Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Product family standard for machine tools -- Part 2: Immunity

This standard deals with the electromagnetic immunity of machine tools designed exclusively for industrial and similar purposes that use electricity, the rated voltage of the machine tool not exceeding 1 000 V a.c. or 1 500 V d.c. between lines.
Machine tools may incorporate motors, heating ele¬ments or their combination, may contain electric or electronic circuitry, and may be powered by the mains, or any other electrical power source.
This immunity standard may also be used for assessment of equipment used in other environments, which require less stringent immunity levels (residential, light industry…) than the industrial environment.
This standard is not intended for the EMC conformity assessment of modules to be placed on the market separately.
This standard is not intended for complying with Machinery Directive 98/37/EC. Hence safety considerations are not covered by this standard.
This standard does not cover fixed installations as defined in the Guide to the Application of Directive 89/336/EEC, published by the European Commission.
This standard does not apply to apparatus intended to be used in locations where special electromagnetic conditions prevail, such as the pres¬ence of high electromagnetic fields (e.g. in the vi¬cinity of a broadcast transmitting station) or where high pulses occur on the power network (e.g. in a power generator station). In these instances special mitigation measures may have to be employed.
Immunity requirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are covered. No measurements need to be performed at frequencies where no requirements are specified.

Elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit (EMV) - Produktfamiliennorm für Werkzeugmaschinen -- Teil 2: Störfestigkeit

Diese Norm gilt für die Störfestigkeit gegen elektromagnetische Phänomene für Werkzeugmaschinen, die ausschließlich für industrielle und ähnliche Anwendungen bestimmt sind, Elektrizität benutzen und deren Nennbetriebsspannung 1 000 V Wechselspannung oder 1 500 V Gleichspannung zwischen den Versor-gungsleitungen nicht überschreitet.
Werkzeugmaschinen können Motoren, Heizungselemente oder deren Kombination enthalten; sie können elektrische oder elektronische Schaltkreise enthalten und können aus dem Stromversorgungsnetz oder an-deren Stromquellen versorgt werden.
Diese Störfestigkeitsnorm kann auch für die Bewertung von elektrischen Betriebsmittel verwendet werden, die in anderen Umgebungen betrieben werden, die geringere Anforderungen an die Störfestigkeit erfordern als der Industriebereich (wie Wohnbereich, Kleinbetriebe ....).
Diese Norm ist nicht für die Bewertung der Übereinstimmung mit EMV-Anforderungen für Baugruppen (Modulen) vorgesehen, die getrennt (einzeln) in Verkehr gebracht werden.
Diese Norm ist nicht für die Übereinstimmung mit den Anforderungen der Maschinen-Richtlinie 98/37/EG vor¬gesehen. Diese Norm deckt keine Anforderungen zur Sicherheit ab.
Diese Norm deckt keine ortsfesten Anlagen ab, wie sie in dem Leitfaden zur Anwendung der Richtlinie 89/336/EWG des Rates vom 3. Mai 1989 zur Angleichung der Rechtsvorschriften der Mitgliedstaaten über die elektromagnetische Verträglichkeit definiert sind, der von der Europäischen Kommission herausgegeben wurde.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für elektrische Betriebsmittel, die für den Einsatz an Orten vorgesehen sind, an denen spezielle Bedingungen bezüglich der elektromagnetischen Umgebung bestehen, wie z. B. das Vorhandensein von hohen elektromagnetischen Felder (zum Beispiel in der Nähe von Rundfunksendern) oder das Auftreten von hohen transienten Überspannungen auf dem Stromversorgungsnetz zu erwarten sind (zum Beispiel in einem Kraftwerk). In diesen Fällen können spezielle EMV-Maßnahmen erforderlich werden.
Die Anforderungen zur Störfestigkeit gelten im Frequenzbereich von 0 Hz bis 400 GHz. Prüfungen sind nicht erforderlich bei den Frequenzen, für die keine Grenzwerte festgelegt sind.

Compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM) - Norme de famille de produits pour les machines-outils -- Partie 2: Immunité

Cette norme traite de l’immunité électromagnétique des machines-outils conçues exclusivement pour des applications industrielles et analogues qui utilisent l’électricité, la tension assignée de la machine-outil ne dépassant pas 1 000 V en courant alternatif ou 1 500 V en courant continu entre phases.
Les machines-outils qui incorporent des moteurs, des éléments chauffants ou des combinaisons de ceux-ci, peuvent contenir des circuits électriques ou électroniques et peuvent être alimentées par le réseau électrique ou par toute autre source d’énergie électrique.
Cette norme d’immunité peut également être utilisée pour l’évaluation des matériels utilisés dans d’autres environnements qui exigent des niveaux d’immunité moins sévères (environnement domestique, industriel léger…) que l’environnement industriel.
Cette norme n’est pas destinée à l’évaluation de conformité CEM des modules devant être commercialisés individuellement.
Cette norme n’est pas prévue pour la conformité à la Directive Machine 98/37/CE. C’est la raison pour laquelle elle ne traite pas des aspects de sécurité.
Cette norme ne couvre pas les installations fixes telles qu’elles sont définies dans le Guide d’application de la Directive 89/336/CEE, publié par la Commission Européenne.
Cette norme ne s’applique pas aux appareils destinés à être utilisés dans des emplacements présentant des conditions électromagnétiques particulières, telles que la présence de champs électromagnétiques élevés (par exemple à proximité d’une station d’émission de radiodiffusion) ou le cas d’impulsions élevées sur le réseau électrique (par exemple dans une centrale électrique). Dans de tels cas, des mesures particulières de réduction peuvent s’avérer nécessaires.
Les exigences d’immunité dans la gamme de fréquences de 0 Hz à 400 GHz sont couvertes. Il n’est pas nécessaire de réaliser des mesures aux fréquences pour lesquelles aucune exigence n’a été spécifiée.

4.1 Test approach
Type testing of a finished product is the normal method for conformity assessment, but complete testing
of an entire machine tool at a conventional EMC test site is only technically possible and economically
feasible for a limited number of machines. A distinction shall be drawn between type-testable machines
and machines which, because of the weight, dimensions, operation or unreasonable testing costs and
testing delay, cannot be type-tested as a whole at a conventional EMC test site.

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------

EN 50370-2:2003 – 8 –
Furthermore, it is necessary to take into account single-piece production and the multitude of types as
well as expansions and modifications.
Distinctions shall be drawn between the following cases and shall be taken into account:
− type-testable machines;
− machines which are not type-testable;
− multitude of types;
− modifications, additions and expansions.
Each assessment of conformity could be based on one or a combination of various tests:
− type test at the EMC test site;
− visual inspection of entire machine tools;
− additional tests on entire machine tools at manufacturers premises.

5 Immunity tests
5.1 Classification and testing procedures
The immunity testing procedures are described in the following paragraphs. A flow chart providing an
overview of the test procedures is included in the informative Annex E.
5.1.1 Machine tool containing no electromagnetically relevant components
If the machine tool contains no electromagnetically relevant components, no tests have to be carried out.
EXAMPLES Machine tools containing only components such as electric motors, electromechanical
switches, thermostats, (rechargeable) batteries etc.
5.1.2 Machine tool containing electromagnetically relevant components
If the machine tool contains electromagnetically relevant components such as electronic control and
power parts (sub-assemblies, sub-systems, etc.), one of the procedures laid down in Table 1 shall be
carried out. The test procedure is chosen by the manufacturer based on the characteristics of the
machine tool.
Table 1 – Test procedures
Test Procedure Procedure A Procedure B Procedure C
(Applicable for the entire MT) (Applicable for the entire (Applicable for electrical or
electrical set) electromechanical modules)
Type test Required Required Required
Visual inspection of entire MT Not required Optional (see note) Required
Additional tests on entire MT Not required Optional (see note) Required
at manufacturers premises
NOTE Visual inspection or additional tests as decided by the manufacturer.

5.1.2.1 Test procedure A
The machine tool shall be tested according to the immunity requirements laid down in this standard (see
5.2 to 5.6 and Annex A).
For tests, the machine tool shall operate as specified by the manufacturer.
The performance criteria (Table 2) shall be used to check the performance of a machine tool before,
during and after each immunity test.
5.1.2.2 Test procedure B
The entire electrical set of the machine tool shall be tested according to the specific immunity
requirements laid down in this standard (see 5.2 to 5.6 and Annexes A and B) while simulating specific
functions to be specified by the manufacturer.
The performance criteria (Table 2) shall be used to check the performance of a machine tool before,
during and after each immunity test.
5.1.2.3 Test procedure C
The machine tool shall be divided into modules by the manufacturer in any appropriate fashion to enable
the procedure C to be carried out.
After having divided a machine tool into modules, the manufacturer shall classify each module as
electromagnetically relevant or irrelevant concerning the immunity of the machine tool.
Electromagnetically irrelevant modules need not be tested.
Electromagnetically relevant modules shall be subjected to the following steps:
1) determine which ports of the machine tool are electrically connected to which port or interfaces of the
module (see Annex C, Table C.1);
2) the tests shall be applied to all ports of the module which will be used as external ports in the
complete machine tool;
3) the enclosure ports of all modules are considered to be connected to the enclosure port of the
machine tool;
4) the module shall be tested according to the immunity requirements laid down in this standard (see 5.2
to 5.6 and Annexes A and C) or according to a harmonised European generic, product family or
product immunity standard for the industrial environment.
NOTE The machine tool builder does not need to repeat tests on an EMC compliant module as declared by its manufacturer.
5.2 Test arrangements
Tests shall be applied to the relevant ports of the machine tool or the modules as specified in 5.1.2.1 to
5.1.2.3 and the respective annexes.
However, if several process measurement and control ports or signal interfaces have the same physical
configuration (layout) it is sufficient to test one port or interface of that type.
The tests shall be carried out as single tests in sequence. The sequence of testing is optional.
These tests shall be performed normally in the test conditions as specified in the basic immunity
standards
