Operating instructions
W8E500-GJ03-01
Translation of the original operating instructions
→ Wait five minutes after disconnecting the voltage at all poles
before opening the device.
CAUTION
In the event of a fault, the rotor and the impeller will be
energized
The rotor and the impeller have basic insulation.
→ Do not touch the rotor and impeller once installed.
CAUTION
The motor restarts automatically when operating voltage
is applied, e.g. after a power failure.
Risk of injury
→ Keep out of the device's danger zone.
→ When working on the device, switch off the line voltage
and ensure that it cannot be switched back on.
→ Wait until the device comes to a stop.
→ Install the externally wired thermal overload protector in
the control circuit so that following a malfunction the motor
does not switch on again automatically after cooling off.
1.5 Safety and protective features
DANGER
Protective device missing and protective device not
functioning
Without a protective device there is a risk of serious injury, for
instance when reaching into the device during operation.
→ Operate the device only with a fixed protective device and
guard grille.
→ The fixed protective device must be able to withstand the
kinetic energy of a fan blade that becomes detached at
maximum speed. There must not be any gaps which it is
possible to reach into with the fingers, for example.
→ The device is a built-in component. As the operator, you
are responsible for ensuring that the device is secured
adequately.
→ Stop the device immediately if you notice a missing or
ineffective protective device.
1.6 Mechanical movement
DANGER
Rotating device
Risk of injury to body parts coming into contact with the rotor or
the impeller.
→ Secure the device against accidental contact.
→ Before working on the system/machine, wait until all
parts have come to a standstill.
WARNING
Rotating device
Long hair and dangling items of clothing, jewelry and the like
can become entangled and be pulled into the device. Injuries
can result.
→ Do not wear any loose-fitting or dangling clothing or jewelry
while working on rotating parts.
→ Protect long hair with a cap.
1.7 Emissions
WARNING
Depending on the installation and operating conditions,
the sound pressure level may exceed 70 dB(A).
Risk of noise-induced hearing loss
→ Take appropriate technical safety measures.
→ Protect operating personnel with appropriate safety
equipment such as hearing protection.
→ Also observe the requirements of local agencies.
1.8 Hot surface
CAUTION
High temperature on motor housing
Risk of burns
→ Ensure sufficient protection against accidental contact.
1.9 Transport
NOTE
Transporting the device
→ Transport the device in its original packaging only.
→ Secure the device so it cannot slip, e.g. by using a
lashing strip.
