3.1 Regulatory/Compliance Approvals
This section provides a brief description of the various approvals and certications that are on Danfoss VLT® drives. Not all approvals
are on all drives.
N O T I C E
IMPOSED LIMITATIONS ON THE OUTPUT FREQUENCY
From software version X.XX onwards, the output frequency of the drive is limited to 590 Hz due to export control regulations.
Software versions 6.xx also limit the maximum output frequency to 590 Hz, but these versions cannot be ashed, that is, neither
downgraded nor upgraded.
3.2 Typical Product Approvals and Certications for VLT® Drives
The VLT AQUA Drive product series complies with a wide scope of required standards and directives. Information on the specic
product certications can be found on the product nameplate.
3.2.1 CE Mark

Radio Equipment Directive
(3)
1
Machinery Directive conformance is only required for drives with an integrated safety function.
2
For China RoHS, contact Danfoss application support to get the certicate.
3
Radio Equipment Directive is only required for interfaces supporting wireless communication.
3.2.1.1 Low Voltage Directive
The aim of the Low Voltage Directive is to protect persons, domestic animals and property against dangers caused by the electrical
equipment, when operating electrical equipment that is installed and maintained correctly, in its intended application. The directive
applies to all electrical equipment in the 50–1000 V AC and the 75–1500 V DC voltage ranges.
3.2.1.2 EMC Directive
The purpose of the EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) Directive is to reduce electromagnetic interference and enhance immunity
of electrical equipment and installations. The basic protection requirement of the EMC Directive states that devices that generate
electromagnetic interference (EMI), or whose operation could be aected by EMI, must be designed to limit the generation of elec-
tromagnetic interference and shall have a suitable degree of immunity to EMI when properly installed, maintained, and used as
