8.1.3 Parts of measure against noise
(1) Ferrite core
A ferrite core has the effect of reducing noise in the 30MHz to 100MHz band.
It is not required to fit ferrite cores to cables, but it is recommended to fit ferrite
cores if shield cables pulled out of the enclosure do not provide sufficient
shielding effects.
Note that the ferrite cores must be fitted to the cables in the position immediately
before they are pulled out of the enclosure. If the fitting position is improper, the
ferrite will not produce any effect.

(2) Noise filter (power supply line filter)
A noise filter is a component which has an effect on conducted noise.
The attachment of the noise filter to the power supply line of the servo amplifier
is effective for the reducing noise.
(The noise filter has the effect of reducing conducted noise of 10 MHz or less.)
The precautions required when installing a noise filter are described below.
(a) Do not bundle the wires on the input side and output side of the noise filter.
When bundled, the output side noise will be induced into the input side
wires from which the noise was filtered.

The noise will be included when the
input and output wires are bundled.

(b) Ground the noise filter grounding terminal to the control cabinet with the
shortest wire possible (approx. 10cm (3.94 inch)).
