Aromatherapy Device FCC Certification

When entering the U.S. market, if an aromatherapy device has wireless communication functions (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) or requires FCC certification according to the relevant regulations of the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), it must undergo FCC certification.

FCC Certification Testing Standards

The FCC certification testing standards for aromatherapy devices mainly include electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and wireless device-related standards, specifically:

- FCC Part 15 (Wireless Devices):

- FCC Part 15.247: Applies to devices using the frequency band between 2400-2483.5 MHz, such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

- FCC Part 15.249: Applies to devices operating in the 902-928 MHz, 2400-2483.5 MHz, and 5725-5850 MHz frequency bands.

- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC):

- FCC Part 15 Subpart B: Sets the requirements for radiated and conducted interference for devices without wireless communication functions.

- ANSI C63.4: Describes the test methods for measuring radiated and conducted interference.

FCC Certification Application Process

- Submit Application Form:

The customer needs to submit an FCC certification application form, which should include the full name of the manufacturer and the applicant, as well as detailed contact information.

- Sign Contract:

The customer signs a contract with the testing and certification agency and pays the relevant fees.

- Prepare Samples and Documentation:

The customer must prepare testing samples and provide the following documentation:

- Electrical schematic diagrams

- External/internal photos

- Oscillator circuit block diagram

- User manual and label markings

- Operating principle description

- Product operating frequency table, listing the signal transmission paths and corresponding oscillation frequencies

- Other product features that need clarification

- Sample Testing:

The certification agency tests the sample to ensure it complies with the relevant FCC certification standards.

- Issuance of Report and Certificate:

After passing the tests, the certification agency issues a compliance certificate and test report. For FCC ID certification, the report and technical documents are submitted to an FCC-authorized agency for review, and an FCC ID certificate is issued.

- Use of FCC Mark:

Once FCC certification is obtained, the company can use the FCC mark and related statement on the product to indicate compliance with FCC regulations.

During the FCC certification process, it's essential to ensure the product meets the FCC's standards for electromagnetic compatibility, radiofrequency emissions, and more.

Wireless communication devices (such as aromatherapy devices with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) must obtain FCC certification to ensure market access and legal sales in the U.S.

The certification process may require multiple rounds of communication and modifications to ensure all documentation and information are accurate and complete.
