3. Safety Information
3.1. About this manual
Read carefully this chapter to raise your awareness of potential risks and hazards when working with the Earth
Servo Drive.
To ensure maximum safety in operating the Earth Servo Drive, it is essential to follow the procedures included in
this guide. This information is provided to protect users and their working area when using the Earth Servo Drive, as
well as other hardware that may be connected to it. Please read this chapter carefully before starting the
installation process.
3.2. Warnings
The following statements should be considered to avoid serious injury to those individuals performing the
procedures and/or damage to the equipment:
To prevent the formation of electric arcs, as well as dangers to personnel and electrical contacts, never
connect/disconnect the Earth Servo Drive while the power supply is on.
Disconnect the Earth Servo Drive from all power sources before proceeding with any possible wiring change.
After turning off the power and disconnecting the equipment power source, wait at least 10 seconds before
touching any parts of the controller that are electrically charged or hot.
3.3. Precautions
The following statements should be considered to avoid serious injury to those individuals performing the
procedures and/or damage to the equipment:
The Earth does not have a housing. Take due precautions to prevent ESD discharge when touching the board
or mounting it to the final system.
The Earth Servo Drive components temperature may exceed 100 ºC during operation.
Some components become electrically charged during and after operation.
The power supply connected to this controller should comply with the parameters specified in this
document.
When connecting the Earth Servo Drive to an approved power source, do so through a line that is separate
from any possible dangerous voltages, using the necessary insulation in accordance with safety standards.
Motion control equipment can move rapidly with very high forces. Unexpected motion may occur especially
during product commissioning. Keep clear of any operational machinery and never touch them while they
are working.
Do not make any connections to any internal circuitry. Only connections to designated connectors are
allowed.
All service and maintenance must be performed by qualified personnel.
Before turning on the Earth Servo Drive, check that all safety precautions have been followed, as well as the
installation procedures.
