To ensure EMC-compliant electrical installation, observe
these general points:
•
Use only screened motor cables and screened
control cables.
•
Connect the screen to earth at both ends.
•
Avoid installation with twisted screen ends
(pigtails), since this ruins the screen effect at high
frequencies. Use the cable clamps provided
instead.
•
Ensure the same potential between frequency
converter and ground potential of PLC.
•
Use star washers and galvanically conductive
installation plates.
2.5.2 Emission Requirements
According to the EMC product standard for adjustable speed frequency converters EN/IEC 61800-3:2004 the EMC
requirements depend on the intended use of the frequency converter. The EMC product standard defines 4 categories,
defined - together with the requirements for mains supply voltage conducted emissions - in
.
Category
Definition according to EN/IEC 61800-3:2004
Conducted emission requirement
according to the limits given in EN
55011
C1
Frequency converters installed in the first environment (home and office) with
a supply voltage less than 1000 V.
Class B
C2
Frequency converters installed in the first environment (home and office) with
a supply voltage less than 1000 V, which are neither plug-in nor movable and
are intended to be installed and commissioned by a professional.
Class A Group 1
C3
Frequency converters installed in the second environment (industrial) with a
supply voltage lower than 1000 V.
Class A Group 2
C4
Frequency converters installed in the second environment with a supply
voltage equal to or above 1000 V or rated current equal to or above 400 A or
intended for use in complex systems.
No limit line.
An EMC plan should be made.
