⚡ EMC Testing: Ensuring Product Compliance and Reliability

Nov 5, 2025

How do we remain EMC compliant through EMC testing

At D.G. Controls Ltd, we recognise the critical importance of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing in ensuring our products meet both legal and performance standards. But what is the significance of EMC testing?

What is EMC testing?

EMC testing assesses how and electronic product interacts with its electromagnetic environment; it ensures two critical outcomes

  1. The product does not emit excessive electromagnetic interference (EMI) that could disrupt other equipment.
  2. The product can continue operating reliably even when exposed to external electromagnetic disturbances.

Compliance with EMC regulations is not optional – it is a legal requirement for market entry in the UK, and international market. Because non-compliance can harm product reputation and compromise safety in use, we make certain every product meets standards from the outset.

Our in-house EMC facility

Since 2008, we have invested heavily in our dedicated in-house EMC testing facility tailored to our product range. This includes a fully equipped optical laboratory and test environments optimised for visual and audible signalling devices, ensuring efficient and accurate testing capabilities.

By controlling the testing process internally, we can:

  • Accelerate product development with immediate feedback and adjustments
  • Guarantee compliance before third-party certification
  • Maintain the highest reliability standards expected from our industry-leading beacons and sounders

Setting the standard

Our investment means we are not only meeting current EMC requirements – we’re anticipating future ones. This proactive approach positions us as a leader in EMC testing, ensuring our customers receive solutions that fit flawlessly in any environment or application.
