Approvals and Certications
Drives are designed in compliance with the directives
described in this section.
1.4.1 CE Mark
The CE mark (Conformité Européenne) indicates that the
product manufacturer conforms to all applicable EU
directives.
The EU directives applicable to the design and
manufacture of drives are:
•
The Low Voltage Directive.
•
The EMC Directive.
•
The Machinery Directive (for units with an
integrated safety function).
The CE mark is intended to eliminate technical barriers to
free trade between the EC and EFTA states inside the ECU.
The CE mark does not regulate the quality of the product.
Technical specications cannot be deduced from the CE
mark.
1.4.2 Low Voltage Directive
Drives are classied as electronic components and must be
CE-labeled in accordance with the Low Voltage Directive.
The directive applies to all electrical equipment in the 50–
1000 V AC and the 75–1500 V DC voltage ranges.
The directive mandates that the equipment design must
ensure the safety and health of people and livestock, and
the preservation of material by ensuring the equipment is
properly installed, maintained, and used as intended.
Danfoss CE labels comply with the Low Voltage Directive,
and Danfoss provides a declaration of conformity upon
request.
