1. General
AC motor controls, depending on their degree of protection, may
have exposed live, uninsulated, and possibly also moving or
rotating parts, as well as hot surfaces.
Removal of the protective covers, improper use, inproper instal-
lation or misoperation, can be dangerous and result in serious
personal injury and or damage to property.
This document must be read in its entirety before attemping to
apply votlage to the KEB COMBIVERT F5.
All functions of, installation and commissioning as well as
maintenance are to be carried out by skilled or certified technical
personnel (Observe IEC 364 or CENELEC HD 384 or DIN VDE
0100 and IEC 664 or DIN/VDE 0110, NEC and all national and
local codes and accident prevention rules!).
For the purposes of these basic safety instructions, ”skilled techni-
cal personnel“ means persons who are familiar with the installation,
mounting, commissioning and operation of the product and have
the qualifications needed for the performance of their functions.
2. Intended use
AC motor controls are components designed for installation and
operation in electrical installations or machinery.
In case of installation in machinery, commissioning of the drive
converter (i.e. the starting of normal operation) is prohibited until
the machinery has been proved to conform to the provisions of
the directive 89/392/EEC (Machinery Safety Directive - MSD).
Account is to be taken of EN 60204.
Commissioning (i.e. the starting of normal opertion) is admissible
only where conformity with the EMC directive (89/336/EEC) has
been established. The KEB COMBIVERT F5 motor controls meet
the requirements of the low-voltage directive 73/23/EEC. They are
subject to the harmonized standards of the series DIN EN 50178/
VDE 0160 in conjunction with EN 60439-1/ VDE 0660, part 500,
and EN 60146/ VDE 0558.
The technical data as well as information concerning the sup-
ply conditions shall be taken from the name plate and from the
documentation and shall be strictly observed.
3. Transport, storage
The instructions for transport, storage and proper use shall be
complied with.
The climatic conditions shall be in conformity with EN 50178.
Safety and operating instructions for
AC motor controls

Important, please read
1. Saftey and Operating Instructions
4. Installation
The installation and cooling of the unit shall be in accordance with
the specifications contained with in this document.
The unit shall be protected against excessive force or strain. In
particular, no components must be bent or isolating distances
altered in the course of transportation or handling. No contact shall
be made with electronic components and contacts.
Drive converters contain electrostatic sensitive components which
are can be damaged through improper use or handling. Electric
components must not be mechanically damaged or destroyed
(potential health risks).
5. Electrical connection
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Allways disconnect the supply volt-
age before installing or servicing the KEB COMIBIVERT F5 motor
control! Wait five minutes for the before attempting to change any
connections as the internal DC bus must first dicharge.
If it is necessary to work with the voltage supply turned on,
always comply with the applicable national accident prevention
rules (ex O.S.H.A.).
The electrical installation shall be carried out in accordance with
the relevant requirements (NEC and local codes). For further
information, see documentation.
Instructions for installation in accordance with EMC requirements,
like sheilding, grounding, location of filters and wiring, are inculded
in the documentation. They must always be complied with. Mo-
tor controls bearing a CE marking do not preclude adherence to
proper EMC installation requirements. Observance of the allowed
values required by EMC law is the responsibility of the designer
or manufacturer of the installation or machine.
6. Operation
Installations which include motor controls shall be equipped with
additional control and protective devices in accordance with the
relevant applicable safety requirements. Changes to the motor
control by means of the operating software are admissible.
After disconnection of the motor control from the supply voltage,
live parts and power terminals must not be touched because DC
BUS capacitors may still be energized. Alwyas follow the printed
warnings on the unit.
During operation, all covers and doors shall be kept closed.
7. Maintenance and servicing
The manufacturer’s documentation shall be followed.
KEEP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE!
