ACH550-02 User’s Manual

C-Tick marking

The ACH550 carries C-Tick marking.

C-Tick marking is required in Australia and New Zealand. A

C-Tick mark is attached to the drive to verify compliance with the

relevant standard (IEC 61800-3 (2004) – Adjustable speed

electrical power drive systems – Part 3: EMC product standard

including specific test methods), mandated by the Trans-Tasman

Electromagnetic Compatibility Scheme.

The Trans-Tasman Electromagnetic Compatibility Scheme

(EMCS) was introduced by the Australian Communication

Authority (ACA) and the Radio Spectrum Management Group

(RSM) of the New Zealand Ministry of Economic Development

(NZMED) in November 2001. The aim of the scheme is to

protect the radio frequency spectrum by introducing technical

limits for emission from electrical/electronic products.

Compliance with IEC/EN 61800-3 (2004)

See page 419.

UL marking

The ACH550 is suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering

not more than 100,000 rms symmetrical amperes, 600 V

maximum. The ACH550 has an electronic motor protection

feature that complies with the requirements of UL 508C. When

this feature is selected and properly adjusted, additional

overload protection is not required unless more than one motor

is connected to the drive or unless additional protection is

required by applicable safety regulations. See parameters 3005

(MOT THERM PROT) and 3006 (MOT THERM RATE).

The drives are to be used in a controlled environment. See

section Ambient conditions on page 413 for specific limits.

IEC/EN 61800-3 (2004) Definitions

EMC stands for Electromagnetic Compatibility. It is the ability of

electrical/electronic equipment to operate without problems

within an electromagnetic environment. Likewise, the equipment

must not disturb or interfere with any other product or system

within its locality.
