Safety measures for service per‐
Construction notes
During operation of electro motors, electro-magnetic fields on live-parts and
connection lines of these motors occur. The secondary parts of synchronous
linear motors and rotors of synchronous kit motors equipped with permanent
magnets are not shielded magnetically and create continuously a static mag‐
netic field (constant field), even in non-activated condition. This is clearly sig‐
naled by a warning label, which is stuck on the outside of every package with
open permanent-magnet parts.
Observing all regulations and safety measures, involves no risk of danger in
the case of IndraDyn synchronous motors with open permanent magnet parts
(rotor or secondary parts). Ferromagnetic chips are not attracted at a dis‐
tance of approximately 100 mm from the surface of open permanent magnet‐
ic parts. Despite this, we recommend persons with implants to keep a safety
distance of 1 meter (1,000 mm) minimum.
Depending from operation place, transport path and storage of the machine
or its parts, regional regulations and laws are valid which must be observed
during constructing, transporting or operating the machine.
WARNING
Danger due to magnetic and electromagnetic fields on live
conductors or permanent magnets of electro motors.
Persons with active implanted medical devices or passive
metallic implants must keep away from these motor parts.
Access to areas, in which such drive components are moun‐
ted and operated, is not allowed for the named persons. It is
allowed after consulting a doctor, only.
Keep magnetic data carriers, credit cards, check cards and
identity cards with magnetic strips and all ferromagnetic parts
away from magnetic fields. It if forbidden to wear jewelry
made of ferromagnetic material during on the job.
Within the European Union (EU), the guideline 2004/40/EG specifies the min‐
sonal
imum requirements about protection of safety and health of employees from
danger due to electromagnetic and magnetic fields. For valid regulations and
guidance for machine manufacturers and users please refer to the following
public documents:
Standard EN 50499 (DE: DIN EN 50 499, DIN VDE 0808-499)
Standard EN 50527 (DE: DIN VDE 0848-3)
in Germany: acident prevention regulation BGV/GUV-V B11
This list does not lay claim to completeness. Machine manufacturers and ma‐
chine users must decide which regional regulations are valid and which safe‐
ty and occupational-safety measures for work within hazardous areas must
be adopted. Essentially are not the electromagnetic features of single ma‐
chine parts, but the effective overall exposures in electric, magnetic and elec‐
tromagnetic fields in specific working area.
When constructing the machine, provide suitable covers and protective
measures for safe machine operation.
