Installation and Configuration
Soloist HPe 50/75/100
2.1.3. Minimizing Conducted, Radiated, and System Noise
The Soloist HPe 50/75/100 generates conducted (AC line) and radiated noise. Conducted emissions are
minimized by using line filters and should be located as close to the drive as possible for maximum
effectiveness. User connections to the product must be made using shielded cables with metal D-style
connectors and back shells. The shield of the cables must be connected to the metal back shell in order for
the product to conform to radiated emission standards.The Soloist HPe 50/75/100 is a component designed
to be integrated with other electronics. EMC testing must be conducted on the final product configuration.
Ferrite beads can be used on the motor leads to reduce the effects of PWM noise.
