CE Conformity

This unit is a component intended for implementation in machines or systems for the
industrial environment. It is CE marked for conformity to the Low Voltage (LV)
Directive 73/23/EEC when installed as described. It also has been tested to meet the
Council Directive 89/336 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). The standards used
for this testing are LV: EN50178, EN60204-1, EMC: EN61800-3, EN50081-1,
EN50082-2.

Important: The conformity of the drive and filter to any standard does not guarantee

that the entire installation will conform. Many other factors can influence
the total installation and only direct measurements can verify total
conformity. It is therefore the responsibility of the machine manufacturer
to ensure that the conformity is met.

Copies of the Declaration of Conformity (DOC) may be obtained by contacting the
Rockwell AutoFax service at 440-646-7777.

F.1

Essential Requirements for a Conforming EMC
Installation

Grounding of equipment and cable shields must be solid, with low impedance
connections.

All control and signal wiring must use shielded cable or be in grounded metal
conduit.

F.2
