BS EN 50360:2017

What is BS EN 50360-Product standard for wireless communication devices frequency ranging from 300 MHz to 6 GHz about?

BS EN 50360 discusses the product standard to demonstrate the compliance of wireless communication devices. BS EN 50360 is a European standard that provides the product standard for wireless communication devices frequency ranging from 300 MHz to 6 GHz to ensure reducing risk to human health and the environment.

BS EN 50360 product standard applies to wireless communication devices used near the human ear (e.g., mobile phones, wireless headsets). The applicable frequency range is from 300 MHz to 6 GHz.

The objective of BS EN 50360 is to demonstrate the compliance of such devices with the basic

restrictions and exposure limit values related to human exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields.

Who is BS EN 50360-Product standard for wireless communication devices frequency ranging from 300 MHz to 6 GHz for?

BS EN 50360 on product standard for wireless communication devices frequency ranging from 300 MHz to 6 GHz is useful for:

• Wireless communication device manufacturers
• Wireless communication device test personnel
• Health and safety departments
• Quality assurance departments

Why should you use BS EN 50360-Product standard for wireless communication devices frequency ranging from 300 MHz to 6 GHz?

Exposure to extremely high RF intensities can result in the heating of biological tissue and an increase in body temperature. Tissue damage in humans could occur during exposure to high RF levels because of the body's inability to cope with or dissipate the excessive heat that could be generated.

BS EN 50360 provides you with exposure conditions, normative limits, evaluation of compliance, assessment uncertainty, documentation, assessment of compliance.

The product standard provided by BS EN 50360 ensures to improve the performance of wireless communication devices and ensure reducing the potential health risk of the electromagnetic field.

With compliance and obedience of BS EN 50360, you can enhance the efficacy of wireless communication devices and manufacture a standardized product.

What is changed since the last update?

BS EN 50360:2017 supersedes EN 50360:2001, which is withdrawn. BS EN 50360:2017 has made some technical changes compared to the previous edition EN 50360:2001. These include:

• The standard requires that the assessment must consider all foreseeable operating conditions
• The standard covers equipment intended for use only by workers as well as equipment intended for use by the public and different limits are given for each case
