The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, ICNIRP, has revised its recommendation for limit values in connection with human safety in electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields that was published in 1998.
The revision, entitled RF EMF GUIDELINES 2020, was published in March. In particular, the mid-frequency range, i.e. frequencies in the kHz range are affected by the revision. These guidelines will now go through the process of incorporation into national laws.
Regardless of this, with Narda, you are always on the safe side. That’s because Narda has already implemented these new limit values. For example, the Personal Monitor RadMan 2 is ICNIRP 2020 compliant, and alarms are set as percentages of the ICNIRP 2020 limit values.
The new limit value curves for the selective Handheld Meter SRM-3006 are available for download from their homepage. They ensure that the SRM can display signals and services directly as percentages of the limit value without the need for tiresome conversions.
And, for the product most affected by these changes, the reference for measurements in the mid-frequency range, the EHP-200A, we have Version 2.04 of the EHP-TS software available for Download. This software allows you to evaluate measurement results according to ICNIRP 2020.
Narda always keeps you ahead of your national legislation!
