1.4.1 Intended Use

WARNING
FUNCTIONAL SAFETY-COMPLIANT USE
®
The VLT Plus Panel is a product in accordance with the
Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EG, but does not provide
safety-related control functionality in accordance with
Machine Safety Directive 2006/42/EG. CE declaration is
therefore related to EMC (2004/108/EG) and LV Directive.
Failure to take the necessary safety-related control
measures can result in death or serious injury.
•
The panel operator has to ensure the proper
use of the product, even when Safe Torque Off
(STO) functionality is used, for example for
ATEX-conform motor thermal protection. In this
case, the safety function is part of the approved
motor thermal protection, using the function as
appropriate energy cut-off.
•
Any other use of the safety functions is in sole
responsibility of the end user, including certifi-
cation, documentation, and so on.
•
Customized variants can differ and are not
subject to the Panel configurator products
description.
NOTICE
®
For VLT AutomationDrive FC 302, NO (Normal overload)
values are used for the design. Due to the 80% design
rule of EN 61439-2, design is adjusted for the HO (High
overload) use. Details are provided per power rating in
the relevant documents.
®
The VLT Plus Panel is designed to provide high shaft
performance on electrical motors along with extra features
(see chapter 1.4.2 Features).
Depending on configuration, the VLT
used in stand-alone applications or form part of a larger
appliance or installation.
It is intended to be used solely for the application it was
tailored to (see documentation provided with the VLT
Plus Panel).
The intended use of the frequency converter, as described
in the frequency converter documentation applies, and
must be observed.
®
The VLT Plus Panel is allowed for use in residential,
industrial, and commercial environments in accordance
with local laws, standards, and emission limits as described
in the documentation provided with the VLT

Optimised duct cooling
A dedicated option allows optimised installation of IP00
rated frequency converters in Rittal TS8 enclosures.
Therefore, the fan of the frequency converter is used for
forced air cooling of the backchannel. The exhaust air on
the top of the enclosure can be ducted outside a facility.
®
Plus Panel.
So, the heat losses from the backchannel are not
dissipated within the control room. Hence, the air-
conditioning requirements of the facility are not impacted.
