1. Before Use 1. Important Safety Instructions Drives and controllers are intended as components for professional incorporation into complete systems. If installed incorrectly they may present a safety hazard. The drive uses high voltages and currents, carries a high level of stored electrical energy, and is used to control equipment which can cause injury.
Page 10
1. Before Use 1. Important Safety Instructions Stored Electrical Charge The drive contains capacitors that remain charged to a potentially lethal voltage after the AC supply has been disconnected. If the drive has been energized, the AC supply must be isolated at least ten minutes before work may continue.
Page 11
1. Before Use 1. Important Safety Instructions Adjusting parameters Some parameters have a profound effect on the operation of the drive. They must not be altered without careful consideration of the impact on the controlled system. Measures must be taken to prevent unwanted changes due to error or tampering. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) Installation instructions for a range of EMC environments are provided in an EMC datasheet.
