2.5 Safety instructions for the ILM-E servo kit
DANGER
Danger of death by powerful magnetic fields
The life of persons with passive or active implants such as pacemakers, defibrillators, insu-
lin pumps etc. is put at risk if they stand in the vicinity of the ILM-E servo kit.
►
Make sure that no persons who could possibly be affected by powerful magnetic fields
are able to approach the ILM-E servo kit. They must maintain a safe distance of at least
2 m.
►
Instruct persons in the vicinity of the potential risk.
►
Attach warning instructions, stating POWERFUL MAGNETIC FIELDS at the installation
area and storage location.
—
The rotors of the ILM-E servo kit will attract other magnetic materials. The forces of
attraction can be so great that the magnets of the servo kit splinter on impact and
tiny fragments fly into the eyes.
►
Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes until you have finished installing the
ILM-E servo kit.
—
If the ILM-E servo kit is operated below the specified temperature, the magnets can
become detached from the rotor and fly around due to thermal stressing of the
adhesive.
►
Always operate the ILM-E servo kit within the specified temperature range.
—
If the ILM-E servo kit operating voltage is too high, it will exceed the maximum
permitted rotational speed. There is a risk of parts becoming detached and flying
around.
►
Always operate the ILM-E servo kit within the specified voltage and speed
ranges.
—
The electromagnetic interference (EMI) emitted by the ILM-E servo kit is negligible in
nominal operation. However it is not possible to entirely exclude the possibility that
it will affect electrical devices.
—
Fast acceleration of the ILM-E servo kit rotor can cause an inadequately secured
ILM-E servo kit to move suddenly and be flung out of its original position.
—
The drive train that is connected to the ILM-E servo kit must be designed for the
maximum rotational speed of the ILM-E servo kit, otherwise the drive train may be
damaged or crack.
