Ce Marking; Compliance With The European Low Voltage Directive; Compliance With The European Emc Directive; Compliance With The European Machinery Directive - ABB ACS800 Series 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 has been verified
according to standards EN 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 section
with EN 61800-3:2004

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 includes establishments connected to a low-voltage network which
supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
Second environment includes establishments connected to a network not supplying
domestic premises.
Drive of category C2: drive of rated voltage less than 1000 V and intended to be
installed and commissioned only by a professional when used in the first
environment. Note: A professional is a person or organisation having necessary
skills in installing and/or commissioning power drive systems, including their EMC
aspects.
Drive of category C3: drive of rated voltage less than 1000 V and intended for use in
the second environment and not intended for use in the first environment.
