The PMM Narda RF300 large loop antenna has been developed to meet the requirements of EN55015: 2006 + A2: 2009, section 9.9.1, which refers to CISPR16-1-4: 2007 + A1: 2008 section 4.6.1.
This specifies the limits for magnetic field induced current for luminaires with lamp operating frequencies in excess of 100Hz.
Construction of the RF300 is as detailed in annex C of EN55016.
This antenna is fully compliant with the standard and details of the calibration factors are included in this manual.
These antenna factors should be added to the results to obtain correct measurements that can be compared directly with the limits.
Test setup and limits should be conducted as required by EN55015, section 4.4.
The design of the RF300 is such that it can be readily erected and provide a rigid and stable configuration for accurate and repeatable measurements.
A calibration loop (RF300C) is available as an option if on-site calibration is deemed necessary. The RF300C allows the calibration loop to be used on all three axes and rotated within each as required by the standards.
