■ Use of EMC-correct cables
Braided shielded/armored cables are recommended
to optimise EMC immunity of the control cables and
the EMC emission from the motor cables.
The ability of a cable to reduce the in- and outgoing
radiation of electric noise depends on the transfer
impedance (Z
T
). The shield of a cable is normally
designed to reduce the transfer of electric noise;
however, a schield with a lower transfer impedance
(Z
T
) value is more effective than a shield with a
higher transfer impedance (Z
T
).
Transfer impedance (Z
T
) is rarely stated by
cable manufacturers, but it is often possible to
estimate transfer impedance (Z
T
) by assessing
the physical design of the cable.
Transfer impedance (Z
T
) can be assessed on the
basis of the following factors:
- The conductibility of the shield material.
- The contact resistance between the individual
shield conductors.
- The shield coverage, i.e. the physical area
of the cable covered by the shield - often
stated as a percentage value.
- Shield type, i.e. braided or twisted pattern.
Aluminium-clad with copper wire.
Twistedcopperwireorarmouredsteelwirecable.
Single-layer braided copper wire with varying
percentage shield coverage.
This is the typical Danfoss reference cable.
Double-layer braided copper wire.
Twin layer of braided copper wire with a magnetic,
shielded/armored intermediate layer.
Cable that runs in copper tube or steel tube.
Lead cable with 1.1 mm wall thickness.
