Directives and standards
Servo amplifiers are components which are intended to be incorporated into electrical machines
and plant.
When the servo amplifiers are incorporated into machines or plant, the intended operation of
the amplfiers is forbidden until it has been established that the machine or plant fulfills the
requirements of the EC Directive on Machines 89/392/EEC and the EC Directive on EMC
89/336/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 machine or plant is responsible for ensuring that the machine or plant
meets the limits which are laid down by the EMC regulations. Advice on the correct installation
for EMC – such as shielding, grounding, arrangement of filters, treatment of connectors and laying
out the cabling – is included in this documentation.
-conformance
Conformance with the EC Directive on EMC 89/336/EEC is mandatory for the supply of servo
amplifiers within the European Community from the 1st. of January 1996.
The servo amplifiers of the digifas™ 7200 series have been tested in an authorized laboratory in a
specified configuration with the system components described in Chapter VI.2.
Any divergence from the configuration and installation which is described in the documentation
means that you will be responsible for the performance of new measurements to ensure that the
regulatory requirements are met.
Only if the components as described in Chapter VI.2 are used and the rules for installation
in this documentation (Chapter II.1 ff) are followed do we guarantee the conformance of
the servo amplifiers with the following standards for industrial areas:
EC EMC Directive 89/336/EEC
EC Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC)
