EMC tests

Ensuring electromagnetic compatibility

Safety and operational reliability have top priority in rail operations. Electromagnetic interference must never trigger false signals or lead to the failure of critical systems such as brakes. At the same time, modern rail systems are becoming increasingly complex and electronic. As a result, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is becoming increasingly important - and with it the need for testing services.

EMC tests ensure that electrical and electronic systems work without interference both in the vehicle (e.g. locomotive, wagon) and with the infrastructure (e.g. level crossing system, railway radio, signalling). This ensures that no unauthorized electromagnetic interference occurs and that the systems are protected from external influences.

We offer the following EMC testing services through our subsidiary EMC Rail Services, which we founded together with Ingenieurbüro Rörden:

  • Radiated electromagnetic disturbances
  • Radio protection
  • Human exposure
  • Compatibility with track circuits
  • Compatibility with axle counters / sensors
