Security Information - Siemens SINAMICS GM150 Operating Instructions & Installation Instructions

Safety instructions

2.9 Security information

● Hazardous shock voltages
● The release of substances and emissions that are harmful to the environment
● Damage from pressure build-up during electric arcs in the event of a fault
● Dangerous electric arcs during internal faults
Dangerous electric arcs during internal faults
Defects such as damage to components, overvoltages, or loose parts, as well as exceptional
operating statuses, can cause a failure within the enclosure. This can result in an internal
electric arc. If an electric arc occurs and people are nearby, this could lead to death, serious
physical injury, and damage to property.
● Ensure that only qualified personnel perform any work that is required.
● Observe the safety and operating instructions in this documentation and labels attached to
2.9 Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens' products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected
to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and
only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in
place.

Hazardous shock voltages can result from the following causes, for example:
– Component malfunctions
– Induction of voltages in moving motors
– Operating and/or environmental conditions outside of the specification
– Condensation/conductive contamination
– External influences/damage
Improper operation or the improper disposal of components can harm the environment.
If the building has not been designed correctly in terms of how it has been dimensioned,
damage can result from the pressure that can possibly build up inside.
The devices have been designed according to the relevant IEC standards, and tested in line
with strict type-testing procedures. They were developed and manufactured so that there is
a very low probability of internal faults occurring. However, internal faults cannot be
completely ruled out.
