CW10 and SEAKER

Applicable EMC standards

Thales Air Systems

 Sensors overview

 VTIS systems is using 2 sensors :

 CW10 radar
 FURUNO radar : compliant with EMC naval standards
 Thales part : compliant with EMC EC standards

 SEAKER radar
 Compliant with EMC ground standards

 Naval standards are based on IEC 60 945

 EC standards are based on IEC 61 000

 Notes
 EC = European Community
 EC does not apply for naval applications

 IEC 61 000

 IEC 61 000 and EN 61 000 are the same (US or Europe)

 IEC 61 000 deals with EMC
 Emission and susceptibility standards
 Either in “light industrial environment” or “industrial environment”
 In “industrial”, equipment are more perturbating and so less sensitive
than “light industrial”
 In “light industrial”, equipment are less perturbating and so more
sensitive than “industrial”

Light industrial Industrial

Emission IEC-61000-6-3 IEC-61000-6-4

Susceptibility IEC-61000-6-1 IEC-61000-6-2

3 Thales Air Systems

 IEC 61 000

 CISPR 22 lists the recommendations of the International

Electrotechnical Commission, in Geneva, Switzerland
 EN 55022 is the standard created from the CISPR 22
 The identification is made through the reference number :
CISPRxx-x, will become EN 550xx-x when adopted as a European
Standard.

 EN 55022 is called by EN 61000-6-3 as “conducted and

radiated perturbation” standard
