" EMC Immunity
In order to document immunity against electrical interference from electrical phenomena, the following
immunity tests have been made on a system consisting of an adjustable frequency drive (with options, if
relevant), a shielded control cable, and a cont rol box with potentiometer, motor cable, a nd motor.
The tests were performed in accordance with the f ollow ing basic standards:
• EN 61000-4-2 (IEC 61000-4-2): Electrostatic discharges (ESD)
Simulation of electrostatic discharges from human beings.
• EN 61000-4-3 (IEC 61000-4- 3): Incoming electromagnetic field radiatio n, amplit ude modulated
Simulation of the effec ts of radar and radio communica tion equipment as well as mobile communications.
• EN 61000-4-4 (IEC 61000-4-4): Electrical interference
Simulation of interference brought about by switching with a contactor, relays, or simil ar de vices.
• EN 61000-4-5 (IEC 61000-4-5): Surge transients
Simulation of transients brought about, e.g., by lightning that strikes near installations.
• EN 61000-4-6 (IEC 61000-4-6): RF Common mode
Simulation of the effect from radio-transmitting equipment connected to connection cables.
