EMC measurement and testing
The EMC Lab specialising in product development provides services for testing and developing the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of products. We offer a wide range of tests to ensure the functionality and safety of your products in a variety of environments.
Our services
We offer electromagnetic emission and immunity tests that can be applied to most products in office, residential and industrial environments.
EMC emissions
- For example, EN 55011, EN 55032, EN 55022, EN 55015
- conducted emissions 9 kHz to 30 MHz
- radiated emissions 30 MHz to 3 GHz.
Immunity testing
- RF immunity 80 MHz–6 GHz (IEC 61000-4-3)
- conducted RF immunity 0.15–100 MHz (IEC 61000-4-6)
- electrostatic discharge (ESD, IEC 61000-4-2)
- transient immunity (EFT, IEC 61000-4-4)
- surge immunity, IEC 61000-4-5
- voltage dips & short interruptions (IEC 61000-4-11)
- magnetic field testing (IEC 61000-4-8)
Interference-proof and attenuated RF testing
- The test space has an attenuation of 100 dB and return loss of > 20dB in the 30 MHz–18 GHz frequency range.
- Measurements of radio interference of RF equipment and antennas can also be carried out in the room.
- The maximum dimensions of the EUT that can fit into our interference-protected test room (6.7 x 4 x 3.3 m) are approximately 220 x 97 x 180 cm (L x W x H). The load capacity of the turn table is 400 kg. The height of the door frame limits the height of your product, but if the device can be brought in horizontally and straightened inside, the device height may be slightly over 2 m.
Exposure studies for lighting equipment
- 20 kHz–10 MHz (IEC 62493)

Interference-proof room and standard testing equipment
Launching products on the market requires compliance with standards and a Declaration of Confirmation from the company. In the EU, these include the EMC Directive and the CE mark. There are a large number of international EMC standards and, in addition to product-specific standards, there are general specifications for testing. However, these standards often use the same or similar test arrangements and measuring instruments.
Our EMC laboratory has the equipment required for the most common tests. The EMC Laboratory uses an interference-protected test room and standard testing equipment. In addition, our equipment includes measuring instruments for electronics and RF technology as well as components and protective materials needed in EMC design. It is possible to make modifications and repairs to the tested equipment with the assistance of experienced staff, and tests can be run again on an expedited schedule.
More than 50 companies use EMC laboratory annually
The EMC Laboratory at the Turku University of Applied Sciences has carried out product development testing in cooperation with companies for 30 years. Some companies have been involved in developing the laboratory from the beginning and are still actively involved. The companies represent different sectors of the technology industry, such as telecommunications, electronics, electrical power engineering, automation, medical and laboratory equipment, measuring equipment and lighting technology.
