WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not immediately energize the drive or operate peripheral devices after the drive
blows a fuse or trips an RCM/RCD. Wait for the time specified on the warning label at a minimum and make sure that all
indicators are OFF. Then check the wiring and peripheral device ratings to find the cause of the problem. Contact Yaskawa
before energizing the drive or peripheral devices if the cause is not known. Failure to obey can cause death or serious injury
and damage to the drive.
WARNING Fire Hazard. Install sufficient branch circuit short circuit protection as specified by applicable codes and this
manual. The drive is suited for circuits that supply not more than 100,000 RMS symmetrical amperes, 240 Vac maximum (200 V
Class), 480 Vac maximum (400 V Class). Failure to obey can cause death or serious injury.
CAUTION Burn Hazard. Do not touch a hot drive heatsink. De-energize the drive, wait 15 minutes minimum, and make
sure that the heatsink is cool to replace the cooling fans. Failure to obey can cause minor to moderate injury.
NOTICE
Observe correct electrostatic discharge (ESD) procedures when touching the drive and circuit boards. Failure
to obey can cause ESD damage to the drive circuitry.
NOTICE Do not connect or disconnect the motor from the drive while the drive is supplying voltage. Incorrect
equipment sequencing can cause damage to the drive.
NOTICE
Do not do a withstand voltage test or Megger test on the drive. Failure to obey can cause damage to the drive.
NOTICE
Do not connect or operate damaged equipment or equipment with missing parts. Failure to obey can cause
damage to the drive and connected equipment.
NOTICE Install fuses and an RCM/RCD. Failure to obey can cause damage to the drive.
NOTICE
Do not use unshielded wire for control wiring. Use shielded, twisted-pair wires and ground the shield to the
ground terminal of the drive. Failure to obey can cause electrical interference and unsatisfactory system performance.
NOTICE Make sure that all connections are correct after you install the drive and connecting peripheral devices.
Failure to obey can cause damage to the drive.
