			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Since its open in January 2011, our new <a href="http://www.nwemc.com/northwest-emc-now-offers-sar-evaluations/">SAR Testing lab</a> in Hillsboro, Oregon has been bustling.  Being that NW EMC provides not only testing services but also <a href="http://www.nwemc.com/global-access/">certification and global approvals</a> our clients often ask us for consultative support.  Some of the common questions we are asked specifically around SAR testing include the basics, such as &#8220;How do I know if my product requires SAR Testing?&#8221;</p>
	<p>One reference that helps in answering this question is the FCC&#8217;s website.  The <a href="https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/kdb/reports/GuidedPublicationList.cfm">FCC&#8217;s website offer information on RF Exposure</a> and appropriate SAR Testing and Performance criteria.  </p>
	<p>In the European Union, RF exposure limits Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC.  Here is a link to the full recommendation. <a href=" http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:31999H0519:EN:HTML"> Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC</a></p>
	<p>Finally here is a complete reference article from CE-Mag.com, that discusses the specific differences between US and European guidelines for RF exposure and SAR testing.  <a href="http://www.ce-mag.com/archive/01/09/dillingham.html">Radio-Frequency Radiation for Transmitters: A Comparison of U.S. and European Requirements</a></p>
	<p>As always we encourage you to “<a href="http://www.nwemc.com/contact/">contact us</a>” for help in understanding testing requirements and ultimately getting your products to market.</p>
