Les Dickenson - Sydney Manager
EMC Technologies Sydney Branch is managed by Les Dickenson.
Les has 16 years experience in the electronics industry and was formerly
the Product Compliance Manager of Scitec Limited where he was responsible
for Austel, BABT, UL, CSA and other Australian and international regulatory approvals.
He was also a member of the Austel WG2.1.
Les’ responsibilities include management of the NATA accredited test facilities at
Seven Hills and Colo, Safety, Telecomms and EMC design, test and consultancy services

‘Do It Yourself’ Precompliance Testing at NATA Test Site
We are pleased to provide another Australian first service to our customer base. Low Cost Precompliance
testing is now available at our NATA registered Open Area Test Site (OATS) for EMI measurements to all
Australian and International Standards.
Our new precompliance test facilities in Melbourne and Sydney provide a low cost “turn-key” EMI measurement
capability for private use by companies to check for EMI compliance prior to formal NATA testing.
The Colo site has low ambients (below the limit) which allows easy identification of emissions and cuts the time
of the test significantly. Facilities include remote controlled turntable, antenna mast and fully calibrated antennas
and spectrum analyser. The cost is lower for clients using their own spectrum analyser.
Facilities Expanded
- 4 OATS including the only compliant 30 metre site in Australia
- 4 EMI Receivers
- 7 Shielded enclosures
- 3 high-performance spectrum analysers
- Comprehensive fully automated emission tests - spectrum plots provided.
- Fully automated radiated immunity testing
- Fully automated conducted RF (IEC1000-4-6) testing.
- Fully automated MIL-STD-461/2 testing.
- Measurements from DC-40 GHZ.
Fully automated means fast, accurate repeatable results.
