1-7-3 Conformance to EC Directives
• Use proper lifting techniques when moving the HMI; including properly
sizing up the load, and getting assistance if required.
• Store in a well-ventilated covered location and preferably in the original
packaging if the HMI will not be used upon receipt.
• Store in a cool, clean, and dry location. Avoid storage locations with
extreme temperatures, rapid temperature changes, high humidity,
moisture, dust, corrosive gases, or metal particles.
• Do not store the HMI in places that are exposed to outside weather
conditions (i.e., wind, rain, snow, etc.).
• Never dispose electrical components via incineration. Contact your state
environmental agency for details on disposal of electrical components,
batteries and packaging in your area.
• EMC (ElectroMagnetic Compatibility) Directives
• Low-voltage directive
OMRON units complying with EC Directives also conform to related product
standards making them easier to incorporate in other units or machines. The
actual products have been checked for conformity to product standards.
Whether the products conform to the standards in the system used by the
customer, however, must be checked by the customer.
Product related performance of OMRON units complying with EC Directives
will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the
equipment or control panel in which OMRON devices are installed. The
customer must, therefore, perform final checks to confirm that units and the
overall system conforms to product standards.
A Declaration of Conformity for the NQ-Series can be requested at your
nearest OMRON representative.
NQ-Series should be installed as follows, for the complete configuration to
meet the EC directives:
1 The units are designed for installation in panels. All units must be installed
in control panels.
2 Use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies
used for the communication power supply, internal circuit power supply,
and the I/O power supplies.
3 The NQ-Series meets the generic emission standard. However as EMC
performance can vary in the final installation, additional measures may be
required to meet the standards. It should therefore be verified that the
overall machine or device also meets the relevant standards. You must
therefore confirm that EC directives are met for the overall machine or
device, particularly for the radiated emission requirement (10 m).
4 This is a class A product. It may cause radio interference in residential
areas, in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures
to reduce interference.
