EMC Considerations
Tritex actuators are designed not to create or be affected by electromagnetic interference in
most applications. Under extreme conditions there may be unwanted electromagnetic
interaction between the Tritex actuator and other equipment. It is the responsibility of the
installer to ensure that the complete system meets all relevant EMC (electromagnetic
compatibility) emission and immunity requirements.
Tritex Embedded drives are designed to be IEC/EN 61800-3:2004-08 compliant when using
shielded cables and the 37263 EFT/B and Surge Filter (see Accessories section). The external
filter may not be necessary if the power supply already contains EFT/B and Surge suppression.
The figure below shows how to connect the external filter if it is required.
General EMC guidelines that should be followed when installing and designing a system
include:
House all components in conductive enclosures
Connect components using shielded cables grounded to the component enclosures (see
figure on next page)
Ground components using the single point grounding scheme described in the
Grounding
section of this manual
When necessary, remove paint from mating surfaces that may prevent a good ground
connection from being made
Make ground connections as short as possible and use flat braided cable when available
to create low impedance ground connections
Keep cable runs as short as possible and power and signal cables as far apart as
possible, only crossing them at right angles, as described in the
Cable Routing
section of
this manual
