1 Safety information
1.1 Warnings, Cautions and Notes
1.2 Important safety information. Hazards. Competence of
designers and installers
This guide applies to products which control electric motors either directly (drives) or indirectly
(controllers, option modules and other auxiliary equipment and accessories). In all cases the hazards
associated with powerful electrical drives are present, and all safety information relating to drives and
associated equipment must be observed.
Specific warnings are given at the relevant places in this guide.
Drives and controllers are intended as components for professional incorporation into complete
systems. If installed incorrectly they may present a safety hazard. The drive uses high voltages and
currents, carries a high level of stored electrical energy, and is used to control equipment which can
cause injury. Close attention is required to the electrical installation and the system design to avoid
hazards either in normal operation or in the event of equipment malfunction. System design,
installation, commissioning/start-up and maintenance must be carried out by personnel who have the
necessary training and competence. They must read this safety information and this guide carefully.
1.3 Responsibility
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the equipment is installed correctly with regard to
all instructions given in this guide. They must give due consideration to the safety of the complete
system, so as to avoid the risk of injury both in normal operation and in the event of a fault or of
reasonably foreseeable misuse.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent or
incorrect installation of the equipment.
1.4 Compliance with regulations
The installer is responsible for complying with all relevant regulations, such as national wiring
regulations, accident prevention regulations and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) regulations.
Particular attention must be given to the cross-sectional areas of conductors, the selection of fuses
or other protection, and protective ground (earth) connections.
This guide contains instructions for achieving compliance with specific EMC standards.
All machinery to be supplied within the European Union in which this product is used must comply
with the following directives:
