General 2
The modular concept of SINAMICS G130 makes it impossible to describe each individual
combination. This section instead aims to provide some basic information and general rules
on the basis of which special device combinations can be constructed and to ensure
electromagnetic compatibility.
The SINAMICS G130 components are designed for installation in enclosures, which can
take the form of cabinet units or control boxes made of steel that provide protection against
shock and other environmental influences. These are also integrated in the EMC concept.
2.1 Safety information
WARNING
Hazards during transport and replacement of components

Basic information about EMC 3
3.1 Introduction to EMC
What is meant by EMC?
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) describes the capability of an electrical device to
function satisfactorily in an electromagnetic environment without itself causing interference
unacceptable for other devices in the environment.
EMC therefore represents a quality feature for the
● Internal noise immunity: Resistance to internal electrical disturbances
● External noise immunity: resistance against external electromagnetic disturbances
● Noise emission level: environmental effects caused by electromagnetic emissions
To ensure that the cabinet unit functions satisfactorily in the system, the environment subject
to interference must not be neglected. For this reason, special requirements exist regarding
the structure and the EMC of the system.
Operational reliability and noise immunity
In order to achieve the greatest possible operational reliability and immunity to noise of a
complete system (converter, automation, drive machines etc.), measures must be taken by
the converter manufacturer and the user. Only when all these measures are fulfilled can the
faultless functioning of the converter be guaranteed and the specified legal requirements
(2004/108/EC) be met.

Noise emissions
Product standard EN 61800–3 outlines the EMC requirements for variable-speed drive
systems. It specifies requirements for converters with operating voltages of less than 1000 V.
Different environments and categories are defined depending on where the drive system is
installed.
