LG Electronics D4470 EMC Directive Standards Revelant to PLCs, Product Specific Standard for PLCs

European Union Directives

A–3

The end user of the products must comply with any Directives that may cover maintenance, disposal, etc. of equipment or various components. Although we strive to provide the best assistance available, it is impossible for us to test all possible configurations of our products with respect to any specific Directive. Because of this, it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure that your machinery (as a whole) complies with these Directives and to keep up with applicable Directives and/or practices that are required for compliance.

As of January 1, 1999, the DL05, DL205, DL305, and DL405 PLC systems manufactured by Koyo Electronics Industries or FACTS Engineering, when properly installed and used, conform to the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), Low Voltage Directive, and Machinery Directive requirements of the following standards.

SProduct Specific Standard for PLCs

EN61131–2 Programmable controllers, equipment requirements and tests. This standard replaces the above generic standards for immunity and safety. However, the generic emissions standards must still be used

in conjunction with the following standards:

EN 61000-3-2	Harmonics

Automationdirect.com is currently in the process of changing their testing procedures from the generic standards to the product specific standards.

Special Installation The installation requirements to comply with the requirements of the Machinery

ManualDirective, EMC Directive and Low Voltage Directive are slightly more complex than the normal installation requirements found in the United States. To help with this, we have published a special manual which you can order:

SDA–EU–M– EU Installation Manual that covers special installation requirements to meet the EU Directive requirements. Order this manual to obtain the most up-to-date information.
