WARNING
Base Drive Panels are operated at high voltages.
Disconnect the power supply before making any connections!
Only qualified personnel who are thoroughly familiar with all safety notices contained in the
operating instructions as well as erection, installation, operating and maintenance instructions
should be allowed to work on these devices.
Non-observance of the safety instructions can result in death, severe personal injury or
substantial property damage.
Failure to make the correct connections may result in irreparable damage to the unit.
Voltage may be present at the power and control terminals even when the motor is stopped.
The snubber capacitors may still carry a hazardous voltage for up to 2 minutes after
disconnection. For this reason, wait for at least 2 minutes before opening the converter.
When working on the open converter, remember that live parts are exposed. The unit must
always be operated with the standard front covers in place.

measures and to overcurrent protection.
These units contain hazardous rotating machinery (fans) and control rotating mechanical
