General Information
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or incorrect
installation or adjustment of the optional parameters of the equipment or from mismatching the variable speed drive
with the motor.
The contents of this guide are believed to be correct at the time of printing. In the interests of commitment to a
policy of continuous development and improvement, the manufacturer reserves the right to change the
specification of the product or its performance, or the content of the guide without notice.
All rights reserved. No parts of this guide may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electrical
or mechanical including, photocopying, recording or by an information storage or retrieval system, without

Environmental Statement
Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing operations and of
its products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental Management System (EMS)
which is certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further information on the EMS, our Environment Policy
and other relevant information is available on request, or can be found at www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save energy and
(through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and scrap throughout their long
working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental effects far outweigh the negative impacts of
product manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they must not be discarded but should
instead be recycled by a specialist recycler of electronic equipment. Recyclers will find the products easy to
dismantle into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can be separated
without the use of tools, while other parts are secured with conventional fasteners. Virtually all parts of the product
are suitable for recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden crates, while
smaller products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high-recycled fibre content. If not re-
used, these containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the protective film and bags from wrapping product,
can be recycled in the same way. Control Techniques' packaging strategy prefers easily recyclable materials of
low environmental impact, and regular reviews identify opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation and best
practice.
Firmware Statement
This option module is supplied with the latest firmware version. When retro-fitting to an existing system,
all firmware versions should be verified to confirm the same functionality as option modules of the same type
already present. This also applies to products returned from a Control Techniques Service Centre or Repair
Centre. If there is any doubt please contact the supplier of the product.
The firmware version of the option module can be identified by looking at Pr MM.002 where MM is the relevant
menu number for the option module slot being used. See Pr MM.002 description later in this manual for more
information. The firmware version takes the form of ww.xx.yy.zz seen in MM.002.
REACH legislation
EC Regulation 1907/2006 on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals (REACH)
requires the supplier of an article to inform the recipient if it contains more than a specified proportion of any
substance which is considered by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to be a Substance of Very High
Concern (SVHC) and is therefore listed by them as a candidate for compulsory authorisation.
For current information on how this requirement applies in relation to specific Control Techniques products, please
approach your usual contact in the first instance. Control Techniques position statement can be viewed at:
