Safety information

1. General
During operation, drive controllers may have, according to their
type of protection, live, bare, in some cases also movable or
rotating parts as well as hot surfaces.
Non-authorized removal of the required cover, inappropriate
use, incorrect installation or operation, creates the risk of
severe injury to persons or damage to material assets.
Further information can be obtained from the documentation.
All operations concerning transport, installation, and
commissioning as well as maintenance must be carried out by
qualified, skilled personnel (IEC 364 and CENELEC HD 384 or
DIN VDE 0100 and IEC report 664 or DIN VDE 0110 and
national regulations for the prevention of accidents must be
observed).
According to this basic safety information qualified skilled
personnel are persons who are familiar with the erection,
assembly, commissioning, and operation of the product and
who have the qualifications necessary for their occupation.
2. Application as directed
Drive controllers are components which are designed for
installation in electrical systems or machinery.
When installing in machines, commissioning of the drive
controllers (i.e. the starting of operation as directed) is
prohibited until it is proven that the machine corresponds to the
regulations of the EC Directive
Directive); EN 60204 must be observed.
Commissioning (i.e. starting of operation as directed) is only
allowed when there is compliance with the EMC Directive
(89/336/EEC).
The drive controllers meet the requirements of the Low Voltage
Directive 73/23/EEC. The harmonized standards of the prEN
50178/ DIN VDE 0160 series together with EN 60439-1/DIN
VDE 0660 part 500 and EN 60146/DIN VDE 0558 are
applicable to drive controllers.
The technical data and information on the connection
conditions must be obtained from the nameplate and the
documentation and must be observed in all cases.
3. Transport, storage
Notes on transport, storage and appropriate handling must be
observed.
Climatic conditions must be observed according to prEN
50178.
The product-specific safety and application notes in these Operating Instructions must also be observed!

(to: Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC)
4. Erection
The devices must be erected and cooled according to the
regulations of the corresponding documentation.
The drive controllers must be protected from inappropriate
loads. Particularly during transport and handling, components
must not be bent and/or isolating distances must not be
changed. Touching of electronic components and contacts
must be avoided.
Drive
components which can easily be damaged by inappropriate
handling. Electrical components must not be damaged or
destroyed mechanically (health risks are possible!).
5. Electrical connection
When working on live drive controllers, the valid national
regulations for the prevention of accidents (e.g. VBG 4) must
be observed.
The electrical installation must be carried out according to the
appropriate regulations (e.g. cable cross-sections, fuses, PE
connection). More detailed information is included in the
documentation.
Notes concerning the installation in compliance with EMC -
such as screening, grounding, arrangement of filters and laying
of cables - are included in the documentation of the drive
controllers. These notes must also be observed in all cases for
drive controllers with the CE mark.The compliance with the
89/392/EEC (Machinery
required limit values demanded by the EMC legislation is the
responsibility of the manufacturer of the system or machine.
6. Operation
Systems where drive controllers are installed must be
equipped, if necessary, with additional monitoring and
protective devices according to the valid safety regulations,
e.g. law on technical tools, regulations for the prevention of
accidents, etc. Modifications of the drive controllers by the
operating software are allowed.
After disconnecting the drive controllers from the supply
voltage, live parts of the controller and power connections
must not be touched immediately, because of possibly
charged capacitors. For this, observe the corresponding labels
on the drive controllers.
During operation, all covers and doors must be closed.
7. Maintenance and servicing
The manufacturer's documentation must be observed.
The safety information must be preserved!
