Appendix D
You are required to satisfy the EMC directive (89/336/EEC) when using an SJ200 inverter in an EU country. To satisfy the EMC directive and to comply with standard, follow the guidelines in this section.
1.As user you must ensure that the HF (high frequency) impedance between adjustable frequency inverter, filter, and ground is as small as possible.
•Ensure that the connections are metallic and have the largest possible contact areas
2.Avoid conductor loops that act like antennas, especially loops that encompass large areas.
•Avoid unnecessary conductor loops.
•Avoid parallel arrangement of
3.Use shielded wiring for the motor cable and all analog and digital control lines.
•Allow the effective shield area of these lines to remain as large as possible; i.e., do not strip away the shield (screen) further away from the cable end than absolutely necessary.
•With integrated systems (for example, when the adjustable frequency inverter is communicating with some type of supervisory controller or host computer in the same control cabinet and they are connected at the same ground +
•To achieve a large area contact between shield and ground +
•Use only cable with braided, tinned copper mesh shield (type “CY”) with 85% coverage.
•The shielding continuity should not be broken at any point in the cable. If the use of reactors, contactors, terminals, or safety switches in the motor output is neces- sary, the unshielded section should be kept as short as possible.
•Some motors have a rubber gasket between terminal box and motor housing. Very often, the terminal boxes, and particularly the threads for the metal PG screw connections, are painted. Make sure there is always a good metallic connection between the shielding of the motor cable, the metal PG screw connection, the terminal box, and the motor housing. If necessary, carefully remove paint between conducting surfaces.
