Parker AC10 series, Quick Start Manual

Page: 5 / 60

Safety
Where there is conflict between EMC and Safety requirements, personnel safety shall always take
precedence.
• Never perform high voltage resistance checks on the wiring without first disconnecting
the drive from the circuit being tested.
• While ensuring ventilation is sufficient, provide guarding and /or additional safety
systems to prevent injury or damage to equipment.
• All control and signal terminals are SELV, i.e. protected by double insulation. Ensure all
external wiring is rated for the highest system voltage.
• All exposed metalwork in the Inverter is protected by basic insulation and bonded to a
safety earth.
• When replacing a drive in an application and before returning to use, it is essential that
all user defined parameters for the product’s operation are correctly installed.
• Thermal sensors contained within the motor must have at least basic insulation.
• RCDs are not recommended for use with this product but, where their use is
mandatory, only Type B RCDs should be used.
• The AC10 series is not a safety component or safety related product.
EMC
• In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case
supplementary mitigation measures may be required.
• This equipment contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive parts. Observe static
control precautions when handling, installing and servicing this product.
• This is a product of the restricted sales distribution class according to IEC 61800-3. It
is designated as “professional equipment” as defined in EN61000-3-2. Permission of the
supply authority shall be obtained before connection to the low voltage supply.
WARNING!
–
Control Unit Removal / Fitting
Isolate (disconnect) supply before plugging or unplugging control unit to the power stack.
CAUTION!
Application Risk
•
The specifications, processes and circuitry described herein are for guidance only
and may need to be adapted to the user’s specific application. We can not guarantee the
suitability of the equipment described in this Manual for individual applications.
Risk Assessment
Under fault conditions, power loss or unintended operating conditions, the drive may not
operate as intended. In particular:
• Stored energy might not discharge to safe levels as quickly as suggested, and can still
be present even though the drive appears to be switched off
• The motor's direction of rotation might not be controlled
• The motor speed might not be controlled
• The motor might be energized
A drive is a component within a drive system that may influence its operation or
effects under a fault condition. Consideration must be given to:
• Stored energy • Supply disconnects • Sequencing logic
