Operating instructions
K3GA00-PV03-01
Translation of the original operating instructions
WARNING
Live terminals and connections even with device
switched off
Electric shock
→ Wait five minutes after disconnecting the voltage at all poles
before opening the device.
CAUTION
In the event of a fault, the rotor and the impeller will be
energized
The rotor and the impeller have basic insulation.
→ Do not touch the rotor and impeller once installed.
CAUTION
If control voltage or a stored speed set value is applied,
the motor will restart automatically, e.g. after a power
failure.
Risk of injury
→ Keep out of the device’s danger zone.# When working on
the device, switch off the line voltage and ensure that it
cannot be switched back on.
→ Wait until the device comes to a stop.
→ After working on the device, remove any tools or other
objects from the device.
1.5 Safety and protective features
DANGER
Protective device missing and protective device not
functioning
Without a protective device there is a risk of serious injury, for
instance if the hands reach or are sucked into the device during
operation.
→ Operate the device only with a fixed protective device and
guard grille.
→ The fixed protective device must be able to withstand the
kinetic energy of a fan blade that becomes detached at
maximum speed. There must not be any gaps which it is
possible to reach into with the fingers, for example.
→ The device is a built-in component. As the operator, you
are responsible for ensuring that the device is secured
adequately.
→ Stop the device immediately if you notice a missing or
ineffective protective device.
1.6 Electromagnetic radiation
NOTE
Electrical or electromagnetic interference after installing
the device in customer equipment.
→ Verify that the entire setup is EMC-compliant.
1.7 Mechanical movement
DANGER
Rotating device
Risk of injury to body parts coming into contact with the rotor or
the impeller.
→ Secure the device against accidental contact.
→ Before working on the system/machine, wait until all
parts have come to a standstill.
DANGER
Ejected parts
Missing protective devices may cause balancing weights or
broken fan blades to be ejected and cause injuries.
→ Take appropriate safety measures.
WARNING
Rotating device
Long hair and dangling items of clothing, jewelry and the like
can become entangled and be pulled into the device. Injuries
can result.
→ Do not wear any loose-fitting or dangling clothing or jewelry
while working on rotating parts.
→ Protect long hair with a cap.
1.8 Emissions
WARNING
Depending on the installation and operating conditions,
the sound pressure level may exceed 70 dB(A).
Risk of noise-induced hearing loss
→ Take appropriate technical safety measures.
→ Protect operating personnel with appropriate safety
equipment such as hearing protection.
→ Also observe the requirements of local agencies.
1.9 Hot surface
CAUTION
High temperature on electronics housing
Risk of burns
→ Ensure sufficient protection against accidental contact.
1.10 Transport
WARNING
Transporting the fan
Injuries from tipping or slipping
→ The fan is always to be transported with care and in its
original packaging. #If set down too hard or at an angle for
example, the impact can lead to bearing damage or
deformation of the frame or impeller. #It must be ensured that
the fans cannot tip over during transportation and handling.
→ Secure the fan(s) with appropriate equipment such as a
lashing strip so that nothing can slip or tip, especially when
stacking multiple fans. #Also make allowance for possible
wind forces.
1.11 Storage
WARNING
Storing the fan
Injuries from tipping or slipping
→ The fans must always be stored and handled so that they
cannot tip over.
→ Secure the fan(s) with appropriate equipment such as a
lashing strip so that nothing can slip or tip, especially when
stacking multiple fans.
→ Also take possible wind forces into consideration.
;
Store the device, partially or fully assembled, in a dry place,
protected against the weather and free from vibration, in the original
packaging in a clean environment.
