For compliance with the protection objectives of
the German EMC Act (EMVG) in systems and
machines, the following EMC standards must
be satisfied:
Product Standard EN 61800-3
EMC standard for drive systems (PowerDriveSys-
tem), interference immunity and emissions in resi-
dential areas, enterprise zones with light industry
and in industrial facilities.
This standard must be complied with in the EU for
satisfying the EMC requirements for systems and
machines!

Operation with separate power converter transformer. If there
are other loads at the same secondary winding, these must be
able to cope with the commutation gaps caused by the power
converter. In some cases, commutating reactors will be
required.

Classification
The following overview
utilises the terminolo-
gy and indicates the
action required in ac-
cordance with Product
Standard
EN 61800-3
For the DCS 500B se-
ries, the limit values for emitted
interference are complied with,
provided the action indicated is
carried out. This action is based
on the term Restricted Distri-
bution used in the standard
(meaning a sales channel in
which the products concerned
can be placed in the stream of
commerce only by suppliers,
customers or users which indi-
vidually or jointly possess tech-
nical EMC expertise).
For power converters without
additional components, the fol-
lowing warning applies:
This is a product with restrict-
ed obtainability under IEC
61800-3. This product may
cause radio interference in
residential areas; in this case,
it may be necessary for the
operator to take appropriate
action (see adjacent dia-
grams).
The field supply is not depicted in
this overview diagram. For the
field current cables, the same
rules apply as for the armature-
circuit cables.
