C.1 Outline
This section provides general information regarding
recommended methods of installation for CE compliance.
It is not intended as an exhaustive guide to good practice
and wiring techniques. It is assumed that the installer of the
NextMove e100 is sufficiently qualified to perform the task,
and is aware of local regulations and requirements. A CE
mark is attached to the NextMove e100 to verify that the
unit follows the provisions of the European, EMC, and
machinery directives.A duly signed CE declaration of
conformity is available from ABB.
C.1.1 CE marking
The CE marking indicates a product’s compliance with EU legislation and so enables the free
movement of products within the European market. By affixing the CE marking to a product,
a manufacturer declares, on his sole responsibility, that the product meets all the legal
requirements for the CE marking, which means that the product can be sold throughout the
European Economic Area.
However, not all products must bear the CE marking, only product categories mentioned in
specific EU directives on the CE marking. The purpose of the directives is to state a
minimum technical requirement common to all the member states within the European
Union. In turn, these minimum technical requirements are intended to enhance the levels of
safety both directly and indirectly.
C.1.2 Compliance with the EMC Directive
EU directive 2004/108/EC relating to Electro Magnetic Compliance (EMC) indicates that it is
the responsibility of the system integrator to ensure that the entire system complies with all
protection requirements at the time of installing into service.
Motors and controls are used as components of a system, per the EMC directive. Hence all
components, installation of the components, interconnection between components, and
shielding and grounding of the system as a whole determines EMC compliance.
NextMove e100 EMC compliance
When installed as directed in this manual, NextMove e100 units meet the emission and
immunity limits for an “industrial” environment, as defined by the EMC directives
(EN 61000-6-4 and EN 61000-6-2). To meet the more stringent emission limits of the
‘residential, commercial and light industrial’ environment (EN61000-6-3), the NextMove e100
must be mounted in a suitable metal cabinet incorporating 360° screened cable glands.
