Short profile:
The company was formed in 1995 after successfully offering EMC services for many years as part of York Electronics Centre, the commercial arm of the Department of Electronics. The headquarters is located on the University campus. The largest part of York EMC Services’ business is EMC testing and the Castleford Laboratory has been in operation since 1996.
In February 2000, York EMC Services purchased the Donibristle Laboratory which was previously owned by GEC-Marconi Avionics, and we added the Bristol Laboratory, formerly Global Telecommunication Laboratories (GTL), in 2007. In addition to testing at the three UKAS accredited laboratories, York EMC Services also specialises in on-site testing which is required for the EMC assessment of physically large equipment.
York EMC Services is a Department of Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform appointed Notified Body for the assessment of Technical Documentation under the EMC Directive.
Detailed description:
Notified Body activities are carried out at both the York and Donibristle offices. Through the link to the Department of Electronics, we have been running industry relevant training courses in EMC for 20 years whilst our contract consultancy and research activities date back to 1983. Examples of the kind of problems we have solved include: examining interference issues associated with electrified railways (interference to both railway and non railway systems); looking at interference to medical devices and systems in hospitals; and controlling interference to commercial radio services such as TV, radio and mobile telecommunications. In solving these problems, we apply a variety of techniques including computational electromagnetic modelling (CEM), analytical techniques, measurements and previous experience. Finally, our portfolio of EMC instruments contains a range of specialist EMC test equipment to assist organisations carrying out EMC testing at all levels.
At York EMC Services, we appreciate the challenge which faces manufacturers trying to get to grips with the complexities of EMC and LVD testing. We understand that many manufacturers need help and advice when determining the applicable standards and how to apply them. This is where York EMC Services can help as we consider that our business is not just about testing (lots of labs do that) but about building lasting relationships with customers through helping them to achieve compliance with the EMC Directive. We've been doing this for over 10 years.
York EMC Services Ltd is the award-winning, leading provider of EMC research based consultancy services to UK and overseas industry. Our dynamic link to research carried out by the Department of Electronics at the University of York sets us apart from other consultancies and keeps us at the forefront of developments in EMC research.
