IEC 61000-4-39

(Showing 5 of 5)

IEC 61000-4-39 specifies immunity requirements for electrical and electronic equipment when it is exposed to radiated electromagnetic energy from RF transmitters used in close proximity. It establishes test levels and the required test procedures. The applicable frequency range is 9 kHz to 6 GHz.

The EMC Shop stocks test equipment to perform IEC 61000-4-39 radiated fields in close proximity - immunity test.

IEC 61000-4-39 OVERVIEW

Immunity of EUTs to disturbances from RF transmitters can be tested using several different methods, including those described in IEC 61000-4-3, IEC 61000-4-20, IEC 61000-4-21, IEC 61000-4-22 and IEC 61000-4-39. This part of IEC 61000 describes test methods unique to the situation in which the transmitter is used in close proximity to the EUT and the case of inhomogeneous magnetic fields.

In this context, “close proximity” generally refers to separation distances between the transmitter and the equipment of 200 mm or less for RF fields (frequencies greater than 26 MHz) and 500 mm for magnetic fields (frequencies lower than 26 MHz). Fixed-installation equipment being exposed to portable transmitting devices, mobile equipment exposed to fixed transmitting devices and mobile equipment exposed to other mobile transmitting devices are considered.

IEC 61000-4-39 TEST METHODS

  • Inhomogeneous magnetic fields
    • 9 kHz to 150 kHz
    • 150 kHz to 26 MHz
  • Radiated RF Fields
    • 150 kHz to 26 MHz (Not required in 2017 Edition)
  • Radiated RF Fields
    • 380 MHz to 6 GHz
