5. EMC DIRECTIVE
For the products sold in European countries, the conformance to the EMC Directive, which is one of the 
European Directives, has been a legal obligation since 1996. Also, conformance to the Low Voltage 
Directive, another European Directives, has been a legal obligation since 1997.
Manufacturers who recognize their products must conform to the EMC and Low Voltage Directives required 
to declare that their products conform to these Directives and put a "CE mark" on their products.
 Products that the EMC Directive applies to are marked with the CE mark logo.
5.1 Requirements for Conformance to EMC Directive
The EMC Directive specifies that products placed on the market must "be so constructed that they do not 
cause excessive electromagnetic interference (emissions) and are not unduly affected by electromagnetic 
interference (immunity)".
The applicable products are requested to meet these requirements.
The sections 5.1.1 through 5.3.2 summarize the precautions on conformance to the EMC Directive of the 
machinery constructed using the GOT.
The details of these precautions has been prepared based on the requirements and the applicable standards 
control. However, we will not assure that the overall machinery manufactured according to these details 
conforms to the above-mentioned directives. The method of conformance to the EMC Directive and the 
judgment on whether or not the machinery conforms to the EMC Directive must be determined finally by the 
manufacturer of the machinery.
5.1.1 Standards applicable to the EMC Directive
The following products have shown compliance through direct testing (to the identified standards) and 
design analysis (forming a technical construction file) to the European Directive for Electromagnetic 
Compatibility (89/336/EEC) when used as directed by the appropriate documentation
