9.1 Requirements for Compliance with EMC Directives
The EMC Directives specifies emission and immunity criteria and requires the products to
meet both of them, i.e., not to emit excessive electromagnetic interference (emission): to
be immune to electromagnetic interference outside (immunity). Guidelines for complying
the machinery including MELSEC-AnS series programmable controller with the EMC
Directives are provided in Section 9.1.1 to Section 9.1.7 below.
The guidelines are created based on the requirements of the regulations and relevant
standards, however, they do not guarantee that the machinery constructed according to
them will not comply with the Directives. Therefore, the manufacturer of the machinery
must finally determine how to make it comply with the EMC Directives: if it is actually
compliant with the EMC Directives.
