Certification and Standard Requirements
‑95‑
● The CE mark is required for engaging in commercial business (production,
importation, and distribution) in Europe.
● The drive complies with LVD, EMC, and RoHS directives and carries the CE mark.
● Machines and devices integrated with this drive must also comply with CE
requirements for distribution in Europe.
● The integrator who integrates this drive into other products and attaches CE mark
to the final assembly has the responsibility of ensuring compliance with CE
certification.
5.1.1 Requirements for Compliance with EMC
The drive is applicable to the first environment and second environment and
complies with EMC directive 2014/30/EU and standard EN 61800‑3.
As required by EMC Directive 2014/30/EU and standard EN IEC 61800‑3, install an EMC
filter on the input side of the drive and use shielded cables on the output side. Ensure
the filter is grounded properly and the shield of the output cable is grounded 360
degrees.
● When applied in the first environment, the drive may generate radio interference.
In addition to the CE compliance requirements described in this chapter, take
additional measures, if necessary, to prevent the radio interference generated by
the drive.
Introduction to EMC standards
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) describes the ability of electrical and electronic
devices or systems to work properly in the electromagnetic environment without
introducing electromagnetic interferences that disturb the operation of other local
devices or systems. In other words, EMC includes two aspects: 1) The electromagnetic
interference generated by a device during normal operation cannot exceed a certain
limit. 2) The device must have sufficient immunity to the electromagnetic interference
in the environment.
EN 61800‑3 defines the following two types of environments.
● First environment: Environment that includes domestic premises, and
establishments directly connected without intermediate transformers to a low‑
voltage power supply network which supplies buildings used for domestic
purposes
