9.1 EMC
9.1.1 CE Mark
CE mark indicates compliance with European safety and environmental regulations. It is required
for engaging in business and commerce in Europe.
European standards include the Machinery Directive for machine manufacturers, the Low
Voltage Directive for electronics manufacturers, and EMC guidelines for controlling noise.
This drive is marked with CE mark based on the following EMC guidelines and the Low Voltage
Directive.
Machines and devices used in combination with this drive must also be CE certified and marked.
The integrator who integrates the drive with the CE mark in into other devices has the
responsibility of ensuring compliance with CE standards and verifying that conditions meet
European standards.
This drive has been tested according to IEC 61800-5-1: 2007, and it complies with the Low
Voltage Directive completely.
To enable machines and devices integrating this drive to comply with the Low Voltage Directive,
be sure to meet the following conditions:
Mounting Location
Mount the AC drive in places with pollution not higher than severity 2 and overvoltage category 3
in accordance with IEC60664.
To prevent accidents caused by short circuit, install fuse on the input side and the fuse must
comply with the UL standard.

The drive units must be installed in a fireproof cabinet with doors that provide effective electrical
and mechanical protection. The installation must conform to local and regional laws and
regulations, and to relevant IEC requirements.
Grounding
If using an AC drive of the 400 V class, tie the neutral point of the drive power supply to ground.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) describes the ability of electronic and electrical devices or
systems to work properly in the electromagnetic environment and not to generate
electromagnetic interference that influences other local devices or systems.
In other words, EMC includes two aspects: The electromagnetic interference generated by a
device or system must be restricted within a certain limit; the device or system must have
sufficient immunity to the electromagnetic interference in the environment.
The drive satisfies the European EMC directive 2004/108/EC and the standard EN 61800-3:
2004 +A1: 2012 Category C2. The AC drives are applied to both the first environment and the
second environment.
When applied in the first environment, the AC drive may generate radio
interference. Besides the CE compliance described in this chapter, take
measures to avoid the radio interference if required.
The integrator of the system installed with the AC drive is responsible for compliance of the
system with the European EMC directive and standard EN 61800-3: 2004 +A1: 2012
Category C2, C3 or C4 according to the system application environment.

Connect a dv/dt reactor on the output side to reduce large dv/dt, protecting the motor
winding from insulation breakdown, lowering motor temperature and extending the motor
service life and meanwhile reduce interference on surrounding devices.

Earth leakage current of AC drive is larger than 3.5 A, requiring grounding protection.
The AC drive produces DC leakage current inside protective conductor, thus a B-type (delay-
type) leakage breaker must be used.
Use a leakage breaker of higher rated action current or use a delay-type leakage breaker.
For selection of fuse and breaker, see 8.1 MCCB, Fuse and Contactor.
Three-conductor cable and four-conductor cable are shown in the following figure.
Cabling Requirements
Motor cable and PE shielded conducting wire (twisted shielded) should be as short as
possible to reduce electromagnetic radiation and external stray current and capacitive
current of the cable. If motor cable is over 100 meters long, an output filter or reactor
is required.
It is recommended that motor cables, power input cables and control cables be laid in
different ducts. To avoid electromagnetic interference caused by rapid change of
output voltage of AC drive, motor cables and other cables must not be laid side by
side for a long distance.
If control cable must run across power cable, make sure they are arranged at an angle of
close to 90°. Other cables must not run across AC drive.
Power input and output cables of AC drive and weak-current signal cables (such as
control cable) should be laid vertically (if possible) rather than in parallel.
Cable ducts must be in good connection and well grounded. Aluminium ducts can be
used to improve electric potential.
AC drive outputs high-speed pulse voltage, producing high-frequency leakage current during
running of the drive. Each AC drive produces more than 100 mA leakage current. Therefore, it is
necessary to select a residual current circuit-breaker with rated operating current of 100 mA
above.
AC drive generates DC leakage current in protective conductor. In this case, a time-delay B-type
breaker must be used. If multiple AC drives are required, each AC drive must be installed with a
circuit-breaker.
AC drive capacity
Carrier frequency
EMI filter
Recommended residual current circuit-breaker manufacturers are Chint Electric and Schneider.
AC drive generates very strong interference. Although EMC measures are taken, interference
may still exist due to improper cabling or grounding during use. When AC drive interferes with
other devices, adopt the following solutions.
The drive can be operated at above rated ambient temperature, altitude and default carrier frequency
by de-rating drive capacity.
When carrier frequency of the drive is increased above default setting, you need to de-rate rated
drive output current according to the following table:
Drive operation between -10°C to 40°C is normal without de-rating. Operation between 40°C and
50°C requires output current de-rating. Rated output current must be de-rated for 1.5% per 1°C
temperature rise. Permissible maximum temperature is 50°C.
Altitude De-rating
The drive must be de-rated for an installation altitude of above 1000 meters because cooling
effect available from ambient air reduces. Rated output current must be de-rated for 1% per 100
meters. Maximum altitude is 3000 meters.
