CE Conformity
(1)
Conformity with the Low Voltage (LV) Directive and Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) Directive has been demonstrated using
harmonized European Norm (EN) standards published in the Official
Journal of the European Communities. PowerFlex Drives comply with
the EN standards listed below when installed according to the User
Manual.
CE Declarations of Conformity are available online at:
http://www.ab.com/certification/ce/docs.
Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC)
• EN61800-5-1:2007 Electronic equipment for use in power
installations
EMC Directive (2004/108/EC)
• EN61800-3:2004+A1:2012 Adjustable speed electrical power drive
systems Part 3: EMC product standard including specific test
methods.
General Notes
• If the plastic top panel is removed, or the encoder cover is not intact,
or the optional conduit box is not installed, the drive must be
installed in an enclosure with side openings less than 12.5 mm (0.5
in.) and top openings less than 1.0 mm (0.04 in.) to maintain
compliance with the LV Directive.
• The motor cable should be kept as short as possible in order to avoid
electromagnetic emission as well as capacitive currents.
• Use of line filters in ungrounded systems is not recommended.
• Conformity of the drive with CE EMC requirements does not
guarantee an entire machine installation complies with CE EMC
requirements. Many factors can influence total machine/installation
compliance.
• If the DriveGuard Safe-Off Option (Series B) is installed, use only
low voltage Class 2 circuits.
• When using the DriveGuard Safe-Off Option (Series B), the
installation must meet all the requirements listed in the DriveGuard
Safe-Off Option (Series B) User Manual, publication
PFLEX-UM003.
• In CE installations, input power must be a Balanced Wye with Center
Ground configuration.
