Control
Laboratory use
Accessories intended for use with the above (such as sample handling equipment), intended to be used in industrial and non-industrial locations
BS EN 61326-1:2020 considers three types of electromagnetic environments:
Basic electromagnetic environment
Industrial electromagnetic environment
Controlled electromagnetic environment
NOTE: It’s generally considered that this product family standard takes precedence over the corresponding generic EMC standards.
