Appendix 8 EMC and Low Voltage Directives
Compliance to the EMC Directive, which is one of the EU Directives, has been a legal obligation for the products sold
in European countries since 1996 as well as the Low Voltage Directive since 1997.
Manufacturers who recognize their products are compliant to the EMC and Low Voltage Directives are required to
attach a "CE mark" on their products.

Appendix 8.1 Measures to comply with the 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)". This section summarizes the precautions on compliance with the EMC Directive of the machinery
constructed with the Ethernet adapter module.
These precautions are based on the requirements and the standards of the regulation, however, it does not guarantee
that the entire machinery constructed according to the descriptions will comply with the above-mentioned directives.
Machine manufacturers are required to determine the method and judgment for complying with the EMC Directive at
their discretion.

(a) Emission requirements
*1 QP: Quasi-peak value, Mean: Average value
*2 The Ethernet adapter module is an open-type device (a device designed to be housed inside other equipment) and must
be installed inside a conductive control panel. The corresponding tests were conducted with the Ethernet adapter
module installed inside a control panel.
