and chemical pollutants.
Protect the encoder and motor against humidity and wet.

EC directives on product safety
Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)
Because of their small size, no serious threats to life or physical condition can normally be
expected from electric miniature drives. Therefore the Machinery Directive does not apply
to our products. The products described here are not “incomplete machines”. Therefore
installation instructions are not normally issued by FAULHABER.
Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU)
The Low Voltage Directive applies for all electrical equipment with a nominal voltage of 75
to 1500 V DC and 50 to 1000 V AC. The products described in this technical manual do not
fall within the scope of this directive, since they are intended for lower voltages.
EMC Directive (2014/30/EU)
The directive concerning electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) applies to all electrical and
electronic devices, installations and systems sold to an end user. In addition, CE marking can
be undertaken for built-in components according to the EMC Directive. Conformity with
the directive is documented in the Declaration of Conformity.
RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU)
The directive restricts the use of certain hazardous materials in electrical and electronic
devices. The products described in this technical manual fall within the scope of this direc-
tive. Conformity with the directive is documented in the EC Declaration of Conformity.
WEEE Directive (2012/19/EU)
The directive on the disposal of electrical and electronic devices prescribes the separate col-
lection of old electrical and electronic devices. The products described in this technical man-
ual fall within the scope of this directive.
