High powered
RF frequency sources such as radio, TV and communications transmitters as well as ISM equipment,
are not only potentially a hazard to human health but are able to trigger or ignite explosive
substances.
For biological effects, the
emissions of these equipments are subject to limits specified by the WHO and published as an
Australia standard ARPANSA RPS 3:2002.
Conformances to the limits of this
standard are a minimum requirement for occupational Health and Safety (OH&S).
Separate
requirements and standards exist for the prevention of explosive hazards.
Although these
requirements appear to be less stringent, the circumstances under which these fields (and
associated voltages and currents) can occur are more varied and demanding, requiring detailed
analysis and ultimately confirmation by a range of different measurement
processes.
EMC Services is
fully equipped for, and extensively experienced in the performance of this work.
