When frequency converters are used in machines with atleast one moving part, the machine manufacturer mustprovide a declaration stating compliance with all relevantstatutes and safety measures.1.7.1.4 ErP DirectiveThe ErP directive is the European Ecodesign Directive forenergy-related products. The directive sets ecodesignrequirements for energy-related products, includingfrequency converters. The aim of the directive is toincrease energy efficiency and the level of protection ofthe environment, while at the same time increasing thesecurity of the energy supply. Environmental impact ofenergy-related products includes energy consumptionthroughout the entire product life cycle.1.7.2 C-tick ComplianceIllustration 1.2 C-TickThe C-tick label indicates compliance with the applicabletechnical standards for Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC), and is required for placing electrical and electronicdevices on the market in Australia and New Zealand.The C-tick regulatory is about conducted and radiatedemission. For frequency converters, apply the emissionlimits specified in EN/IEC 61800-3.A declaration of conformity can be provided on request.1.7.3 UL ComplianceUL ListedIllustration 1.3 ULNOTICE525-690 V frequency converters are not certified for UL.The frequency converter complies with UL508C thermalmemory retention requirements. For more information,refer to chapter 2.6.2 Motor Thermal Protection.1.7.4 Marine ComplianceUnits with ingress protection rating IP55 (NEMA 12) orhigher prevent spark formation, and are classified aslimited explosion risk electrical apparatus in accordancewith the European Agreement concerning InternationalCarriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterways (ADN).Go to www.danfoss.com for additional marine approvalsinformation.For units with ingress protection rating IP20/Chassis, IP21/NEMA 1, or IP54, prevent risk of spark formation as follows:• Do not install a mains switch• Ensure that 14-50 RFI Filter is set to [1] On.• Remove all relay plugs marked RELAY. SeeIllustration 1.4.• Check which relay options are installed, if any.The only permitted relay option is VLT® ExtendedRelay Card MCB 113.12130BD832.101, 2 Relay plugsIllustration 1.4 Location of Relay PlugsManufacturer declaration is available upon request.Introduction Design Guide12 Danfoss A/S © 09/2014 All rights reserved.
