2.2 Use for the intended purpose
WARNING
Risk of death and material damage as a result of incorrect use
There is a risk of death, serious injury and/or material damage when direct drives or their
components are used for a purpose for which they were not intended.
•
Only use the motors for industrial or commercial plants and systems.
• If, in an exceptional case, the motors are not used in industrial or commercial plants and
systems, then ensure that increased requirements (e.g. regarding touch protection) are
complied with.
•
Do not install the motors in hazardous zones if the motors have not been expressly and
explicitly designed and authorized for this purpose. Carefully observe any special
additional notes provided.
• Only use direct drives and their components for applications that Siemens has explicitly
specified.
•
Protect the motors against dirt and contact with aggressive substances.
• Ensure that the installation conditions comply with the rating plate specifications and the
condition specifications contained in this documentation. Where relevant, take into
account deviations regarding approvals or country-specific regulations.
•
Contact your local Siemens office if you have any questions relating to correct use.
• If you wish to use special versions and design versions whose technical details vary
from the motors described in this document, then you must contact your local Siemens
office.
WARNING
Danger to life for wearers of active implants due to magnetic and electrical fields
Electric motors pose a danger to people with active medical implants, e.g. cardiac
stimulators, who come close to the motors.
•
If you are affected, keep a minimum distance of 800 mm from the motors (tripping
threshold for static magnetic fields of 0.5 mT according to Directive 2013/35/EU).
