During Operation; Operating Environment - IMO iDrive Instruction Manual

1.1.5 During operation

Do not connect or disconnect the motor while inverter is operating the motor otherwise the inverter
and/or the disconnecting device may be damaged by the high level of switch-off current.
To avoid electric shock, do not remove the front cover when power is on.
After a power-loss trip (under-volt) trip occurs, the motor will restart automatically when power is
restored if auto-restart function is set. In this case, care must be taken while working with the machine.
Note: External Emergency stop must open and un-latch the power supply to the inverter without
any chance of re-closing until required. Do not rely upon software control for Emergency stop.
Do not touch heat-generating components such as heat sink and brake resistor.
The inverter can operate the motor from low speeds to very high speeds.
Verify the allowable speed ranges of the motor and the load before operation.
Note the settings related to the braking unit.
Do not check signals on circuit PCB while the inverter is running.
Allow a minimum of 5 minutes after power down before attempting to disassemble or
checking the components within the drive.

1.1.6 Operating environment

When the inverter top dust cover has been removed it can be used in a non-condensing
atmosphere in temperature range from –10
the environment should be free from corrosive gasses, condensation and metallic dust.
