Use As Directed; Prohibited Use - Kollmorgen SERVOSTAR 300 Safety Manual

2.2.2 Use as Directed

The servo amplifiers are components which are built into electrical equipment or
machines, and can only be used as integral components of such equipment.
The manufacturer of the machine must generate a risk assessment for the machine, and
take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements cannot cause injury or
damage to any person or property.
If the servo amplifiers are used in residential areas, or in business or commercial
premises, then additional filter measures must be implemented by the user.
Cabinet and Wiring
The servo amplifiers may only be operated in a closed switchgear cabinet, taking into
account the ambient conditions (➜ # 42) and the dimensions (➜ # 144). Ventilation or
cooling may be necessary to prevent enclosure ambient from exceeding 40°C (104°F).
Use only copper wire. Wire size may be determined from EN 60204 (or table 310-16 of the
NEC 60°C or 75°C column for AWG size).
Power supply
The SERVOSTAR 300 family of servo amplifiers (overvoltage category III acc. to EN
61800-5-1) can be connected directly to symmetrically earthed (grounded) three-phase
industrial mains supply networks [TN-system, TT-system with earthed (grounded) neutral
point, not more than 42,000 rms symmetrical amperes,110V-10%...230V+10% resped-
ctively 208V -10%...480V +10% maximum]. Connection to different mains supply net-
works see Instructions Manual.
Periodic overvoltages between outer conductor (L1, L2, L3) and housing of the servo amp-
lifier may not exceed 1000V (peak value). Transient overvoltages (< 50µs) between the
outer conductors may not exceed 1000V. Transient overvoltages (< 50µs) between outer
conductors and housing may not exceed 2000V.
Motors
The SERVOSTAR 300 family of servo amplifiers is only intended to drive specific brush-
less synchronous servomotors, with closed-loop control of torque, speed and/or position.
The rated voltage of the motors must be at least as high as the DC bus link voltage of the
servo amplifier.
Functional Safety
Consider the specific "use as directed" information (➜ # 46) when you use the safety
function STO.

2.2.3 Prohibited Use

Other use than that described in chapter "Use as directed" is not intended and can lead to per-
sonnel injuries and equipment damage. The servo amplifier may not be used with a machine
that does not comply with appropriate national directives or standards. The use of the servo
amplifier in the following environments is also prohibited:
potentially explosive areas
environments with corrosive and/or electrically conductive acids, alkaline solutions, oils,
vapors, dusts
ships or offshore applications
