Safety instructions
WARNING
Danger of the motor down due to incorrect transport and/or lifting
Due to incorrect transport and/or lifting, the motor can fall and cause death, severe injury
and/or damage to property.
•
Lifting devices, ground conveyors, and load suspension equipment must comply with
requirements.
•
The maximum capacity of the lifting equipment and the load suspension device must
correspond to the weight of the motor (see the rating plate).
•
Do not attach any additional loads to the lifting equipment.
•
To hoist the motor, use suitable cable-guidance or spreading equipment, particularly if
the motor is equipped with built-on assemblies.
•
The motor must not be lifted or transported by means of the power connector or signal
connector.
•
Do not stand in the slewing range of hoisting gear or under suspended loads.
WARNING
Danger to life from permanent magnet fields
Even when switched off, electric motors with permanent magnets pose a potential risk for
persons with heart pacemakers or implants if they are close to inverters/motors.
•
If you have a heart pacemaker or implant, keep a minimum distance of 300 mm.
•
When transporting or storing permanent magnet motors always use the original packing
materials with the warning labels attached.
•
Clearly mark the storage locations with the appropriate warning labels.
•
IATA regulations must be observed when transporting by air.
WARNING
Danger to life due to freely rotating parts
Contact with rotating parts can cause death or severe injury.
•
Do not touch any rotating parts.
•
Mount a cover cap or protective shroud over freely rotating parts.
WARNING
Danger to life due to unpredictable movements of the system
The system can perform unpredictable movements under load that can cause death or
severe injury.
•
De-energize the system before starting work.
•
Disconnect all loads from the system.
•
Secure the system against accidental reclosure.
