this amendment actually adopted, delayed or recalled?

NEMA 4 cabinet questions

1999-08-12 Thread JENKINS, JEFF

Some questions about using a NEMA 4 cabinet:

(1) Is the environment inside the cabinet considered pollution degree 1, no
matter what the external environment is?

(2) We need to install a water drain at the bottom of the cabinet.  Can we
use a positive-acting valve without violating the cabinet's NEMA 4 rating?

(3) The cabinet doors will need to be opened periodically for maintenance.
How does this affect the pollution degree inside the cabinet?

By the way, these questions are in the context of certifying the product
under the CB 950 scheme.

Thanks,

Electrical Equipment Using Liquid Lithium Chloride

1999-08-12 Thread Peter Merguerian

Dear All,

I am working on a dehumidifier used as an accessory for  a central 
air conditioning system used on the rooftop. It employs an 
electrical control box, compressor, fan unit and large amounts of 
Lithium Chloride which is usually handled by service personnel.

1. What is the level of lithium chloride which can be emitted to the 
air in North America? What about Europe?

2. Are there any special precautions which must be taken when 
designing the equipment in regards to protection against human 
touch and/or inhalation of this liquid compound?

3. The UL1995 Standard for Heating and Cooling Equipment 
covering the product does not contain the additional requirements 
needed for chemical hazards? How are chemical hazards treated 
when evaluating any equipment for UL and any other NRTL. How 
about Europe?

Thanks in Advance,

Horn antennas, pre-amplifier, and return loss measurement

1999-08-12 Thread Leslie Bai

Hi, Folks,

Is there anyone can direct me to some sources
of horn antennas  preamplifiers.

What I need are sets of horn antenna for spurious
emissions testing to meet FCC Part 101.

1 to 18GHz, 
18 to 26.5GHz, 26.5 to 40GHz, or 18 to 40GHz instead,
40 to 60GHz, 50 to 75GHz, or 40 to 75GHz instead,
75 to 110GHz, 110 to 170GHz, or 75 to 170GHz instead.

Due to the significant space loss over 110GHz, I guess
I also need a set of preamplifier from 110 to 170GHz.

I am also studying on return loss measurement  
methodologies to meet ETSI requirement for
radios RF port. Since NAMAS calibration of
network analyzer may cost thousands bucks,
I am wondering if I could achieve a good result
(in terms of accuracy and uncertainty) using
spectrum analyser and waveguide coupler.
If anyone by any chance has an ready error model
of the test setup using spectrum analyzer and
waveguide coupler, I appreciate you could share
with me to short my research path.

Thanks in advance.

Digital logic and EMI

1999-08-12 Thread Donald McElheran


I have a subject the someone may be able to help with. 

I am wondering if any of the member have come across any helpful 
material evaluating various manufacturer's digital logic families as 
they relate to EMI issues? 

I know this is a very broad subject and many issue such as; 
speed, power consumption and drive capability all have an impact 
and must be consider in the same context. 

Am I dreaming in Technicolor?

Any help is always appreciated.

RE: China Standard for ITE product

1999-08-12 Thread RON_WELLMAN
Hello George,

To speed up CCIB certification under the Import/Export Commodity Inspection Law 
Safety License System it is recommended to have the line cord plug CCEE 
certified. However, it is not mandatory. To the best of my knowledge there is 
no line cord standard for China (PRC), only component standards for the plug, 
cordage, and connector.

Subject: China Standard for ITE product


The PRC GB 4943 is virtually equivalent to IEC 60950 (1995 version).
The only delta I know of is that tests are to +/-10% rated voltage versus
the norm of +6%/-10%.  A CB Certificate/Test Report, though not required,
is advised for time and cost purposes.  The line cord must have CCEE
approval and have the Great Wall mark.

As of 1/1/00 all listed ITE must also meet EMC EMI requirements based
on CISPR 22.  This includes previously safety approved products.

In summary, the requirements are not that much different from the global
230V community, although the process itself is the most complex I have
encountered with many agencies/offices involved (SAIQ, CQC, CCIB,
Review Offices, Testing Labs).

Jess,

I believe it is GB 4943 but it is only based on IEC 60950 and compliance
with IEC 60950 does not equate to compliance with GB4943.  You may wish to
know also that GB 1002 is a Chinese standard for mains power plugs.

Best regards,
Kevin


 Hi,

 Could someone please advise as what is the China standard(GB ???) that is
 equivalent to IEC950 (for I.T.E. product)?


 Thanks in advance !

 but we were told that this e-mail list may be a friendly way to obtain 
 good input from a wide variety of people in the industry.  Here is the 
 basic scoop on the situation. 
 
 We are a research firm that has been contracted by a group (still

 short study of some current trends and aspects of the compliance testing 
 industry. 
 
 We apologize for any ambiguity that this may present.  However, as 
 mentioned in our initial e-mail, we are looking for only as many people 
 as would feel free and open to share their opinions.  If you are 
 uncomfortable about any items that may be presented in our survey, you
