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.
4-4 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%/
