Second environment (PDS of category C3)

The requirements of the EMC Directive can be met as follows:
1. The drive is equipped with EMC filter +E210. The filter is suitable for TN (earthed) and IT
(unearthed) networks.
2. The motor and control cables are selected as specified in the drive manuals.
3. The drive is installed according to the instructions given in the drive manuals.
4. Maximum cable length is 100 metres (328 ft).

Second environment (PDS of category C4)

If the above listed provisions cannot be met, the requirements of the EMC Directive can be met as
follows for restricted distribution:
1. It is ensured that no excessive emission is propagated to neighbouring low-voltage networks. In
some cases, the natural suppression in transformers and cables is sufficient. If in doubt, the supply
transformer with static screening between the primary and secondary windings can be used.
2. An EMC plan for preventing disturbances is drawn up for the installation. A template is available
from the local ABB representative.
3. The motor and control cables are selected as specified in the drive manuals.
4. The drive is installed according to the instructions given in the drive manuals.

Machinery Directive

The drive complies with the European Union Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC requirements for a partly
completed machinery. For more information, see the Declaration of Incorporation by ABB Drives at the
end of this manual.
