Installation manual

Directives and Standards
The SERVOSTAR S and SERVOSTAR CD product series have been successfully tested and
evaluated to meet UL/cUL 508C for both U.S. and Canadian markets. This standard describes the
fulfillment by design of minimum requirements for electrically operated power conversion
equipment, such as frequency converters and servo amplifiers, which is intended to eliminate the risk
of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, being caused by such equipment.
CE Mark Conformance
Servo drives are components that are intended to be incorporated into electrical plant and machines
for industrial use. When the servo drives are built into machines or plants, drives cannot be operated
until the machine or plant fulfills the requirements of the EC Directive on Machines 89/392/EEC and
the EC Directive on EMC (89/336/EEC). EN 60204 and EN 292 must also be observed.
In connection with the Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC, the harmonized standards of the EN
50178 series are applied to the amplifiers, together with EN 60439-1, EN 60146 and EN 60204.
The manufacturer of the machine or plant is responsible for ensuring that they meet the limits
required by the EMC regulations. Advice on the correct installation for EMC - such as shielding,
grounding, arrangement of filters, treatment of connectors and the laying out of cabling - can be
found within this documentation.
Conformance with the EC Directive on EMC 89/336/EEC and the Low Voltage Directive
73/23/EEC is mandatory for the supply of servo drives within the European Community.
An authorized testing laboratory in a defined configuration with the system components has tested
the servo drives. Any divergence from the configuration and installation described in this
documentation means that you are responsible for the performance of new measurements to ensure
that the regulatory requirements are met.
Danaher Motion Kollmorgen’s SERVOSTAR S-Series and C-Series drives and systems have been
successfully tested and evaluated to the limits and requirements of the EC Directive on EMC
(89/336/EEC) and the EC Directive on Low Voltage (72/73/EEC). The product lines have been
evaluated to EN50178 and EN60204 as a component of a machine and other relevant standards.
The EMC of a system can be identified by emissions and immunity. Emissions refer to the
generation of EMI (electromagnetic interference) and immunity refers to the susceptibility levels of
the equipment. Limits were derived from generic standards EN55081-2 and EN55082-2 for heavy
industrial environments. The SERVOSTAR S and SERVOSTAR CD series of drives and BUS
Modules have been tested for radiated emissions, conducted emissions, EFT, ESD, surge, conducted
immunity, and radiated immunity. These tests have been done in accordance with EN55011,
EN61000-4-2, ENV50140, IEC 1000-4-4, EN61000-4-5, and ENV50141.
Installation of the equipment is critical in designing for system and machine
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). You must apply the installation
recommendations and the CE filtering Practices when mounting and
installing the drive system for CE conformance.
