Recently, the use of individual control products in Europe requires conformance

to standards recognized by the European Union (EU) member states.

These standards were designed to allow quick and fair market access throughout

the EU. The Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC), directive – 89/336/EEC,

requirement placed on vendors is one of the toughest standards

regulating electromagnetic emissions and noise immunity.

Briefly, the EMC Directive states that components, such as servos, are considered

small portions of larger machines and therefore may not need individual compliance.

It would then be the machine builder’s responsibility to conform to the EMC Directive

for machines going into Europe. This approach, taken by many servo manufacturers,

places compliance burden completely on the machine builder.

Product testing by the machine builder will therefore be an excessively large expense.

The fact that EMERSON Motion Control products already posses the CE Mark is a distinct

advantage for machine builders. New models in our popular FX Drive series cover continuous

torque ratings ranging from 8 to 120 lb-in.

These models  include the FX-208CE through the FX-6120CE.
