Warning and Cautions

General
This equipment contains dangerous voltages and controls potentially dangerous rotating
mechanical parts. Non-compliance with the warnings or failure to follow the instructions
contained in this manual can result in loss of life, severe personal injury or serious damage
to property.
Protection in case of direct contact by means of SELV / PELV is only permissible in areas
with equipotential bonding and in dry indoor rooms. If these conditions are not fulfilled,
other protective measures against electric shock must be applied e.g. protective insulation.
Only suitably qualified personnel should work on this equipment, and only after becoming
familiar with all safety notices, installation, operation and maintenance procedures
contained in this manual. The successful and safe operation of this equipment is dependent
upon its proper handling, installation, operation and maintenance.
As the earth leakage for this product can be greater than 3.5 mA a.c., a fixed earth
connection is required and the minimum size of the protective earth conductor shall comply
with the local safety regulations for high leakage current equipment.
Due to the high inrush currents in the earth conductor, this product is not compatible with
an RCD (also referred to as an ELCB or RCCB).
The power supply, DC and motor terminals, the brake and thermistor cables can carry
dangerous voltages even if the inverter is inoperative. Wait at least five minutes to allow the
unit to discharge after switching off the line supply before carrying out any installation work.
It is strictly prohibited for any mains disconnection to be performed on the motor-side of the
system; any disconnection of the mains must be performed on the mains-side of the
Inverter.
When connecting the line supply to the Inverter, make sure that the terminal case of the
motor is closed.
During operation and for a short time after switching-off the Inverter, the surfaces of the
Inverter can reach a high temperature.
This equipment is capable of providing internal motor overload protection according to
