Modern cooking appliance manufacturers continue to design more powerful, efficienl and innovative products, especially in response to consumers demanding more healthy, high-quality food yet at faster cooking times. In the modern kitchen, there is a multitude of different appliances used side by side, with little regard for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). To avoid unintended disturbances and malfunctions, each appliance must completely comply with the mandated EMC value limits - and this is where EMC filters enter the equation. EMC is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function acceptably in their electromagnetic environment. Several electronic devices running simultaneously may cause unwanted electromagnetic interference and even influence each other's functionality - particularly true in products with microprocessors. To counteract such effects, protection requirements regulated by law must be satisfied, and using EMC filters defends the electronic environment against such emissions. chaffner's EMC filters are routinely used in many different domestic appliances, whether a coffee machine, a food processor or a new appliance for cooking scrambled eggs, as recently developed by the innovative start-up Scraegg from Wiesloch and Heidelberg in southwestern Germany. With its unusual and very fast method of preparing a scrambled egg, just one year after development, Scraegg's device has sold very well, leading to a strong growth for the company, which has already expanded its production capacity and team.
