2.7 EMC-compliant installation for RASP5
The responsibility to comply with the legally stipulated limit values and thus
the provision of electromagnetic compatibility is the responsibility of the end
user or system operator. They must also take measures to minimize or
remove emitted interference in the environment concerned. He must also
utilize means to increase the interference immunity of the devices of the
system.
The technology and system of a RASP5 device cause high frequency leakage
current during operation. Therefore, all earthing elements must be low-impe-
dance elements connected in such a way as to establish an electrical contact
across a large surface area.
With leakage currents greater than 3.5 mA, in accordance with VDE 0160 or
EN 60335, either
• the cable cross-section of the protective conductor must be 10 mm
2
,
• the protective conductor must be open-circuit monitored, or
• the second protective conductor must be fitted.
For an EMC-compliant installation, we recommend the following measures:
• The unit must be installed in a conductive enclosure with a good connec-
tion to ground.
• Use screened motor cables (short cables).
￫
In a magnet system (PDS) with RASP5, you should take measu-
res for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) while doing your
engineering, since changes or improvements to the installation
site, which are required in the installation or while mounting, are
normally associated with additional higher costs as well.

Ground all conductive components and housings in a drive
system using as short a line as possible with the greatest
possible cross-section (Cu braid).
