• Low Voltage Directive

EMC Directives

 

 

 

OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related

 

 

EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or the

 

 

overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to

 

 

EMC standards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the

 

 

standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by

 

 

the customer.

 

 

 

EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Direc-

 

 

tives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of

 

 

the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed.

 

 

The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to confirm that devices

 

 

and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.

 

Note

Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:

 

 

EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility):

EN61000-6-2

 

 

EMI (Electromagnetic Interference):

EN61000-6-4

 

 

(Radiated emission: 10-m regulations)

 

 

Low Voltage Directive

 

 

 

Always ensure that devices operating at voltages of 50 to 1,000 V AC and 75

 

 

to 1,500 V DC meet the required safety standards for the Motion Controller

 

 

(EN61131-2).

 

4-3

Conformance to EC Directives

 

 

 

The FQM1-series Flexible Motion Controllers comply with EC Directives. To

 

 

ensure that the machine or device in which the Motion Controller is used com-

 

 

plies with EC Directives, the Motion Controller must be installed as follows:

 

1,2,3...

1. The Motion Controller must be installed within a control panel.

 

 

2. You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power

 

 

supplies used for the communications power supply and I/O power sup-

 

 

plies.

 

 

 

3. Motion Controllers complying with EC Directives also conform to the Com-

 

 

mon Emission Standard (EN61000-6-4). Radiated emission characteris-

 

 

tics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the configuration of the

 

 

control panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring,

 

 

and other conditions. You must therefore confirm that the overall machine

 

 

or equipment complies with EC Directives.

EMC Directive Conformance Conditions

 

The immunity testing condition of the Motion Control Modules is as follows:

Overall accuracy of FQM1-MMA21 analog I/O: +4%/2%
