Installing and wiring in compliance
with EMC directive
Introduction
The EMC directive (89/336EEC and 92/31/EEC)
Stepping motors from ORIENTAL MOTOR are designed to be a built in component. The
EMC directive requires that the customer’s equipment incorporated with this product
should comply with the EMC directive.
The installation and wiring method for the motor and driver are the basic methods that
would effectively allow the customer’s equipment to be compliant with the EMC directive.
Final compliance of the equipment to the EMC directive varies according to the
configuration, wiring, layout, and level of hazard of other control systems and electrical
components used with the motor and driver.
This requires the customers to conduct the EMC measures of their equipment for
verification.
