What is PUWER?
The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations, often abbreviated to PUWER, place duties on people and companies who own, operate or have control over work equipment. PUWER also places responsibilities on companies whose employees use work equipment, whether owned by them or not. We show you that PUWER compliance doesn't have to be an impediment to your work.
We are different! What we give are practical solutions based on real world applications. Machinery Safety & Compliance Services consultants are engineers. We tell you what you need to do to put it right, and more importantly, what you don't need to do. What you need are safe and useable machines, not just a bunch of risk assessments. We never leave you without a solution.

MSCS Ltd has invested heavily in EMC test. In 2014 we opened our new Open Area Test Site or OATS. Our large scale OATS provides radiated emissions, radio and antenna measurements up to 10 meters. Due to our own 8 acre site, an obstacle free area is provided as required by the standards such as CISPR-16. Situated in the rural area of Northamptonshire, the OATS has low electromagnetic ambient noise, crucial for radiated emissions measurements.
European Conformity
To supply products on the market in the European Economic Area (EEA), CE Marking is mandatory. With the CE marking on a product the manufacturer ensures that the product conforms with the essential requirements of the applicable EC directives.
PUWER is the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations and requires users of work equipment to carry out regular risk assessments which are documented and kept on file. Most importantly, those risk assessments must address each of the Regulations under PUWER. The regulations require that all provided work equipment is suitable for its intended task and can be used without putting persons at risk.
Safety Circuit Validation
MSCS can carry out assessments of your control systems with reference to EN61508, EN62061, EN 954-1 and EN ISO 13849-1. Not only that, but our advisors are engineers who can help you design a compliant control system.

1. Assess where there may be a risk and to whom.
2. Quantify or measure the EM field.
3. Sign off or solve the issue.
