EMC Directive

This product is tested to meet Council Directive 2004/108/EC Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) and the following standards, in whole or in part,
documented in a technical construction file:

• EN 61131-2; Programmable Controllers (Clause 8, Zone A & B)
• EN 61131-2; Programmable Controllers (Clause 11)
• EN 61000-6-4

EMC - Part 6-4: Generic Standards - Emission Standard for Industrial
Environments

• EN 61000-6-2

EMC - Part 6-2: Generic Standards - Immunity for Industrial
Environments

This product is intended for use in an industrial environment.

Low Voltage Directive

This product is tested to meet Council Directive 2006/95/ECLow Voltage, by
applying the safety requirements of EN 61131-2 Programmable Controllers, Part
2 - Equipment Requirements and Tests.

For specific information required by EN 61131-2, see the appropriate sections in
this publication, as well as the following Allen-Bradley publications:

Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Noise

Immunity, publication

1770-4.1.

Guidelines for Handling Lithium Batteries, publication AG-5.4
Automation Systems Catalog, publication B115

Installation Considerations

Most applications require installation in an industrial enclosure (Pollution
Degree 2

(1)

) to reduce the effects of electrical interference (Over Voltage

Category II

(2)

) and environmental exposure.

Locate your controller as far as possible from power lines, load lines, and other
sources of electrical noise such as hard-contact switches, relays, and AC motor
drives. For more information on proper grounding guidelines, see the

Industrial

Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines publication

1770-4.1.

(1) Pollution Degree 2 is an environment where normally only non-conductive pollution occurs except that

occasionally temporary conductivity caused by condensation shall be expected.

(2) Overvoltage Category II is the load level section of the electrical distribution system. At this level, transient

voltages are controlled and do not exceed the impulse voltage capability of the products insulation.
