Fundamental safety instructions
2.1 General safety instructions
Fire due to incorrect operation of the motor
When incorrectly operated and in the case of a fault, the motor can overheat resulting in fire
and smoke. This can result in severe injury or death. Further, excessively high temperatures
destroy motor components and result in increased failures as well as shorter service lives of
motors.
• Operate the motor according to the relevant specifications.
• Only operate the motors in conjunction with effective temperature monitoring.
• Immediately switch off the motor if excessively high temperatures occur.
Burns and thermal damage caused by hot surfaces
Temperatures above 100 °C may occur on the surfaces of motors, converters, and other drive
components.
Touching hot surfaces may result in burns. Hot surfaces may damage or destroy temperature
sensitive parts.
• Ensure that temperature-sensitive parts do not come into contact with hot surfaces.
• Mount drive components so that they are not accessible during operation.
Measures when maintenance is required:
• Allow drive components to cool off before starting any work.
• Use appropriate personnel protection equipment, e.g. gloves.
