BEMC - Laboratorium Badan EMC (MAWI)
About
BEMC was established in 2013 as a separate research and development division of MAWI and operates from Przemyslowa in Rzezawa, east of Krakow in the Malopolskie region of southern Poland. It was accredited by the Polish Centre for Accreditation on 25 March 2015 under accreditation number AB 1555, and covers electromagnetic compatibility together with electrical safety testing. Two modern semi-anechoic chambers form the core of the facility, each fitted with a fully automatic turntable and antenna mast so radiated emission sweeps run unattended rather than requiring manual repositioning at each height and azimuth. What makes this record unusually precise is that BEMC publishes its accredited methods down to the amendment level - PN-EN 55011:2016-05+A1+A2+A11, PN-EN 55032:2015-09+AC+Ap1+A1+A11, PN-EN IEC 55014-1:2021-08, PN-EN IEC 55015:2019-11+A11 and PN-EN 55016-2-1:2014-09+A1+AC for emissions, with PN-EN 55016-2-3:2017-06+A1 for radiated work - which is exactly the level of detail a compliance engineer needs to confirm a report will be accepted. Radiated emission measurement runs from 30 MHz to 6 GHz with a separate large-loop antenna system method covering 9 kHz to 30 MHz, and radiated immunity covers 80 MHz to 6 GHz. The immunity scope extends past the common set to PN-EN 61000-4-13 for low-frequency harmonics and interharmonics immunity and PN-EN 61000-4-14 for voltage fluctuation immunity, neither of which is routinely held. Harmonic current emission is measured to PN-EN 61000-3-2 in both the 2014 and 2019 editions with amendment A1:2021-08, using PN-EN 61000-4-7 instrumentation. Product sectors served are industrial equipment, scientific instruments, railway equipment, machinery, multimedia, medical equipment, measuring instruments and lighting. Specialisations are automated radiated emission measurement, large-loop antenna magnetic field emission, low-frequency immunity and combined EMC with electrical safety assessment.
