13.2 Conformity with European Standards
The CE marking on Fuji products indicates that they comply with the essential requirements of the
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive 2004/108/EC and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD)
2006/95/EC issued by the Council of the European Communities.

* Basic-type inverters without a built-in EMC filter comply with the EMC Directive only if the inverter is
combined with a Fuji proprietary external filter.
EMC filter built-in type inverters are put in the Category C3 of EN61800-3. They are not intended fo
home or office use. Use of this type of inverter under home or office environment may cause the
inverter to generate noise, resulting in malfunctions.
13.3 Conformity with EMC Directives in Europe
13.3.1 General
The CE mark on our inverter does not certify that an entire piece of machinery including our product
complies with EMC Directives. Thus, a CE mark can be affixed to and indicated on a piece of machinery
only under the responsibility of the manufacturer. This is because CE marking is indicated on our products
on condition that the product is used under specific conditions.
A piece of machinery generally includes various units other than our products. Thus, the manufacturer
should design the whole system to be compliant with the relevant directives.
To conform to the directives, use an inverter with a built-in EMC filter or a basic-type inverter without a
built-in EMC filter in combination with a Fuji proprietary external filter (option). In either case, install the
inverter in accordance with the recommended installation method described below. It is recommended that
the inverter be installed in a metal control panel to more closely conform to the directives.
EMC qualification testing is performed under a condition that the wiring length (shielded wire) between
the inverter (EMC filter built-in type) and motor is 5 m.
When combining an inverter with a PWM converter, use an inverter without a built-in EMC filter. Using
an EMC filter built-in type inverter may increase the generation of heat by capacitors and othe
electronic parts inside the inverter, leading to a damage of the product. In addition, the effect of the EMC
filter can no longer be expected.
