• Only operate built-in devices with the control cabinet doors closed.
• Ensure that smoke can only escape via controlled and monitored paths.
Active implant malfunctions due to electromagnetic fields
Converters generate electromagnetic fields (EMF) in operation. Electromagnetic fields may
interfere with active implants, e.g. pacemakers. People with active implants in the immediate
vicinity of an converter are at risk.
• As the operator of an EMF-emitting installation, assess the individual risks of persons with
• Observe the data on EMF emission provided in the product documentation.
Symptomatic respiratory and skin reaction to chemicals
