DANGER!
Fire hazard due to overload or sparking!
Fire hazards occur due to overloaded cables, electrical arcs, short circuits or sparking. Sparking
can occur with poorly serviced, contaminated conductor rails or if the installation does not comply
with the required tolerances.
Take the following measures:
→
Conduct electrical testing as prescribed.
→
Permissible current values must be observed.
→
Maintain tolerances during operation.
→
Do not remove the prescribed electrical safety devices and protective devices.
→
Do not store easily ignited materials near conductor rails.
→
Check, service and clean conductor rails regularly and as prescribed. See Section 12.
DANGER!
Risk of injury due to ensnarement or impact!
An ensnarement and/or impact with moving conductor rails (slip ring) or current collectors
connected to the machine and other components must be prevented.
→
Cordon off the work area.
→
Use caution when working in the vicinity of the danger zone, in particular if protective devices
(covers, enclosures, control devices, etc.) have been removed or deactivated.
→
Use caution when working in the vicinity of the danger zone, particularly below the conductor rail.
→
There is a risk of falling conductor rail system components if they have not been properly installed
or if operated under inappropriate operating conditions (e.g., environment that contains solvents).
→
Wear personal protective equipment!
CAUTION!
Before switching the system on!
→
Ensure that all installation work has been completed and all the components have been properly
installed.
→
Before each startup of the product or system, measure the insulation resistance (see MV0800-
0019) according to locally applicable technical standards, directives, and legal regulations.
→
Conduct electrical testing as locally prescribed.
→
Ensure adequate stability on the product/system for the commissioning engineer.
DANGER!
Risk of death due to electrical shock!
Contact with components carrying electrical power can lead to death or severe injury due to electrical
shock. Danger of injury due to shock reactions, falling or being thrown across the room due to electrical
shock.
→
Customer-side grounding of metallic components must be present.
→
Customer-side protective devices must be present.
