Installation Instructions

Although the E-AC Drive is technically considered a motion control component and is therefore not within the scope of the European Union’s CE (Conformité Europé enne) directives, Compumotor has taken the initiative to provide its customers with easy to integrate motion control products that meet global require- ments.

The following constitutes what is typically required to install the E-AC Drive into a CE compliant system. Additional installation measures may be required at some locations. The machine builder has ultimate responsibility for machine compli- ance.

•Drive safety earth conductor

•Motor safety earth

•Drive must be installed such that the hazardous live terminals (barrier strip) are not accessible under normal operation

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Installation Requirements:

•Product does not need to be placed within an enclosure

•Mains filter (see filter recommendations)

•Transient suppressors (mains surge test)

•EMC cabling, braided and bonded as specified below

•EMC ready motor, or motor with EMC installation information
