Safety information
Lenze controllers

l
EDK82EVXXX EN 2.0
Installation
The controllers must be installed and cooled according to the regulations given in the
documentation.
Ensure proper handling and avoid mechanical stress. Do not bend any components and do not
change any insulation distances during transport or handling. Do not touch any electronic
components and contacts.
Controllers contain electrostatically sensitive components which can easily be damaged by
inappropriate handling. Do not damage or destroy any electrical components since this might
endanger your health!
Electrical connection
When working on live drive controllers, the applicable national regulations for the prevention of
accidents (e.g. VBG 4) must be observed.
The electrical installation must be carried out according to the appropriate regulations (e.g. cable
cross-sections, fuses, PE connection). Additional information can be obtained from the
documentation.
The documentation contains information about installation in compliance with EMC (shielding,
grounding, filters and cables). These notes must also be observed for CE-marked controllers. The
manufacturer of the system or machine is responsible for the compliance with the required limit
values demanded by the EMC legislation.
Operation
Systems including controllers must be equipped with additional monitoring and protection devices
according to the corresponding standards (e.g. technical equipment, regulations for the prevention
of accidents, etc.). If necessary, adapt the controllers to your application. Please observe the
corresponding information given in the Instructions.
After the controller has been disconnected from the supply voltage, live components and power
connection must not be touched immediately since capacitors could be charged. Please observe
the corresponding notes on the controller.
All covers and doors must be closed during operation.
Note for UL-approved systems with integrated controllers: UL warnings are notes which apply
to UL systems. The documentation contains special information about UL.
Safe standstill
-1-
Variant V004 of the controller series 9300 and 9300 vector, variant x4x of the controller series 8200
vector and axis module ECSxAxxx support the function ” Safe standstill” , protection against
unintentional restart, according to the requirements of Appendix I, No. 1.2.7 of the EC Directive
” Machinery” 98/37/EC, DIN EN 954-1 category 3 and DIN EN 1037. It is absolutely necessary to
observe the information about the function ” Safe standstill” in the corresponding documentation
and instructions.
Maintenance and servicing
The controllers do not require any maintenance, if the application conditions prescribed are
observed.
In operating areas with polluted ambient air, the cooling surfaces of the controller can get dirty or
the cooling openings can block. Under these conditons a regular cleaning of the cooling surfaces
and cooling openings is essential. Do not use sharp or pointed objects for this purpose!
Disposal
Recycle metals and plastics. Dispose of printed circuit board assemblies according to the state of
the art.
The product-specific safety and application notes in these Instructions must also be observed!
