Safety Messages
DANGER
Heed the safety messages in this manual. The operating company is responsible for any injuries or equipment
damage resulting from failure to heed the safety messages in this manual. Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not connect or disconnect wiring while the power is on. Failure to comply will result in
death or serious injury. Before servicing, disconnect all power to the equipment. The internal capacitor remains charged even after
the power supply is turned off. The charge indicator LED will extinguish when the DC bus voltage is below 50 Vdc. To prevent
electric shock, wait for at least the time specified on the warning label, once all indicators are OFF, measure for unsafe voltages to
confirm the converter is safe prior to servicing. Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Sudden Movement Hazard. System may start unexpectedly when the unit is energized, resulting in death or
serious injury. Clear all personnel from the converter, drive, motor, and machine area before energizing. Secure covers, couplings,
shaft keys, and machine loads before energizing.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not attempt to modify or alter the converter in any way not explained in this manual.
Yaskawa is not responsible for any modification of the product made by the user. This product must not be modified. Failure to
comply could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not allow unqualified personnel to use equipment. Installation, maintenance,
inspection, and service must be performed only by authorized personnel familiar with installation, adjustment and maintenance of
AC converters. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not remove covers or touch circuit boards while the power is on. Failure to comply
could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Make sure the protective earthing conductor complies with technical standards and local
safety regulations. Because the leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA, IEC/EN/UL 61800-5-1 states that either the power supply must be
automatically disconnected in case of discontinuity of the protective earthing conductor or a protective earthing conductor with a
cross-section of at least 10 mm
2
(Cu) or 16 mm
2
(Al) must be used. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Use appropriate equipment for Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs). The converter
can cause a residual current with a DC component in the protective earthing conductor. Use a type B GFCI according to IEC/EN
60755, where a residual current operated protective or monitoring device is used for protection in case of direct or indirect contact.
Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Fire Hazard. Do not use an improper voltage source. Verify that the rated voltage of the converter matches the
voltage of the incoming power supply before applying power. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury by fire.
WARNING
Fire Hazard. Install adequate branch circuit protection according to applicable local codes and this Installation
Manual. The device is suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than 100,000 RMS symmetrical amperes, 240 Vac
maximum (200 V class) and 480 Vac maximum (400 V class), when protected by branch circuit protection devices specified in this
document. Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury by fire.
CAUTION
Crush Hazard. Do not carry the converter by the front cover. Failure to comply may result in minor or moderate
injury from the main body of the converter falling.
