Under the smart home craze, smart toilets have entered more households with functions such as automatic sensing and wireless control. However, to sell products in the United States, a crucial step cannot be bypassed - FCC ID certification. This is also a point that many manufacturers tend to be confused about when they first enter the US market.
FCC ID certification is a mandatory certification for wireless products by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States. Its core purpose is to regulate the electromagnetic radiation and radio frequency performance of products, avoid interference with public communication frequency bands, and ensure the safety of consumer use. The reason why smart toilets need it is that their wireless control, sensor linkage and other functions rely on wireless transmission technology, which falls within the category of wireless products regulated by the FCC. Products that have not passed the certification are strictly prohibited from being sold in the US market.
The certification test is mainly based on the FCC Part 15 standard and covers multiple key items. For instance, in RF power testing, it is necessary to accurately measure the conducted power and radiated power of the product. Frequency range testing requires confirming that the signal is stable within the specified frequency band. There are also radiation tests, which measure the radiation intensity of the product in all directions and investigate stray radiation issues. All these tests must be conducted in a third-party laboratory recognized by the FCC.
For smart toilet manufacturers, FCC ID certification is not only a "key" to enter the US market, which can avoid risks such as goods being detained or fined, but also enhance consumers' trust in product quality. After all, products that have passed strict tests are more reliable in terms of anti-interference and safety, and can also help brands gain a firm foothold in the highly competitive US market.
