9.1 Requirements for Conformance to EMC Directive
The EMC Directive specifies that products placed on the market must "be so constructed
that they do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference (emissions) and are not
unduly affected by electromagnetic interference (immunity)".
The applicable products are requested to meet these requirements. The Section 9.1.1
through Section 9.1.5 summarize the precautions on conformance to the EMC Directive of
the machinery constructed using the MELSEC-QS series programmable controllers.
The details of these precautions has been prepared based on the control requirements
and the applicable standards control. However, we will not assure that the overall
machinery manufactured according to these details conforms to the above-mentioned
directives. The method of conformance to the EMC Directive and the judgment on whether
or not the machinery conforms to the EMC Directive must be determined finally by the
manufacturer of the machinery.
