Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 6-2: Generic standards - Immunity for industrial environments

This part of 61000 for EMC immunity requirements applies to electrical and electronic*apparatus intended for use in industrial environments, as described below. Immunity*requirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are covered. No tests need to be*performed at frequencies where no requirements are specified.*This generic EMC immunity standard is applicable if no relevant dedicated product or*product-family EMC immunity standard exists.*This standard applies to apparatus intended to be connected to a power network supplied*from a high or medium voltage transformer dedicated to the supply of an installation feeding*manufacturing or similar plant, and intended to operate in or in proximity to industrial*locations, as described below. This standard applies also to apparatus which is battery*operated and intended to be used in industrial locations.*The environments encompassed by this standard are industrial, both indoor and outdoor.*Industrial locations are in addition characterised by the existence of one or more of the*following:*- industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) apparatus (as defined in CISPR 11);*- heavy inductive or capacitive loads are frequently switched;*- currents and associated magnetic fields are high.*The object of this standard is to define immunity test requirements for apparatus defined in*the scope in relation to continuous and transient, conducted and radiated disturbances,*including electrostatic discharges.*The immunity requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of immunity for*apparatus at industrial locations. The levels do not, however, cover extreme cases, which*may occur at any location, but with an extremely low probability of occurrence. Not all*disturbance phenomena have been included for testing purposes in this standard, but only*those considered as relevant for the equipment covered by this standard. These test*requirements represent essential electromagnetic compatibility immunity requirements.*Test requirements are specified for each port considered.*
