Emi-Rfi filters, radio frequency interference and CE Marking

EMI (electromagnetic interference) also referred to RFI (radio frequency interference), is a type of electrical or emissions that can degrade, impair or prevent electrical circuits from performing as intended, or cause failures. EMI-RFI filters are used to suppress interference generated by a device within a machine, or from other nearby equipment with noise generation, as well as protect a machine from emitting interference signals into the environment.

The CE mark is an international reference for industrial and residential standards of electronic applications. Enerdoor’s on-site CE certification testing specializes in the measurement and analysis of electromagnetic compatibility of systems in accordance with the EMC, FCC Part 15 and Safety Directives. The CE Directive dictates that all electric and electronic components in machinery and manufacturing plants must meet the minimum requirements indicated by the Directive.
