Electromagnetic Compatibility - Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 System Manual

Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
Siemens is committed to the development and production of environmentally compatible
and sustainably produced equipment.
With the help of an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), you can obtain information on
the "ecological footprint" of your Siemens product.
The EPD is based on the ISO 14021 "Environmental labels and declarations – Self declared
environmental claims – Type II" international standard.
EPDs are based on independently verified data from life cycle assessments, life cycle
inventory analyses, or information modules which comply with the ISO 14040 series of
standards. The EPD contains comprehensive data relating to ingredients and substances
(REACH, RoHS), fire load, energy consumption, packaging, and disposal information for your
Siemens product.
Additional information
The certificates for the markings and approvals can be found on the Internet under
Service&Support (https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/ps/25715/cert).
You can find the current Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for Siemens products at
Siemens Industry Online Support (https://www.siemens.com/automation/service&support) by

Electromagnetic compatibility

EMC
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of an electrical installation to function
satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without interfering with that environment.
The SIMATIC Drive Controller meets the electromagnetic compatibility requirements for drive
systems (PDS – Power Drive Systems) as defined in IEC 61800-3 category C2; 2. Environment.
Environments
EN 61800-3 defines different requirements depending on the location of the drive system,
referred to as the First and Second Environment.
First Environment locations are defined as residential buildings or locations in which the
drive system is directly connected to the public low-voltage power supply network without
intermediate transformers.
The Second Environment is understood as all non-residential locations. The main Second
Environment locations are industrial zones supplied by the medium voltage network via their
own transformers.
