Appendix C – Regulatory Compliance: UL and CE
87
EMC – Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive – 89/336/EEC
In order to meet the requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
89/336/EEC, the entire system must comply: motor, drive, cabling, and peripher-
als. The installation of the product must include the following items.
EMC Cabling
For electromagnetic compatibility, you must use Parker Compumotor CE cables.
EMC Motor
For system CE compliance, you must use an EMC-ready motor, or a motor that
has demonstrated acceptable EMC performance.
NOTE: Motors may bear the CE mark. This mark indicates the motor meets the
requirements of construction and safety—not EMC compliance.
Motors with shielded cabling or pipe thread style cabling options allow the easiest
integration into machines required to bear the CE mark for EMC.
Varistors
You must install varistors or other voltage surge limiting devices in order to meet
the requirements of EN61000-4-5. Place a Littelfuse V275LA2Ø or equivalent
varistor from line to line, and from lines to earth before the mains filter, as shown
in the EMC Installation drawings later in this appendix. (Intersil, General Electric
and Littelfuse manufacture equivalent varistors.)
Mains Filter
You must install a mains filter. The next table lists recommended filters.

+24VDC Power Supply
If you use the +24VDC power supply Parker Compumotor offers for sale
(PS-60W), no additional filter is required on the +24VDC mains. If you use
another manufacturer’s +24VDC power supply, it should be CE marked for safety
and electromagnetic compatibility.
