Exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF - ElectroMagnetic Field)
Measurement, assessment and regulatory compliance
CE marking your products and protecting your staff and users - Waves and health
Exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) is now a major regulatory, technical and societal issue. The Emitech Groupassists manufacturers, employers, integrators and infrastructure managers in assessing exposure to electromagnetic fields in accordance with current regulatory and standard requirements.
We provide reliable and recognised measurement services within the framework of Directive 2013/35/EU (protection of workers), Decree No. 2002-775 (protection of the public), and requirements related to the compliance of electronic and radio products.
Our customers & areas of application
- Electronics and RF industries (telecoms, defence, rail, space, energy)
- Local authorities, building operators, infrastructure operators
- Manufacturers of consumer or professional products with a high RF component
- Employers subject to Directive 2013/35/EU
- Health, safety and environment (HSE) professionals
Your EMF challenges, our expertise
Conformity assessment of products and equipment, EMF requirements are an integral part of CE marking
- Verification of compliance with the EMF requirements of the RED Directive (2014/53/EU) or the CE marking
- Radioelectric equipment: Wi-Fi, 5G, IoT, medical devices
- Verification of compliance with EMF requirements under the RED Directive (Article 3.1a)
- Tests carried out in accordance with current harmonised standards (EN 62233, EN 62479, EN 62311, EN 50364, etc.)
- Proof of compliance with harmonised standards applicable to RF transmitting equipment
- Laboratory or on-site tests in configurations representative of use
Regulatory compliance and protection of individuals
- Compliance with exposure limit values (ELVs) for workers (Directive 2013/35/EU)
- Measures for mapping zones by exposure level
- Risk management recommendations (signage, safety distance, shielding, etc.)
- Risk reduction for wearers of active medical implants (pacemakers, cochlear implants, etc.)
- Support in implementing corrective actions and collective or individual protection measures
Environmental exposure measures
