LOW VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE AND
EN50178:
The following requirements must be met to ensure compliance with the Low
Voltage Directive and EN50178:
Electronic drives contain electrostatic sensitive devices that can be
damaged when handled improperly. Qualified personnel must follow
ESD protection measures. For example: wear grounded heel and wrist
straps when contacting drive.
The climatic conditions shall be in accordance with EN 50178 climatic
class: Type B, temperature and relative humidity: Class 3K3.
The drives shall be installed in an environment of Pollution Degree 2 or
better.
TheP7000 drives are not considered portable and are to be mounted in
the intended manner in a motor/control cabinet having adequate
strength and thickness with acceptable spacings for the end product
classification accessible by qualified personnel only. The
enclosure/cabinet shall meet at least the requirements of Protective
Type IP2X according to 5.1 of EN 60529. If the top surface of the
enclosure/cabinet is easily accessible it shall meet at least the
requirements of the Protective Type IP4X.
Care shall be taken to ensure that the larger device or enclosure that
accommodates the built-in device provides protection against direct
contact.
The P7000 drives may be erected in closed electrical operating areas if
a protection against direct contact is available or assigned for by
means of obstacles and/or a distance according to IEC 364-4-412.3
and IEC 364-4-412.4.
Follow IEC 536-2 and IEC 1140 for installation protection against
electric shock.
Installation shall be performed in accordance with local electric codes,
local accident prevention rules, EN 50178 and EN 61800-3.
Never connect or disconnect any drive connectors or terminals while
the power is switched on.
The P700 drives are designed to Protective Class I.
After disconnecting the drive from the AC mains be sure to wait at least
2 minutes before removing the drive’s cover and exposing live parts.
To be safe, measure the electrical contact points with a meter before
touching the equipment.
The finished installation shall comply with the requirements of the IEC
364-4-41 series of standards.
The cables and leads (except the protective conductors) used in the
erection of the P7000 in an installation which are accessible for contact
without opening or removing a barrier or are laid on extraneous
conductive parts shall have double or reinforced insulation between the
core and the surface or shall be surrounded by a metal screen having
a satisfactory current-carrying capacity in the event of a short-circuit
between the core and the screen.
