RE: EMC Directive Applicability to Mother Boards
Really? I sure don’t! :-) Exactly how does a PC Motherboard manufacturer demonstrate compliance to the EMC directive? From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Jim Hulbert Sent: Friday, June 19, 2009 7:41 AM To: EMC-PSTC (emc-p...@ieee.org) Subject: RE: EMC Directive Applicability to Mother Boards Again, thanks for all the responses. I have a pretty good understanding now of how the Directive applies to components & sub-assemblies. Jim Hulbert From: emc-p...@ieee.org [mailto:emc-p...@ieee.org] On Behalf Of Jim Hulbert Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2009 5:03 PM To: EMC-PSTC (emc-p...@ieee.org) Subject: EMC Directive Applicability to Mother Boards Does a PC motherboard by itself fall under the scope of the EMC Directive? Article 2, paragraph 2(a) states that for the purposes of the Directive, the following is deemed an apparatus: "components" or "sub-assemblies" intended for incorporation into an apparatus by the end user, which are liable to generate electromagnetic disturbance, or the performance of which is liabile to be affected by such disturbance. Therefore, I think a PC motherboard (or any other commercially available PC board) falls under the Directive. Am I correct?

A Google search suggests that maybe the standard was never approved. It may be that sections of EN 60335-2 cover the subject adequately. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.

Re: Foodsafety standard
The prEN never made it to full EN status, but there is instead EN ISO 14159:2004 (and now :2008) "Safety of machinery. Hygiene requirements for the design of machinery". Type C food machinery standards tend to include hygiene requirements. I have a copy of prEN 1672-1 if you really need to know what is says. Nick.

Foodsafety standard
Hi out there ! Does anyone know where i can obtain a copy of a now cancelled standard prEN 1672-1 Safety Requirements for Foodprocessing Machinery ? The Danish Standard association are not able to supply this :-( Eventhough it has been cancelled it contained (i am told) many good inspirational aspects.
