Safety Instructions
Congratulations for choosing a product from CG Drives &
Automation!
Before you begin with installation, commissioning or
powering up the unit for the first time it is very important
that you carefully study this Instruction manual.
Following symbols can appear in this manual or on the
product itself. Always read these first before continuing.
Handling the AC drive
Installation, commissioning, demounting, taking
measurements, etc, of or on the AC drive may only be
carried out by personnel technically qualified for the task.
A number of national, regional and local regulations govern
handling, storage and installation of the equipment. Always
observe current rules and legislation.
Opening the AC drive
Always take adequate precautions before opening the AC
drive. Although the connections for the control signals and
the switches are isolated from the main voltage, do not
touch the control board when the AC drive is switched on.
Precautions to be taken with a
connected motor
If work must be carried out on a connected motor or on the
driven machine, the mains voltage must always be
disconnected from the AC drive first. Wait at least minutes
before starting work.
Earthing
The AC drive must always be earthed via the mains safety
earth connection.
Earth leakage current
Residual current device (RCD)
compatibility
This product cause a DC current in the protective
conductor.
Where a residual current device (RCD) is used
for protection in case of direct or indirect contact, only a
Type B RCD is allowed on the supply side of this product.
Use RCD of 300 mA minimum.
EMC Regulations
In order to comply with the EMC Directive, it is absolutely
necessary to follow the installation instructions. All
installation descriptions in this manual follow the EMC
Directive.
Mains voltage selection
The AC drive may be ordered for use with the mains voltage
range listed below.
FLD48: 230-480 V
FLD52: 440-525 V
FLD69: 500-690 V
NOTE: Additional information as an aid to avoid
problems.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in malfunction or damage to the AC drive.
Warning!
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in serious injury to the user in addition to
serious damage to the AC drive.
HOT SURFACE!
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in injury to the user.
WARNING!
Always switch off the mains voltage before
opening the AC drive and wait at least 7
minutes to allow the capacitors to discharge.
!
CAUTION!
This AC drive has an earth leakage current
which does exceed 3.5 mA AC. Therefore the
minimum size of the protective earth
conductor must comply with the local safety regulations
for high leakage current equipment which means that
according the standard IEC61800-5-1 the protective
earth connection must be assured by one of following
conditions:
PE conductor cross-sectional area shall for cable size
< 16 mm
2
(6 AWG) be equal to the used phase
conductors, for cable size above
16 mm
2
(6 AWG) but smaller or equal to 35mm
2
(2 AWG)
the PE conductor cross-sectional area shall be at least
16mm
2
(6 AWG). For cables >35 mm
2
(2 AWG) the PE
conductor cross-sectional area should be at least 50 %
of the used phase conductor.
When the PE conductor in the used cable type is not in
accordance with the above mentioned cross-sectional
area requirements, a separate PE conductor should be
used to establish this.
