New Regulations on Flap Barrier Gate Opener Technology
Ministerial Decree of the Ministry of Communication and Digital No. 260 of 2024 sets technical standards that must be met by flap barrier gate opener devices to be used legally in Indonesia.
This regulation covers radio frequency requirements, maximum transmit power, and testing for wild emissions (spurious emissions).
The following are the standard specifications:
| Radio Frequency Band | RF output Power/Field Strength | Transmitter Spurious Emission | Testing Method |
| 16-150 KHz | ≤ 66 dBµA/m at 10 meters distance | EN 300 330 | EN 300 330 |

Flap Barrier Gate Opener Testing Standards
Ministerial Decree of the Ministry of Communication and Digital No. 260 of 2024 refers to international standards-based test methods such as FCC, EN, and ANSI. Here are some of the main testing methods:
- Transmit power testing (RF output power): Ensure the device does not exceed the maximum transmit power limit according to its frequency band.
- Spurious emission testing: Tests stray frequency emissions outside the working band to prevent interference with other devices.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Testing: Assesses the device’s compatibility with the surrounding electromagnetic environment to avoid interference.
Additional technical requirements
Apart from testing transmittance and emissions, the Ministerial Decree of the Ministry of Communication and Digital No. 260 of 2024 also regulates several other technical requirements, including:
- Electrical safety: The device must comply with the electrical safety standards set out in SNI IEC 60950-1:2016; SNI IEC 62368-1:2014; SNI 04-6253; IEC 62368-1; IEC 60950-1; IEC 60065; or relevant SNI or IEC standards, for SRD other than audio, video and information and communication technology (ICT).
- Non-Ionizing Radiation: Controls device radiation levels to keep them safe for users and the environment.
Flap Barrier Gate Opener Certification Process in Indonesia
For flap barrier gate opener devices to be used legally in Indonesia, certification from DJID is required. Here are the steps to get it:
Pre-testing the device
Before official testing, the device must be pre-tested first using measuring equipment such as a spectrum analyzer.
This helps ensure devices meet technical standards before being tested in authorized laboratories.
Testing at an official laboratory
After passing the pre-testing, the gadget will be sent to an assigned official research facility to experience testing according to the guidelines stipulated in the Ministerial Decree of the Ministry of Communication and Digital No. 260 of 2024.
Issuance of certificates
After the device passes testing, an official certificate will be issued by DJID. This certificate is a requirement to market the device legally in Indonesia.
Tips to ensure standards compliance
- Learn the latest regulations: Make sure you understand every detail of the Ministerial Decree of the Ministry of Communication and Digital No. 260 of 2024, including technical requirements and test methods.
- Perform pre-testing: Before official testing, perform pre-testing to ensure the device meets standards. If you don’t have a measuring instrument, use the DJID certification service which provides pre-testing services.
- Counsel a master: If this is your to begin with time looking for certification, consider utilizing the administrations of experienced DJID certification administrations.
