Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the ability of equipment or a system
to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without introducing
intolerable electromagnetic disturbances to anything in that environment.
Electromagnetic Compatibility, Definition: IEC 50(161)
EMC FIRST
This refers to the critical importance of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), which must be prioritized as a primary consideration before planning and implementing any system design at all levels.
For example, this applies at the macro level to smart city development, the military and defense sectors, hospitals, petrochemical industries, gas separation plants, gas pipelines, manufacturing plants, electric train stations, communication base stations, data centers, railway systems, and shopping centers. It also extends to the subsystem level and even down to individual product levels.
The Importance of EMC Across Various Sectors
Military and Defense Sector
EMC helps prevent electromagnetic interference that could potentially trigger the explosion of ammunition depots, reduces risks from electromagnetic waves, and enhances protection against threats from electronic warfare.
Petrochemical Industry
EMC ensures the stable operation of sensors and control systems, reducing the risk of accidents and explosions that could endanger the plant and the environment.
Medical Sector
EMC enables medical devices to operate with precision, extends the lifespan of medical equipment, and minimizes the risk of interference that could affect patient care, diagnosis, and treatment.
Telecommunications Sector
EMC ensures the stability of telecommunications networks by preventing signal interference, maintaining signal quality, and reducing communication disruptions that could impact safety and the economy.
Transportation and Railway Systems Sector
EMC enables train control and signaling systems to operate accurately, reduces the likelihood of errors, enhances transportation safety, and ensures smooth and efficient operations.
Manufacturing Industry
EMC ensures the stable operation of machinery, robots, and IoT systems in factories, minimizing electronic signal interference and enabling efficient and continuous manufacturing processes.
