Orientalmotor FE100 Operating Manual page 7

• Do not disassemble or modify the inverter. Doing so may result in electric shock,
injury or damage to the equipment. Should you require inspection or repair of
internal parts, please contact the Oriental Motor branch or sales office you
purchased your inverter from.
General
• Do not use the inverter with settings beyond their specified ranges. Doing so may
result in electric shock, injury or damage to the equipment.
• Do not let conductive foreign materials (such as shavings, pins and wire offcuts)
enter the inverter. They may cause fire.
• Do not install or operate the inverter if the inverter is damaged or any of its parts
is missing. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock, injury or damage to the
equipment.
• Do not touch the inverter while operating or for a sufficient period after the
operation was stopped. The inverter is very hot while operating and immediately
after stopping, so touching the inverter in these conditions may result in skin
burn(s).
Installation
• Install the inverter on incombustible material, such as metal. Failure to do so may
result in fire.
• If the inverter is installed in a distribution panel, install a cooling fan and make
sure the ambient temperature does not rise above 50 °C. Failure to do so may
cause the inverter to overheat, resulting in fire or other accident.
• Before operating the motor, always confirm that it is securely affixed. Failure to
do so may result in damage to the equipment.
Connection and wiring
• Use of certain devices and equipment, such as large-output motors, solenoids,
high-frequency power supplies and electric welders, may cause the inverter to
malfunction. Therefore, do not share the power supply to the inverter with any of
these devices and equipment. When wiring the inverter, also separate its signal
line from power lines. Failure to observe these instructions may result in injury or
damage to the equipment.
• Confirm that the rated voltage of the inverter's input power supply corresponds to
the voltage of the AC power source. If these voltages are different, fire, injury or
damage to the equipment may result.
• Securely tighten the screws of the main circuit terminals and I/O signal terminals.
Failure to do so may result in fire, electric shock or damage to the equipment.
• Do not connect or disconnect the inverter cables or connectors while the inverter
is receiving power. Doing so may result in electric shock, injury or damage to the
equipment.
