Recom LED drivers extensively certified

23 October 2013 Opto-Electronics

Recom has secured additional certifications for its RACD03, RACD06, RACD12, RACD20, RACT20 and RACV30 LED drivers to the internationally recognised IEC standards (CB report), RCM for Australia and New Zealand (ACMA) and the voluntary quality mark for Europe (ENEC).

The company says this became necessary since, while many customers accept the usual CE or UL8750 certificates, there are some regions that require additional compliance to their own domestic standards and regulations.

The CB reports cover the IEC 62384 performance requirements and IEC 61347-2-13 safety requirements for electronic control gear for LED modules. These two norms are the primary international standards for LED drivers.

The RCM (Regulatory Compliance Mark) shows compliance with the local standards in Australia and New Zealand. The consolidated compliance mark replaces the old C-Tick mark and demonstrates compliance to all applicable ACMA technical standards.

The ENEC mark (European Norms Electrical Certification) demonstrates compliance with the relevant European safety and performance standards (EN61347-1, EN61347-2-13 and EN62384).
