Standard Overview Products Used in Testing Related Compliance Standards

Standard Overview
ISO 14982 specifies test methods and acceptance criteria for evaluating the electromagnetic compatibility of tractors and other mobile agricultural machinery, forest machinery, landscaping, and gardening machinery as supplied by the machine manufacturer. It applies to machines and electrical/electronic sub-assemblies (ESA's) which are manufactured after the date of publication of this International Standard.

Electrical components or subassemblies intended for fitting in machines are also within the scope of this standard, except regarding immunity for those parts whose functions are not involved in the direct control and modification of the state of the functions of the machine.

For the purposes of ISO 14982, the following definitions apply (selected definitions follow)

Electromagnetic compatibility is defined as the ability of a machine or components or a separate technical unit to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without introducing intolerable electromagnetic disturbances to anything in that environment.
 
Electromagnetic disturbance: any electromagnetic phenomenon which may degrade the performance of a machine or component or separate technical unity.

Electromagnetic immunity: the ability of a machine or component or separate technical unit to perform in the presence of specified electromagnetic disturbances without degradation of performance.

Electromagnetic environment: the totality of electromagnetic phenomena existing at a given location.

The requirements of ISO 14982 shall be met by a machine operating in accordance with its final purpose. According to the choice of the machine manufacturer, the following alternatives are possible to demonstrate conformity with this International Standard.
 

  1. The requirements of this International Standard are deemed to be fulfilled for a complete machine when the requirements identified in clauses 5 and 6, as applicable, are fulfilled. If the machine manufacturer has chosen this alternative, no routine tests of the electrical systems or ESA's are required.

  2. The requirement of the International Standard is also deemed to be fulfilled if it is confirmed by the machine manufacturer that all electrical/electronic system of ESA's are in accordance with this International Standard and have been installed in conformance with the recommended requirements of the ESA.

  3. The requirements of this International Standard are also deemed to be fulfilled when the machine has no such equipment for which an immunity or interference test is required. In this case, no test is necessary.

No disturbances shall occur during testing which may affect the driver's direct control of the machine. The driver's direct control of the machine is exercised using steering, braking, the ground speed, or engine speed control. This also concerns the movements of parts of the machines and modifications of the state of function which may generate hazards or mislead others.

The electromagnetic emissions shall be measured using the method described in annex B at either of the defined antenna distances. The choice is left to the user according to the ISO 14982.

ISO 7196:1995 Acoustics — Frequency-weighting characteristic for infrasound measurements
Methods have already been standardized for the description and assessment of noise from various sources and with respect to various effects on human subjects (risk of hearing damage, annoyance reactions, loudness, perceived noisiness, interference with speech communication). In all these cases, the bandwidth of the noise is either considered to lie within the conventional audio frequency limits from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz or within a specified narrower band (for example, 45 Hz to 11,200 Hz in the case of perceived noisiness of aircraft). The band limits of 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz also define the frequency range for which the characteristics of sound level meters are fully specified (see IEC 651). In practice, some noises consist of, or contain components at, frequencies below 20 Hz. At present, there are no standardized methods for sound pressure measurements of these noises, nor for their description and assessment with respect to human response. Although research in this field is comparatively sparse, there is evidence of infrasonic effects which are potentially harmful or unpleasant to human subjects and some authorities may desire to extend their regulations or codes of practice governing noise emissions to cover sources of infrasound. For this reason, it is considered to be highly desirable to standardize measurement and description methods in order to facilitate the exchange of information and to avoid proliferation of incompatible procedures. Many types of human response can be distinguished and, correspondingly, different description methods are, in principle, appropriate. The method described in this International Standard corresponds to the direct perception of infrasound. At present, this is the only human response for which there is an ample research base. Some literature on annoyance from infrasound suggests that annoyance may be closely related to the direct perception. On that precondition, levels measured according to this International Standard would
ISO 7637: Road Vehicles – Electrical Disturbances from Conduction and Coupling
ISO 7637 is an automotive EMC test standard that outlines testing requirements for simulating electrical transients in road vehicles with 12V or 24 V electrical systems. ATEC carries EMC test equipment designed to meet the test specifications of ISO 7637-2, the latest version of the standard. Read on for more information about ISO 7637, applicable test pulses, and recommended ISO 7637 test equipment. What is ISO 7637? ISO 7637 defines test parameters for the EMC testing of road vehicles, specifically the simulation of electrical disturbances, or transients, in vehicle power supply lines. The standard, which covers both susceptibility and emissions testing, defines proper waveforms for test pulses and lists necessary electrical components. ISO 7637 also offers performance classifications for test pulses based on their frequency, strength, and burst cycle; ratings vary between pulses, and for the 12V or 24V electrical systems of commercial vehicles. Automotive manufacturers across the world rely on ISO 7637 to ensure the electromagnetic compatibility of their electrical systems; it is a common requirement for vehicle component development. Discovering a vulnerability to transients early on in automotive design is essential, as failures during formal EMC testing waste companies’ time and money. ISO 7637 is designed to protect car electronics that are vulnerable to surges from automotive power supplies. Since the advent of EMC testing, manufacturers have developed their own EMC standards in response to the myriad of electrical disturbances to which road vehicles fall victim. ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, developed ISO 7637 as a universal standard that covers as many varieties of automotive transients as possible.   ISO 7637 Subsections ISO 7637 is composed of five parts: ISO 7637-1 Definitions and general considerations ISO 7637-2 Electrical transient conduction along supply lines
ISO 7637-2: Electrical Transient Conduction Along Supply Lines Only
The purpose of ISO 7637-2 is to ensure electromagnetic compatibility of passenger and commercial vehicles operating on 12V or 24V electrical systems. ISO 7637-2 requires multiple conducted transients to be coupled onto DC lines to test the compatibility of vehicles. This standard is applicable to both internal combustion engine and electric motor vehicles.   Equipment Required: Transient Generator - HILO CAR TEST 14 Oscilloscope - Tektronix MDO4104C Differential Probe - Probe Master 4234 ISO 7637-2 Test Pulses The following tables show data that highlights Pulse 1, Pulse 2a, Pulse 2b, Pulse 3a, and Pulse 3b. Pulse 1 ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1 is used to simulate the transients created in the case that a motor, or inductive load, is disconnected from the circuit.    Parameters of this pulse can be verified using an oscilloscope and differential probe to meet the specifications below. Pulse 2a ISO 7637-2 Pulse 2a is used to simulate transients that occur when there is a current interruption on a device in parallel with the DUT and caused by the wiring harness inductance. Pulse 2b ISO 7637-2 Pulse 2b is used to simulate transients when a vehicle is turned off, but electric DC motors remain active and serve as a generator. Pulse 3a The pulse 3a is similar to an EFT pulse as seen in IEC 61000-4-4 (HYPERLINK THIS), this transient waveform is simulating switching occuring in a system connected by a wiring harness, in which the load is capacitive or inductive. Pulse 3b Similar to pulse 3a, except opposite polarity. Pulse 3b is another EFT waveform representing switching within a wire harness. These pulses also simulate the scenario in which a fuse is blown.   Pulse 4, 5a, & 5b ISO 7637 Pulse 4, Pulse 5a/5b were removed from the most recent revision of ISO 7637-2 and can be found now in ISO 16750-2.   ISO 7637-2 Test Equipment ATEC recommends the following products for testing
ISO 10605: Road Vehicles—Test Methods for Electrical Disturbances from Electrostatic Discharge
ISO 10605 covers testing procedures involving electrostatic discharge within road vehicles. ISO 10605  ISO 10605 is accredited by the Technical Committee ISO/TC 22 and Subcommittee SC 3. This test methods needed for electrical disturbances, which is caused by electrostatic discharge, are specified with ISO 10605 requirements. For example, charge build-ups made from movement inside a vehicle or during exiting can result in electrostatic discharge. ESD Tests  Tests that simulate an electrostatic discharge (ESD) into a vehicle electrical system are based on the human ESD model. Sensitive electrical devices can be adversely affected by energy either coupled or radiated from electrostatic discharges. This International Standard describes ESD tests that apply to both automotive electronic modules and vehicles.    ESD Waveforms for ISO 10605  There a four different discharge networks used to accomplish each waveform as required by ISO 10605. The different Resistance and Capacitance values affect the discharge output timing typically measured at 30 and 60ns. When changing networks, the decay time of the waveform changes and results are measured as listed in the table above.   Waveform 1 is the ESD discharge using a 330 pF/330 Ω network Waveform 2 is the ESD discharge using a 150 pF/330 Ω network Waveform 1 here is using a 330 pF/2000 Ω discharge network Waveform 2 here is using a 150 pF/2000Ω discharge network Starting Profile Waveform of ISO 10605-2 The starting profile waveform is created from from a Load Dump Simulator and a DC Source to simulate an automotive system during start up. This is traditionally seen in Internal Combustion Engine (ICE's) vehicles where cranking occurs upon startup.
