Safety Information
machine meets the applicable standards.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
When working on live drive controllers, applicable national safety regulations must be observed. The
electrical installation must be carried out according to the appropriate regulations (e.g. cable cross-
sections, fuses, protective earth [PE] connection). While this document does make recommendations
in regards to these items, national and local codes must be adhered to.
Integral solid state protection does not provide branch circuit protection. Branch circuit protection
must be provided in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any additional local codes. The
use of fuses or circuit breakers is the only approved means for branch circuit protection.
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 compliance with the required limit values
demanded by EMC legislation.
APPLICATION
The drive must not be used as a safety device for machines where there is a risk of personal injury or
material damage. Emergency Stops, over-speed protection, acceleration and deceleration limits, etc
must be made by other devices to ensure operation under all conditions.
The drive does feature many protection devices which are aimed at protecting the drive and the driven
equipment by generating a fault and shutting the drive and motor down by removing power. Mains
power variances can also result in shutdown of the drive. When the fault condition disappears or is
cleared, the drive can be configured to automatically restart, it is the responsibility of the user, OEM
and/or integrator to ensure that the drive is configured for safe operation.
