Safety and Operating Instructions

1. General
In operation, drive converters, depending on their de-
gree of protection, may have live, uninsulated, and
possibly also moving or rotating parts, as well as hot
surfaces.
In case of inadmissible removal of the required covers,
of improper use, wrong installation or maloperation,
there is the danger of serious personal injury and da-
mage to property.
For further information, see documentation.
All operations serving transport, installation and com-
missioning as well as maintenance are to be carried
out by skilled technical personnel (Observe IEC 364
or CENELEC HD 384 or DIN VDE 0100 and IEC 664
or DIN/VDE 0110 and national accident prevention
rules!).
For the purposes of these basic safety instructions,
„skilled technical personnel" means persons who are
familiar with the installation, mounting, commissioning
and operation of the product and have the qualifica-
tions needed for the performance of their functions.
2. Intended use
Drive converters are components designed for inclusi-
on in electrical installations or machinery.
In case of installation in machinery, commissioning of
the drive converter (i.e. the starting of normal operati-
on) is prohibited until the machinery has been proved
to conform to the provisions of the directive 2006/42/
EC (Machinery Safety Directive - MSD). Account is to
be taken of EN 60204.
Commissioning (i.e. the starting of normal operation)
is admissible only where conformity with the EMC di-
rective (2004/108/EC) has been established.
The drive converters meet the requirements of the
Low-Voltage directive 2006/95/EC. They are subject
to the harmonized standards of the series EN 50178/
VDE 0160.
The technical data as well as information concerning
the supply conditions shall be taken from the rating
plate and from the documentation and shall be strictly
observed.
3. Transport, storage
The instructions for transport, storage and proper use
shall be complied with.
The climatic conditions shall be in conformity with EN
50178.
4 Installation
The installation and cooling of the appliances shall be
in accordance with the specifications in the pertinent
documentation.
The drive converters shall be protected against exces-
sive strains. In particular, no components must be bent
or isolating distances altered in the course of trans-
Safety and Operating Instructions for drive converters
(in conformity with the Low-Voltage Directive 2006/95/EG)
Important, absolutely read
portation or handling. No contact shall be made with
electronic components and contacts.
Drive converters contain electrostatic sensitive com-
ponents which are liable to damage through improper
use. Electric components must not be mechanically
damaged or destroyed (potential health risks).
5. Electrical connection
When working on live drive converters, the applicable
national accident prevention rules (e.g. VBG 4) must
be complied with.
The electrical installation shall be carried out in accor-
dance with the relevant requirements (e.g. cross-sec-
tional areas of conductors, fusing, PE connection). For
further information, see documentation. (Instruction
manual part 1)
Instructions for the installation in accordance with
EMC requirements, like screening, earthing, location
of filters and wiring, are contained in the drive con-
verter documentation. They must always be complied
with, also for drive converters bearing a CE marking.
Observance of the limit values required by EMC law is
the responsibility of the manufacturer of the installation
or machine.
A high frequency filter and a THD filter are additi-
onally required in order to meet the european lift
standard EN12015.
6. Operation
Installations which include drive converters shall be
equipped with additional control and protective de-
vices in accordance with the relevant applicable safety
requirements, e.g. act respecting technical equipment,
accident prevention rules etc.. Changes to the drive
converters by means of the operating software are ad-
missible.
After disconnection of the drive converter from the vol-
tage supply, live appliance parts and power terminals
must not be touched immediately because of possibly
energized capacitors. In this respect, the correspondi-
ng signs and markings on the drive converter must be
respected.
During operation, all covers and doors shall be kept
closed.
7. Maintenance and servicing
The manufacturer's documentation shall be followed.
