[PSES] 24 volt dimmable 60 to 100W FCC Part 15 Class B conducted emissions (CE) compliant?
Hi everyone: It seems that there are lots of dimmable 24V LED power supplies out there, but the first 3 or 4 that we have looked at do not pass CE for various loading conditions. These are not simple 24V DC output supplies, these also have a two-terminal input port to accept a 0-10V analog or PWM control signal or variable resistance to dim the attached LEDs (NOT using high-side triac). I know there is a lot of experience and ideas on this listserv, but I'm not looking for workarounds like external AC input or DC output filters, I'm looking for an off-the-shelf supply that actually passes :-). Can anyone suggest a manufacturer or series? MeanWell dominates and some of their standard 24V supplies are good, but we have "different experience" with the dimmables. What a pain!

FCC Part 15 Class B Self Verifying
Ok Group, I appreciate all your helpful responses. It appears that 'Self Verifying' and 'Declaring Conformity' take on slightly different meanings depending on the type of equipment. Let's say that the equipment is not a personal computer or computer peripheral. I want to 'Self Verify' where I do all the testing and retain the test results. Can I label my equipment with any kind of statement indicating that the equipment is Class B compliant? If yes, does the Class B information on the label mean anything without an FCC ID? Let's apply the same question, if I were to go the DoC route, where the device has been tested by a certified testing lab. Can I label my equipment with any kind of statement indicating that the equipment is Class B compliant? All the information that I have read, isn't very clear.

RE: FCC Part 15 Class B
While it is true that all personal computers destined for the home user must be Class B and therefore, "Certified", it is not true that any device that meets Class B limits must, as a consequence, also be Certified. Thus, if the device falls into the product category under FCC Verification (professional and other equipment not destined for the home user and not available for general distribution in retail stores) such devices (as FCC is wont to call them!) can be "verified" as meeting Class B limits. We have seen in the past Intel and IBM high-end industrial PCs that have been verified as meeting Class B limits, at a time when you still had to mention the Class in the mandatory verification markings on the product. However, you never saw these PCs available in your local computer/electronic store. Those of us in the industry that use such PCs are very pleased that they meet Class B limits even if legally (per FCC) they don't have to. Thus, such PCs could still be marked as verified to Class A limits; however, if they meet Class B, why not state so. If you've got it, flaunt it!

RE: FCC Part 15 Class B
It depends on the product. Attached is a copy of a chart found in Subpart B that details the action needed for different products. There are different labelling requirements for Class B products that can use the DoC route.

Re: FCC Part 15 Class B
See 15.101. Class B personal computers and peripherals may use either the Certification or Declaration of Conformity equipment authorization procedure. "Other class B digital devices and peripherals" are subject to the Verification equipment authorization procedure. Be careful as Verification is not the same as Declaration of Conformity with different labeling requirements, test site accreditation requirements, etc. See 47 CFR Part 2 for detailed descriptions of the equipment authorization procedures.

Re: FCC Part 15 Class B
Yes, class B ITE can be self-verified. However, if the ITE is a personal computer or personal computer peripheral, then the Declaration of Conformity procedure must be followed. The DofC procedure is essentially self-certification, but requires that the testing be performed at an accredited test laboratory (NVLAP, AALA).

Re: FCC part 15 class B, GTEM
Ron, In ANSI C63.4-1992 (American National Standard for Methods of Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9 KHz to 40 GHz) paragraph 5.4.2 Alternate Test Sites, there is instructions on how to take measurements at an alternate test site (say a GTEM) and get the relevant authority (FCC) to accept them for final compliance . It involves the taking of measurements in a GTEM and at an OATS and showing they correlate for your product under test and then sending it to the FCC. We have done this and the FCC sent us a letter sort of approving our GTEM. There was a caveat in the letter and at the end of 5.4.2 that says in cases of disagreements measurements at an OATS take precedence. I had also heard that in ANSI C63.4-1999 version that GTEM's were going to be listed as an alternate test site making the performance of the above unnecessary. Does anyone know if the listing of the GTEM as an alternate test site in ANSI C63.4-1999 took place.? Hope this helps. Sandy Mazzola Regulatory Engineer Symbol Technologies Inc.

RE: FCC part 15 class B, GTEM?
The FCC allowed GTEMs to be used as an alternative test site for making radiated emissions measurements under Part 15 of the FCC rules on Dec 2 1993 via public notice #40830. Regarding "correlation measurements": this Public Notice states that "Acceptable comparison data must be filed with the Customer Service Branch accompanied by an appropriate analysis that demonstrates equivalence with an OATS." and that "comparison data must be provided for each general type of equipment under test (equipment of similar functionality and physical configuration" GTEM manufacturers such as Schaffner, EMCO etc should be able to provide the required methodology etc!

RE: FCC part 15 class B, testing
This is really a no brainer... To summarize: The answer to your questions is NO for the following reasons: 1. You are testing in an anechoic chamber (Read also K.Javors analysis) 2. The antenna cannot be raised to its full height requirement. Thats the bad news. The good news is that the FCC have accepted semi-anechoic chambers that meet the ANSI C63.4 site attenuation criteria as sutiable for compiance data. I suggest you contact them for more advice. The "Gold Standard" IMHO is still the OATS. -Original Message- From: ron_cher...@densolabs.com [mailto:ron_cher...@densolabs.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 1999 11:30 AM To: emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org Subject: FCC part 15 class B, testing I would like to know if I can take compliance data for FCC part 15 class B in an anechoic chamber if I can't vary the receive antenna from 1 to 4 metres??

RE: FCC part 15 class B, testing - correction
The specification is now prEN50147-3 Emission measurements in Fully Anechoic Rooms The specification has just finished being fully translated and is about to go to vote by the CENELEC committee. MIRA have been involved in the development of this standard for a long time, this has included quite a detailed measurement program to determine the accuracy correlation between measurements made on OATS sites and fully anechoic sites. The correlation is not quite 6 dB, a correction factor of 5 dB has proved more accurate. As for the height scanning, in theory one fixed height should measure all emissions but in truth as the EUT size increases two or three heights should be examined to ensure the peak measurement is recorded.

Re: FCC part 15 class B, testing
Hello, Some months ago, I ask the same question to FCC. Their answer was very clear !! As there is no standard allowing the use of an anechoic chamber for now, you cannot use it to perform test for FCC certification. We use our anechoic chamber to identify the frequencies from the product under test, AND we perform final measurements on our OATS. This process is fully accepted by FCC.

RE: FCC part 15 class B, testing
Hi Ron I don't know if the FCC will accept measurements taken is an anechoic chamber but. If you want to make some meaningful measurements in a chamber you have to make sure it is truly anechoic, you do not want any reflected waves. You should have the chamber validated to show that the chamber normalised site transmission loss is within +/-4dB of free space. As a consequence of the chamber being anechoic, you do not vary the height of the receiving antenna as there is no reflected wave from the ground. The antenna height will correspond to the centre of your calibrated "test volume". You have to remember that the measurements will be 6dB lower than those taken at an OATS because of the missing ground reflection, you should adjust your limits accordingly. The standard EN50147-2:1997 "Anechoic chambers. Alternative site suitability with respect to site attenuation" explains everything in detail.
