EMC DIRECTIVE AND LOW-VOLTAGE INSTRUCTION
9.1
Requirements for Compliance to EMC Directive (89/336/EEC)
The EMC Directive (89/336/EEC) will become mandatory within Europe from
January 1st 1996. The EMC directive in essence defines the amount of
electromagnetic output a product is allowed to produce and how susceptible that
product is to electromagnetic interference. Any manufacturer or importer of
electrical/electronic apparatus must before releasing or selling products within
Europe after that date have either a CE mark attached to their goods. Testing to
comply with the directive is done by use of agreed European standards which
define limits for radiated and mains conducted electromagnetic emissions from
equipment, levels of immunity to radiated emissions, ability for equipment to cope
with transient voltage surges and electro-static discharges.
When installed in the specified manner this unit will be compliant with the relevant
standards EN50081-2 and prEN50082-2 as applicable in the EMC directive. Failure
to comply with these instructions could lead to impaired EMC performance of the
equipment and as such Mitsubishi Electric Corporation can accept no liability for
such actions.
9.1.1
EMC standards
When the PLC is installed following the directions given in this manual its EMC
performance is compliant to the following standards and levels as required by the
EMC directive.

be installed in a conductive control box.
The tests for the corresponding items were performed while the PLC was
installed to inside the control box.
