Design Guide

1.5.1 CE Conformity and Labeling

What is CE conformity and labeling?
The purpose of CE labeling is to avoid technical trade
obstacles within EFTA and the EU. The EU has introduced
the CE label as a simple way of showing whether a
product complies with the relevant EU directives and
standards. The CE label says nothing about the specifi-
cations or quality of the product.

1.5.2 CE Mark

Illustration 1.1 CE
The CE mark (Communauté Européenne) indicates that the
product manufacturer conforms to all applicable EU
directives. The EU directives applicable to the design and
manufacture of frequency converters are listed in Table 1.3.
NOTICE
The CE mark does not regulate the quality of the
product. Technical specifications cannot be deduced from
the CE mark.

Table 1.3 EU Directives Applicable to Frequency Converters
1) Machinery Directive conformance is only required for frequency
converters with an integrated safety function.
Declarations of conformity are available on request.
1.5.2.1 Low Voltage Directive
Drives must be CE-labeled in accordance with the Low
Voltage Directive of April 20, 2016. The Low Voltage
Directive applies to all electrical equipment in the 50–
1000 V AC and the 75–1500 V DC voltage ranges.
The aim of the directive is to ensure personal safety and
avoid property damage when operating electrical
equipment that is installed, maintained, and used as
intended.
