EMC Requirements for Industrial Robots
Interference problems appear after installation, not on the datasheet.
Where compliance is assessed
| Item | What is checked |
|---|---|
| Emission | Interference the equipment produces |
| Immunity | Tolerance of external interference |
| Cabling practice | Screening, separation and earthing |
| Filtering | Correct filters and their installation |
| Documentation | Test evidence and installation requirements |
Practical measures
- Follow the installation instructions on screening and earth bonding exactly.
- Keep drives close to their motors and separate power from signal runs.
- Re-check after adding equipment to an existing installation.
EMC testing and marking requirements depend on the market. Confirm with your compliance supplier.
