Ce Marking; Compliance With The European Low Voltage Directive; Compliance With The European Emc Directive; Compliance With The European Machinery Directive - ABB ACS800-04 Hardware Manual

CE marking

A CE mark is attached to the drive to verify that the unit follows the provisions of the
European Low Voltage and EMC Directives. The CE marking also verifies that the
drive, in regard to its safety functions (such as Safe torque off), conforms with the
Machinery Directive as a safety component.

Compliance with the European Low Voltage Directive


The compliance with the European Low Voltage Directive was verified according to
standards EN/IEC 60204-1 and EN 50178.

Compliance with the European EMC Directive


The EMC Directive defines the requirements for immunity and emissions of electrical
equipment used within the European Union. The EMC product standard
(EN 61800-3:2004) covers requirements stated for drives. See
EN 61800-3:2004
(page 125).

Compliance with the European Machinery Directive


The drive is an electronic product which is covered by the European Low Voltage
Directive. However, the drive can be equipped with the Safe torque off function and
other safety functions for machinery which, as safety components, are in the scope
of the Machinery Directive. These functions of the drive comply with European
harmonized standards such as EN 61800-5-2. The declaration of conformity for each
function is in the appropriate function-specific manual.

Compliance with EN 61800-3:2004

Definitions


EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility. It is the ability of
electrical/electronic equipment to operate without problems within an
electromagnetic environment. Likewise, the equipment must not disturb or interfere
with any other product or system within its locality.
First environment
which supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
Second environment
domestic premises.
