CE Marking - High Tech Equipment

A large proportion of specialist, high technology equipment such as scientific instrumentation is designed and produced by small and medium sized companies. It is not unusual for the detailed regulatory requirements to be forgotten about when the time pressures of new product development start to take their toll.

We have built up long term relationships with manufacturers which allow us to provide simple, pragmatic help with such issues as electrical safety and reduction in EM emissions and susceptibility. We also provide a remedial service for products that are about to launch (or have already escaped!) and still have problems.

On example of this was an "emergency" remedial programme undertaken for a UK-based scientific instrument manufacturer. They had developed a new unit as a replacement for an ageing product. A few weeks before launch is was sent to us for assessment; unfortunately after an initial EMC assessment it was apparent that the EM emissions from the unit were at an unacceptable level. It was agreed that we would carry out modification work to remedy the situation and provide a set of detailed corrective actions to bring the existing production unit into compliance. This work was completed quickly ensuring that the launch date did not need to be changed.
