We are currently performing EMC susceptibility tests on our machine, which is equipped with an ASI safety at work safety system.
The system trips when a 1.5Kv spike is fed into the 3-phase mains input. Although failsafe and easily reset I wish to minimise the possibility of nuisance trips of the safety system.
Are there any guidelines regarding filtering the power supplies and/or application of ferrites to the ASI cable?
The system is Pepperl and Fuchs based. It has shown to be very robust during normal machine operation. Should I be worried about it tripping at 1.5KV? The machine is going to Holland so there ought not to be any dirty mains issues.
