Follow instructions below for the proper installation of the control wiring:
1) Wire gauge: 0.5 mm² (20 AWG) to 1.5 mm² (14 AWG).
2) Maximum tightening torque: 0.50 N.m (4.50 lbf.in).
3) Use shielded cables for the connections in XC1 and run the cables separated from the
remaining circuits (power, 110 V / 220 Vac control, etc.), according to
Distances. If control wiring must cross other cables (power cables for instance), make it
cross perpendicular to the wiring and provide a minimum separation of 5 cm (1.9 in) at the
crossing point.

4) Relays, contactors, solenoids or coils of electromechanical brakes installed close to the
inverter may eventually create interferences in the control circuitry. To eliminate this effect,
RC suppressors (with AC power supply) or free-wheel diodes (with DC power supply) shall
be connected in parallel to the coils of these devices.
3.2.6 Cable Distances
The power cables and control cables must be separated (relay output cables and other control
cables) according to table 3.3.

3.3 INSTALLATION ACCORDING TO THE EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE OF
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
The inverters with C3 option (CFW700...C3...) have internal C3 RFI filter to reduce electromagnetic
interference. These inverters, when properly installed, meet the requirements of "EMC Directive
89/336/EEC" with the 93/68/EEC supplement.
The CFW700 inverter series has been designed only for industrial applications. Therefore, the
emission limits of harmonic currents defined by the standards EN 61000-3-2 and EN 61000-
3-2/A 14 are not applicable.
