General Precautions
General Precautions
!
ATTENTION:
This drive contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)
sensitive parts and assemblies. Static control precautions are required
when installing, testing, servicing or repairing this assembly. Component
damage may result if ESD control procedures are not followed. If you
are not familiar with static control procedures, reference A-B publication
8000-4.5.2, “Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage” or any other
applicable ESD protection handbook.
!
ATTENTION:
An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in
component damage or a reduction in product life. Wiring or application
errors, such as, undersizing the motor, incorrect or inadequate AC
supply, or excessive ambient temperatures may result in malfunction of
the system.
!
ATTENTION:
Only qualified personnel familiar with adjustable
frequency AC drives and associated machinery should plan or implement
the installation, start-up and subsequent maintenance of the system.
Failure to comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment
damage.
!
ATTENTION:
To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage
on the bus capacitors has discharged before performing any work on the
drive. Measure the DC bus voltage at the +DC & –DC terminals of the
Power Terminal Block (refer to the User Manual for location). The
voltage must be zero.
!
ATTENTION:
Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. DPI or
SCANport host products must not be directly connected together via
1202 cables. Unpredictable behavior can result if two or more devices
are connected in this manner.
!
ATTENTION:
An incorrectly applied or installed bypass system can
result in component damage or reduction in product life. The most
common causes are:
•
Wiring AC line to drive output or control terminals.
•
Improper bypass or output circuits not approved by Allen-Bradley.
•
Output circuits which do not connect directly to the motor.
•
Contact Allen-Bradley for assistance with application or wiring.
!
ATTENTION:
Loss of control in suspended load applications can
cause personal injury and/or equipment damage. Loads must always be
controlled by the drive or a mechanical brake. Parameters 600-611 are
designed for lifting/torque proving applications. It is the responsibility of
the engineer and/or end user to configure drive parameters, test any
lifting functionality and meet safety requirements in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
