NOTICE!
Adjustable frequency drives with the MCB 112 option
have PTB-certied motor thermistor sensor monitoring
capability for potentially explosive atmospheres.
Shielded motor cables are not necessary when
adjustable frequency drives are operated with sine-wave
output lters.

Cabinet Options and Ratings
Danfoss adjustable frequency drives are available with
three dierent protection ratings:
•
IP00 or IP20 for cabinet installation.
•
IP54 or IP55 for local mounting.
•
IP66 for critical ambient conditions such as
extremely high (air) humidity or high concen-
trations of dust or aggressive gases.
3.1.9 Radio Frequency Interference
The main objective in practice is to obtain systems that
operate stably without radio frequency interference
between components. To achieve a high level of immunity,
it is recommended to use adjustable frequency drives with
high-quality RFI lters.
Use Category C1 lters specied in the EN 61800-3 which
conform to the Class B limits of the general standard EN
55011.
Place warning notices on the adjustable frequency drive if
RFI lters do not correspond to Category C1 (Category C2
or lower). The responsibility for proper labeling rests with
the operator.
In practice, there are two approaches to RFI
lters:
•
Built into the equipment
-
Built-in lters take up space in the
cabinet but eliminate additional costs
for tting, wiring, and material. However,
the most important advantage is the
perfect EMC conformance and cabling
of integrated lters.
•
External options
-
Optional external RFI lters that are
installed on the input of the adjustable
frequency drive cause a voltage drop. In
practice, this means that the full AC line
voltage is not present at the adjustable
frequency drive input and a higher-rated
drive may be necessary. The maximum
length of the motor cable for
compliance with EMC limits ranges from
1–50 m (3.3–164 ft). Costs are incurred
for material, cabling, and assembly. EMC
conformance is not tested.
