Conformance to EC Directives 6
• If the I/O Hold Bit is turned ON, the outputs from the PLC will not be
turned OFF and will maintain their previous status when the PLC is
switched from RUN or MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode. Make sure
that the external loads will not produce dangerous conditions when this
occurs. (When operation stops for a fatal error, including those produced
with the FALS(007) instruction, all outputs from Output Unit will be turned
OFF and only the internal output status will be maintained.)
6 Conformance to EC Directives
6-1 Applicable Directives
• EMC Directives
• Low Voltage Directive
6-2 Concepts
EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related
EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or the
overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to
EMC standards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the
standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by
the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Direc-
tives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of
the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed.
The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to confirm that devices
and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
Note The applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standard is EN61131-2.
Low Voltage Directive
Always ensure that devices operating at voltages of 50 to 1,000 V AC and 75
to 1,500 V DC meet the required safety standards for the PLC (EN61131-2).
6-3 Conformance to EC Directives
The CP1L-EL/EM PLCs comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the
machine or device in which the CP1L-EL/EM PLC is used complies with EC
Directives, the PLC must be installed as follows:
1,2,3... 1. The CP1L-EL/EM PLC must be installed within a control panel.
2. You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power
supplies used for I/O Units and CPU Units requiring DC power. The output
holding time must be 10 ms minimum for the DC power supply connected
to the power supply terminals on Units requiring DC power.
3. CP1L-EL/EM PLCs complying with EC Directives also conform to
EN61131-2. Radiated emission characteristics (10-m regulations) may
vary depending on the configuration of the control panel used, other devic-
es connected to the control panel, wiring, and other conditions. You must
therefore confirm that the overall machine or equipment complies with EC
Directives.
