3.2.2 European Directives and Standards for the machine builder
Servo amplifiers are components that are intended to be incorporated into electrical plant and
machines for industrial use. When the servo amplifiers are built into machines or plant, the amplifier
must not be used until it has been established that the machine or equipment fulfills the require

EC Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC)
Standards to be applied for conformance with the EC Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)
EN 60204-1 (Safety and Electrical Equipment in Machines)
EN 12100 (Safety of Machines)
The manufacturer of the machine must generate a hazard analysis for the machine, and
must implement appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements cannot cause
injury or damage to any person or property.
The machine/plant manufacturer must check whether other standards or EC Directives must
be applied to the machine/plant.
Standards to be applied for conformance with the EC Low Voltage Directive(2006/95/EC)
EN 60204-1 (Safety and Electrical Equipment in Machines)
EN 60439-1 (Low Voltage Switchgear Combinations)
Standards to be applied for conformance with the EC EMC Directive (2004/108/EC)
EN 61000-6-1 / 2 (Interference Immunity in Residential & Industrial Areas)
EN 61000-6-3 / 4 (Interference Generation in Residential & Industrial Areas)
The manufacturer of the machine/plant is responsible for ensuring that it meets the limits required
by the EMC regulations. Advice on the correct installation for EMC (such as shielding, grounding,
treatment of connectors and cable layout) can be found in this documentation.
We only guarantee the conformance of the servo system with the standards cited in this chapter if
the components (motor, cables, chokes etc.) are those supplied by us.
