RFI lt
ers / Mains lters
RFI and mains lters are used to ensure compliance with the EMC requirements of
EN IEC 61800‑3. This standard denes the EMC requirements for electrical drive system in
various categories.
•
RFI lt
ers are capacive accessory components. RFI lters reduce conducted noise
emissions. RFI lters are also called EMC lters.
•
Mains lters are a combinaon of mains choke and RFI lter. Mains lters reduce the
conducted noise emission.
Denion of the en
vironments
(EN IEC 61800‑3)
First environment
The rst environment comprises residenal buildings or locaons that are directly connected
to a low-voltage system for supplying residenal areas.
Second environment
The second environment comprises facilies or locaons that are not directly connected to a
low-voltage system for supplying residenal areas.
Category C1
Category C1 denes the requirements for drive systems that are intended for the use in the
rst environment at a rated voltage lower than 1000 V.
The limit values of the EN IEC 61800‑3 comply with EN 55011 class B.
Category C2
Category C2 denes the requirements for permanently installed xed drive systems that are
intended for the use in the rst environment at a rated voltage lower than 1000 V. Installaon
and commissioning may only be carried out by specialist personnel with EMC knowledge.
The limit values of the EN IEC 61800‑3 comply with EN 55011 class A group 1.
Category C3
Category C3 denes the requirements for drive systems that are exclusively intended for the
use in the second environment at a rated voltage lower than 1000 V.
The limit values of the EN IEC 61800‑3 comply with EN 55011 class A group 2.
