EMC Installation Guidelines
The OEM6250 is sold as a complex component to professional assemblers. As a component,
it is not required to be compliant with Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC.
However, Appendix B provides guidelines on how to install the OEM6250 in a manner most
likely to minimize the OEM6250’s emissions and to maximize the OEM6250’s immunity to
externally generated electromagnetic interference.
