General EMI Guidance?

Post by carboncymbal »

I’m sorry if I missed this, but does centroid provide any general recommendations for the use of EMI filters or other techniques for best practice in wiring of control panels?

My build is using ac servos and 2 VFDs.

how to connect EMI filters is usual documented in the VFD or Servo manual from the manufacture of these items. I have one of them for each Servo power supply in my machines.

What EMI filters are you using? I wish high power IP20 rated filters were more common. It seems like most of what I see have exposed terminals.
