2.4 Application as directed
The controllers of the 8600 series are electrical equipment intended
for installation in control cabinets of high power plants.
The controllers are directed as components
• for the control of variable speed drives with three-phase AC
motors.
• for the installation in control cabinets or control boxes.
• for the assembly together with other components to form a
drive system.
• The controllers correspond to the Low-Voltage EMC directive.
• Drive systems with the 8600 controllers which are installed
according to the requirements of the CE-typical drive systems
correspond to the EC directive relating to EMC (see chapter
4.2.2).
The CE-typical drive with the 8600 controllers are suitable for
• the operation on public and non-public mains systems.
• the use in industrial areas as well and in residential and
commercial premises.
• Because of the earth-potential reference of the RFI filter, the
described CE-typical drive systems are not suitable for the
connection to IT mains (mains without earth-reference
potential).
• The controllers are not domestic appliances. They are intended
as drive-system components for commercial use.
• The controllers themselves are not machines for the purpose of
the EC directive relating to machinery.
