Directives and standards
Servo amplifiers are components which are intended to be incorporated into electrical machines
and plant.
When the servo amplifiers are built into machines or plant, the intended operation is forbidden
until it has been shown that the machine or plant fulfills the requirements of the EC Directive on
Machines (89/392/EEC), the EC Directive on EMC (89/336/EEC) and the EC Low-Voltage
Directive (73/23/EEC). EN 60204 and EN 292 must also be observed.
In connection with the Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC, the harmonized standards of the
EN 50178 series are applied to the servo amplifiers, together with EN 60439-1, EN 60146 and
EN 60204.
The manufacturer of the plant or machine is responsible for ensuring that the plant or machine
meets the limits which are laid down in the EMC regulations. Advice on the correct installation for
EMC – such as shielding, grounding, filter arrangement, treatment of connectors and cable layout
– can be found in this documentation.
- Conformance
Conformance to the following directives is mandatory for the supply of servo amplifiers within the
European Community:
since 1 January 1996 : EC EMC Directive 89/336/EEC
since 1 January 1997 : EC Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC
The servo amplifiers have been tested in an authorised testing laboratory, in a defined
configuration with the components shown in Chapter II.
Any divergence from the assembly and installation described in the documentation means that
you will be responsible for the performance of new measurements to ensure that the regulatory
requirements are met.
