Safety information

Not observing fundamental safety instructions and residual risks
Not observing fundamental safety instructions and residual risks listed in Chapter 1 can
result in accidents with severe injuries or death.
• Comply with the fundamental safety instructions.
• When assessing the risk, take into account remaining risks.
High leakage currents when the protective conductor in the line feeder cable is
interrupted
The drive components conduct a high leakage current via the protective conductor.
Touching conductive parts when the protective conductor is interrupted can result in death
or serious injury.
• Ensure that the external protective conductor satisfies at least one of the following
Fire due to inadequate ventilation clearances
Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating with a risk for personnel through
smoke development and fire. This can also result in increased downtime and reduced
service lives for Motor Modules.
• Observe the ventilation clearances above, below, and in front of the Motor Modules,
Fire due to overheating when the total length of the power cables is exceeded
Overheating and a fire can result when the total length of the power cables is exceeded.
• Ensure that the total length of the power cables (motor feeder cables and DC link cables)

WARNING
WARNING
conditions:
– It has been installed so that it is protected against mechanical damage.
– For an individual core, it has a cross-section of at least 10 mm² Cu.
– If it is a conductor of a multi-conductor cable, it has a cross-section of at least 2.5
mm² Cu.
– It has a second protective conductor in parallel with the same cross-section.
– It complies with the local regulations for equipment with increased leakage current.
Cables laid within control cabinets or closed machine housings are considered to be
