Immunity to
Electrical
Transients
Considerations
The D20 and D200 products have been designed and hardened to operate in the
industrial and harsh environment of electrical substations.
Immunity to electrical transients was tested on representative samples according to
the following standards:
EMC Standards
EN61000-4-2 EN61000-4-5 EN61000-4-10 EN61000-4-16
EN61000-4-3 EN61000-4-6 EN61000-4-11 EN61000-4-17
EN61000-4-4 EN61000-4-8 EN61000-4-12 EN61000-4-29
Proper installation and wiring practices must be observed to achieve designed
protection levels for immunity to electrical transients defined by the individual
standards. Refer to the product installation guide.
Low Voltage
Directive
Considerations
To meet essential safety requirements of the LV Directive 2006/95/EC, selected D20
and D200 products must be installed in a secondary cabinet if an operating voltage
on any of the terminals is equal to or higher than 50 VAC or 75 VDC. Proper wiring
practices and applicable local safety standards defining protection against electrical
shock must be observed at all times.
Term Description
CE mark A mark affixed to a finished product signifying its compliance with relevant European Union (EU)
directives.
Direct function Defined as any function of a component or a finished product that fulfils the intended use specified by
the manufacturer in the instructions for use for an end user. This function can be available without
further adjustment or connections, other than simple ones that can be performed by any person not
fully aware of the EMC implications.
DoC (Declaration of
Conformity)
The Declaration of Conformity states which CE mark directive(s) has been met and includes a
signature of a company official indicating the company's responsibility for its CE mark compliance
claim.
EMC Directive Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (2004/108/EC)
Finished appliance A finished appliance is any device or unit that delivers a function and has its own enclosure. A finished
appliance is considered as apparatus in the sense of the EMC Directive, if it is intended for the end-user
and thus has to fulfill all the applicable provisions of the Directive. When the finished appliance is
intended exclusively for an industrial assembly operation for incorporation into other apparatus, it is
not apparatus in the sense of the EMC Directive and consequently the EMC Directive does not apply.
Fixed installation A combination of several equipment, systems, finished products and/or components assembled and/or
erected by an assembler/installer at a given place to operate together in an expected environment to
perform a specific task, but not intended to be placed on the market as a single functional or
commercial unit (e.g., entire substation).
LV Directive Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC)
System or installation A combination of several equipment, finished products, and/or components combined, designed and/or
put together by the same person (system manufacturer) intended to be placed on the market for
distribution as a single functional unit for an end user and intended to be installed and operated
together to perform a specific task.
