VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines Basic rules for the EMC-equitable assembly of installations Installation Guidelines 4.1 Basic rules for the EMC-equitable assembly of installations General The installation guidelines contain information about the interference free deployment of a PLC system. There is the description of the ways, interference may occur in your PLC, how you can make sure the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and how you manage the isolation.

VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines Basic rules for the EMC-equitable assembly of installations Proof the correct fixing of the lead isolation. – Data lines must be laid isolated. – Analog lines must be laid isolated. When transmitting signals with small ampli- tudes the one sided laying of the isolation may be favourable.
VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines EMC-equitable assembly 4.2 EMC-equitable assembly Mostly, measures for suppressing interference voltages are only taken, when the control is already in commission and the perfect receive of a wanted signal is disturbed. Causes for such interference's are in the most cases inadequate reference potentials, coming from mistakes at the device assembly and installation.
VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines EMC-equitable cabling 4.3 EMC-equitable cabling Line routing Content of this section is the line routing of bus, signal and supply lines. Object of the line routing is to suppress the "slurring" at parallel lines. Line routing inside and For an EMC-equitable routing of the lines it is convenient to divide the cables in different outside of cubicles groups and install each group itself:...

VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines EMC-equitable cabling Lightning protection CAUTION! Where cables and signal lines for PLC equipment are installed outside of buildings, the conditions for internal and external lightning protection must be satisfied. – Exterior lines should either be installed in metallic conduit pipes that is grounded on both ends or in steel-reinforced concrete cable trunks with continuously connected reinforcing.
Page 41
VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines EMC-equitable cabling Avoid cables with foil-type screens as the foil can be easily damaged by tension and pressure at the point of attachment; this can result in reduced effectiveness of the screening action. As a rule you should always ground the screens of cables on both ends. This is the only way in which you can ensure that high frequency interference is attenuated prop- erly.
VIPA HMI Installation Guidelines Special precautions providing high noise immunity 4.4 Special precautions providing high noise immunity Inductors require snubber Inductors controlled by your programmable controller (e.g. contactors and relays) do not networks normally require additional snubber networks or suppressors as the respective modules have been provided with the required components.
