<span lang="EN-US">This paper investigates the effect of two different heating power control systems of infant incubators on their conducted emissions. Two infant incubators which respectively employ zero-crossing control mode and phase angle control mode are observed. The research was conducted by measuring conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI) from each infant incubator's power input. Measurements are conducted both during full power condition, while the incubator's compartment temperature is far away from the temperature setpoint, and during power chopping condition, while the compartment temperature reaches the steady-state set point. Method and limit of the measurement refer to CISPR 11. It is found that conducted emission higher than the standard CISPR 11 limit occurs during power chopping on phase angle control mode. This results from the sharp rise time of voltage delivered to the heater, around 220 ns for each chopping cycle.</span>
Initial measurement showed that reading LED lighting used in this experiment produced excessive conducted emissions (CE). EMC filter is needed to suppress the CE noise. The LED light is AC powered through a two-wire cable without ground wire, whereas the EMC filter does have ground. Experiments were conducted to find out the attenuation effect of different filter's grounding connection methods. Four cases of grounding connections are measured and compared, i.e. unconnected ground, earth-connected ground, chassis-connected ground, and additional ground plate. Measurements showed that chassis-connected ground had the strongest attenuation effect. Also, for the additional ground plate configuration, it turned out that larger plates exhibited stronger attenuation compared to smaller plates.
LED lighting market share shows an ever increasing trend. This is driven by some of the LED advantages, such as higher efficiency, wide range of colors, and longer lifetime. LED is a DC device, and to power it from AC supply, like in household or street lightings, a driver is required to convert AC to DC supply. In addition, LED driver is preferred to operate in constant current mode in order to avoid LED thermal runaway. Also the driver has to have high efficiency, low THD (total harmonic distortion), and comply with electromagnetic emission limits. In this paper, a prototype of primary-side-regulated AC-DC flyback LED driver has been implemented. It has a constant output current of 0.990A 0.012A across the output voltage 15.59V – 42.80V. Measurement results show that the achieved efficiency is up to 88.55%, current harmonics comply with IEC 61000-3-2, and conducted emission levels comply with CISPR 15.
The measurement and analysis of electromagnetic interference (EMI) from light rapid transit (LRT) axle counters against magnetic field interference in Indonesia has been carried out. The low-cost magnetic sensors were developed according to the British Standard (BS) EN 50592:2016. The measurement setup and magnetic field limit were based on the British Standard EN 50592:2016 and ERA/ERTMS/033281 standard. Two frequency range of the measurements, lower and higher frequencies with two different train running mode, acceleration mode and deceleration mode were applied in this research. The results in lower frequency range (10 to 100 kHz) were very close to the limit value in both acceleration and deceleration mode, especially at the 30 to 50 kHz for the y and z directions. Although there may possibly magnetic interference at low frequencies, most of the magnetic field emissions were still in acceptable range.
