Troubleshooting medical machine

AI Thread Summary
A systematic troubleshooting approach effectively resolved an issue in a high-tech manufacturing plant, as detailed in an article shared in the discussion. The root cause identified was voltage peak clipping or flat-topping, a problem prevalent in buildings not designed for today's non-linear electrical loads. This highlights the importance of understanding electrical system limitations in modern manufacturing environments. The article serves as a valuable resource for those facing similar challenges. Overall, it emphasizes the need for thorough analysis in troubleshooting medical machines and other high-tech equipment.

Here's an interesting article that describes how a systematic approach to troubleshooting solved a problem in a high tech manufacturing plant. The problem turned out to be voltage peak clipping or flat-topping which is common in building which were not designed to handle the non-linear loads that are so typical today. Hope you enjoy it as much as me!

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
