Warnings
1
Internal components and P.C.Bs are at mains potential when the RVS-
AX is connected to mains. This voltage is extremely dangerous and will
cause death or severe injury if contacted.
2
When RVS-AX is connected to mains, even if start command has not
been issued and motor is stopped, full voltage may appear on starter’s
output and motor’s terminals.
Therefore, for isolation purposes it is required to connect an isolation
device upstream to the RVS-AX.
3
The starter must be properly grounded to ensure correct operation, safety
and to prevent damage.
4
Check that Power Factor capacitors are not connected to the output side
of the soft starter.
5
Do not interchange line and load connections
