
EMT 3m site in Inniscarra, Co. Cork.
Biconical Antenna -Eaton 94455-1 (S/N 1220)
Log periodic Antenna - EMCO 3146 (S/N 9210-3462)
Advantest Spectrum Analyser R3361A (S/N 11730606)
Rhode and Schwarz ESVS 30 receiver (S/N 826006/004)
10m UHF cable with ferrites (S/N EMT#008)
Hewlett Packard 8447F amplifier. (S/N 3113A06542)
4.2. Measurements
Tests were performed in accordance with the radiated emissions aspect of
EN55022. Limits at 3m are 10dB above those at 10m.
Note: when reading the measurements noted on the site on the day it is
necessary to compare the ambient signals for the site also. These
ambient signals are signals that are present even when the EUT is
removed. A final measurement is taken in QP and that is the level
compared against the limits. QP reading are either the same as, or less,
than peak readings. The graphs show peak readings. The receiver is
used to measure the QP level after the signal has been noted in the peak
graph. Any signals over the limit in the graphs were verified by EMT as
being ambient signals.
VHF is used to designate use of the Eaton antenna (30MHz to 200MHz)
and UHF is used to designate use of the Log-periodic antenna (200MHz to
1GHz)
Emissions when running in 600W and 1200W were the same.

4.9.2. Conducted Immunity test method
The test method used was direct injection onto the mains cord. This test
method is described in EN61000-4-6 and the limits are defined in EN
61000-6-2
The test comprised setting up the cable to have 150Ω termination at both
ends and then injecting a signal into either the direct coupler or the
electromagnetic clamp. The power level on the 8648A AM frequency
generator needed to get 10V on the cable was noted for each frequency.
The power cable was now attached to the injection box and the noted
levels applied to the RF port.

4.10.2. Test Method, Interference Levels & Performance Criteria
This test is performed in accordance with the basic standard EN61000-4-3
referred to by EN 61000-6-2
This is a substitution method and the levels were determined by first
radiating the isotropic antenna after placing it in the same position as the
EUT would be during the tests. After noting the power required to give
RF levels of 10V/m at the EUT, the isotropic antenna was removed and
replaced with the EUT.
