W ! - ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD / A
ARNING
- Drives and motors must be grounded according to NEC and local codes.
- Replace all covers before applying power to the Drive. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
- Adjustable frequency drives are electrical apparatus for use in industrial installations. Parts of the Drives are
at high voltage during operation. The electrical installation and the opening of the device should therefore
only be carried out by qualified personnel. Improper installation of motors or Drives may therefore cause
the failure of the device as well as serious injury to persons or material damage. Follow the instructions
given in this manual and observe the local and national safety regulations applicable.
- Tous les moteurs et les drives doivent être mis à la terre selon le Code Electrique National ou équivalent.
- Remettre tous les capots avant de mettre sous tension le drive. Des erreurs peuvent provoquer de sérieux
accidents ou même la mort.
- Les drives à fréquence variable sont des dispositifs électriques utilisés dans des installations industriels.
Une partie des drives sont sous tension pendant l'operation. L'installation électrique et l'ouverture des
drives devrait être executé uniquement par du personel qualifié. De mauvaises installations de moteurs ou
de drives peuvent provoquer des dommages materiels ou blesser des personnes.On doit suivir les instruc-
tions donneés dans ce manuel et observer les régles nationales de sécurité.

AUTION RECAUTION
- Do not connect power supply voltage that exceeds the standard specification voltage fluctuation permissi-
ble. If excessive voltage is applied to the Drive, damage to the internal components will result.
- Do not operate the Drive without the ground wire connected. The motor chassis should be grounded to earth
through a ground lead separate from all other equipment ground leads to prevent noise coupling.
- The grounding connector shall be sized in accordance with the NEC or Canadian Electrical Code. The
connection shall be made by a UL listed or CSA certified closed-loop terminal connector sized for the wire
gauge involved. The connector is to be fixed using the crimp tool specified by the connector manufacturer.
- Do not perform a megger test between the Drive terminals or on the control circuit terminals.
- Because the ambient temperature greatly affects Drive life and reliability, do not install the Drive in any
location that exceeds the allowable temperature. Leave the ventilation cover attached for temperatures of
104° F (40° C) or below.
- If the Drive's Fault Alarm is activated, consult the TROUBLESHOOTING section of this instruction book, and
after correcting the problem, resume operation. Do not reset the alarm automatically by external sequence, etc.
- Be sure to remove the desicant dryer packet(s) when unpacking the Drive. (If not removed these packets
may become lodged in the fan or air passages and cause the Drive to overheat).
- The Drive must be mounted on a wall that is constructed of heat resistant material. While the Drive is
operating, the temperature of the Drive's cooling fins can rise to a temperature of 194° F (90°C).
- Do not touch or damage any components when handling the device. Changing of isolation gaps or removing
the isolation covers is not permissible.
- Protect the device from disallowed environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, shock etc.)
- No voltage should be connected to the output of the frequency inverter (terminals U2, V2 W2). The parallel
connection of several frequency inverters via the outputs and the direct connection of the inputs and outputs
(bypass) are not permissible.
- A capacitative load (e.g. Var compensation capacitors) should not be connected to the output of the fre-
quency inverter (terminals U2, V2, W2).
- The electrical commissioning should only be carried out by qualified personnel, who are also responsible
for the provision of a suitable ground connection and a protected power supply feeder in accordance with
the local and national regulations. The motor must be protected against overloads.
- No dielectric tests should be carried out on parts of the frequency inverter. A suitable measuring instrument
(internal resistance of at least 10 kΩ/V) should be used for measuring the signal voltages.
