Paxton Test Facility rebranded to become Brighton EMC

BRIGHTON EMC is the new customer-facing brand for what was called The Paxton Test Facility. The established state-of-the-art test house provides UKAS-accredited EMC testing services to electronic product manufacturers.

Brett Glass, compliance manager at the Brighton EMC, explained: “Rebranding to Brighton EMC gives us greater visibility and recognition as an independent UKAS-accredited test facility that provides reliable EMC testing services for manufacturers. UKAS accreditation affords confidence to external customers when it comes to our commitment to quality and service improvement.”

UKAS accreditation affirms that the Brighton EMC meets the ISO 17025 standard for laboratory accreditation, with the added benefit of short lead-times.

Glass continued: “On occasion we have instant availability, and even during busy periods our waiting time is only up to four weeks, which is shorter than the national six-to-eight-week waiting list. We have experienced engineers at our facility to support customers and raise suggestions based on their test results.”

Planned product launch

Bramble Energy, a renewable energy innovator, recently tested its Hydrogen Fuel Cell Generator at Brighton EMC to prepare for a planned product launch.

Thomas Wines, senior engineer at Bramble Energy, observed: “The information and support given by the engineers from the Brighton EMC test facility was professional. The reports have been very helpful in gauging our status and planning further development work.”

Further, Wines commented: “The conversational testing process is the reason we chose to test our product there. We recommend the Brighton EMC.”

The Brighton EMC is located at Paxton’s Technology Centre in Brighton. In addition to EMC testing, there are environmental chambers for testing the impact of environmental factors on products. There is also equipment to carry out electrostatic discharge, surge, transients and power quality tests.
