2 Safety
2.1.2 Safety Regulations
1. The frequency converter must be disconnected from mains if repair work is to be carried out. Check that the mains supply has been disconnected
and that the necessary time has passed before removing motor and mains plugs.
2. The [STOP/RESET] key on the LCP of the frequency converter does not disconnect the equipment from mains and is thus not to be used as a
2
safety switch.
3. Correct protective earthing of the equipment must be established, the user must be protected against supply voltage, and the motor must be
protected against overload in accordance with applicable national and local regulations.
4. The earth leakage currents are higher than 3.5 mA.
5. Protection against motor overload is not included in the factory setting. If this function is desired, set par. 1-90
data value ETR trip or data value ETR warning. Note: The function is initialised at 1.16 x rated motor current and rated motor frequency. For
the North American market: The ETR functions provide class 20 motor overload protection in accordance with NEC.
6. Do not remove the plugs for the motor and mains supply while the frequency converter is connected to mains. Check that the mains supply has
been disconnected and that the necessary time has passed before removing motor and mains plugs.
7. Please note that the frequency converter has more voltage inputs than L1, L2 and L3, when load sharing (linking of DC intermediate circuit) and
external 24 V DC have been installed. Check that all voltage inputs have been disconnected and that the necessary time has passed before
commencing repair work.
2.1.3 Warning against Unintended Start
1. The motor can be brought to a stop by means of digital commands, bus commands, references or a local stop, while the frequency converter
is connected to mains. If personal safety considerations make it necessary to ensure that no unintended start occurs, these stop functions are
not sufficient.
2. While parameters are being changed, the motor may start. Consequently, the stop key [STOP/RESET] must always be activated; following which
data can be modified.
3. A motor that has been stopped may start if faults occur in the electronics of the frequency converter, or if a temporary overload or a fault in
the supply mains or the motor connection ceases.
Touching the electrical parts may be fatal - even after the equipment has been disconnected from mains.
Also make sure that other voltage inputs have been disconnected, such as external 24 V DC, load sharing (linkage of DC intermediate circuit), as well as
the motor connection for kinetic back up. Refer to
