EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related
EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or ma-
chines. The actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC stan-
dards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the standards in
the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Direc-
tives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the
equipment or control panel in which the OMRON devices are installed. The cus-
tomer must, therefore, perform final checks to confirm that devices and the over-
all machine conform to EMC standards.
Note Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:
EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN50082-2
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN50081-2
(Radiated emission: 10-m regulations)
Low Voltage Directive
Always ensure that devices operating at voltages of 50 to 1,000 VAC or 75 to
1,500 VDC meet the required safety standards for the PC (EN61131-2).
