UL Japan List of Products and Services

A new EMC testing facility equipped with a large equipment electromagnetic wave anechoic chamber has started operations within UL Japan's Ise headquarters in Ise City, Mie Prefecture. <Acceleration of Electrification in the Construction Machinery Industry> To improve on-site safety and address labor shortages, the introduction of ICT and electrification in construction machinery is progressing. As construction machines are increasingly equipped with numerous electronic components, the importance of EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) testing is rising to prevent accidents caused by electromagnetic noise and interference. <Enforcement of Standards Related to Construction Machinery> In 2021, the enforcement of the latest standards for construction machinery, "EN ISO 13766-1, 2:2018," is scheduled. This enforcement will expand the upper frequency limit for radiated immunity and require electromagnetic wave exposure to the construction machinery body. In Europe, a standard transition is planned for 2021, and compliance with the latest standards will be necessary when launching products.

The Kashima EMC Testing Laboratory has constructed a next-generation mobility building equipped with two "EHV Chambers" capable of conducting EMC tests under real load environments that simulate driving conditions, starting operations in January 2020. With this equipment enhancement, EMC tests compliant with CISPR 25:2016 Ed.4 Annex I, ISO 11452-2 Ed.3 Clause 8, and GB/T 36282 will be possible. In addition to EMC testing, we have high-voltage equipment capable of testing LV 124, LV 123, and LV 148. We also offer wireless testing, allowing vehicle manufacturers to receive all required tests in a one-stop service. The next-generation mobility building will feature three anechoic chambers for vehicle use (including the two EHV Chambers) and three electrical testing rooms. The EHV Chambers are equipped with fixed dynamometers capable of reproducing real loads up to 125 N·m/12,000 rpm and a power absorption capacity of 170 kW. The dynamometer's gearbox has been redesigned to be placed outside the anechoic chamber, minimizing the size of metal objects located inside the chamber. This allows for measurements that are less affected by metal objects.

In response to customer requests for an overview and basic knowledge before requesting EMC testing for automotive equipment, we are offering various on-demand seminars related to automotive testing for free. ■ Seminar Examples Overview of ECE Regulation 10 (Basic Edition) Overview of EMC Evaluation for Automotive Equipment Evaluation of Automotive Components Installed in EV/HV according to CISPR 25:2016 Ed.4 Annex I Testing Methods for the National Standard of the People's Republic of China GB_T 36282 Immunity Testing for LV124 and High Voltage DC Power Supply Lines And many more... *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

In recent years, the electrification and electrification of automobiles, as well as the digitization of in-vehicle products, have been rapidly advancing. As a result, it has become urgent for each manufacturer to conduct conformity assessment tests based on necessary standards and obtain certification. Especially for in-vehicle products, it is necessary to comply with required international standards, regulations of various countries and regions, and the standard requirements from automobile manufacturers. This seminar will provide an overview of EMC evaluation, which is one of the essential requirements. *This PDF (presentation material) contains links to video viewing.*

As many automotive parts are now electronically controlled, the automotive industry has begun to emphasize the implementation of EMC tests that simulate actual usage environments from the perspective of quality assurance. The UN ECE Regulation has introduced the RVC method, which is closer to real-world conditions compared to the traditional ALSE method (Antenna Coupling Method). To quickly respond to changes in standards, UL Solutions is expanding its Automotive Technology Center and introducing a Reverberation Chamber (RVC). A Reverberation Chamber (RVC) is a shielded room that contains a metal stirrer (mixer). It is primarily composed of equipment that allows for changes in resonant frequencies due to the rotation of the shielded cavity and the electromagnetic wave stirrer. By rotating the electromagnetic wave stirrer in steps, various resonant modes can occur at certain frequencies, enabling the generation of a statistically uniform field within the chamber.

We will hold an online tour to introduce the Reverb Chamber (hereinafter referred to as RVC), which will start operation in October 2022. Even for customers who find it difficult to visit the site in person, you can view the expanded Automotive Technology Center online. In addition to the RVC, we will also introduce the EHV Chamber, which is equipped with a fixed dynamometer and a radio wave anechoic chamber. The automotive industry requires a quick response to changes in the environment and regulations surrounding vehicles. The RVC method, which is closer to real-world conditions compared to the ALSE method (Antenna Radiation Method), will be introduced under the UN ECE Regulation. The RVC can generate a uniform electric field in the anechoic chamber, allowing tests to simulate the electromagnetic environment of urban areas where vehicles are actually used. We hope you take this opportunity to view our new facility. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Medical device manufacturers need to demonstrate compliance with numerous regulations regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), wireless performance, radio frequency (RF) exposure, and other safety and performance requirements to ensure product safety and market entry. UL Solutions provides comprehensive support and guidance from design concept to product completion, helping to avoid potential issues and reduce time to market.
