Any resonant operation of the bending actuators should
generally be avoided. Due to self-heating effects, the specified
operating temperature range of the actuator could be exceeded
rapidly and irreparable damage may occur.
Power off the actuator immediately if you hear or see
any resonant behavior. For the unloaded resonant
frequency see the documentation of the actuator.
If an E-614 OEM module is operated without a housing, live
parts will be accessible. Touching the live parts can result in
minor injury. Electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic fields
emitted by live parts can disturb the E-614 OEM module and/or
the environment.
Only operate the E-614 OEM module when it is installed
in a shielded housing that securely encloses all live
parts and fulfills the requirements of electromagnetic
compatibility.
Since parts of the circuit will store charge, precautions
must also be taken when the E-614 OEM module is not
powered. After switching off the E-614 OEM module,
wait a minute before you touch parts of the E-614 OEM
module to be sure that any residual voltage has
dissipated.
If the E-651 benchtop device is operated with an open housing,
live parts are accessible. Touching the live parts can result in
minor injury.
Only open the E-651 housing when you are authorized
and have the corresponding qualifications.
Before opening the housing, remove the E-651 from the
power source by pulling the power plug.
When operating with an open housing, do not touch any
components in the housing aside from the adjustment
elements mentioned in this user manual.
The E-651 / E-614 contains electrostatic-sensitive devices
(ESD) that can be damaged if handled improperly.
Avoid touching assemblies, pins and PCB traces.
Before you touch the E-651 / E-614, discharge yourself
of any electric charges, e.g., by wearing an antistatic
wrist strap.
Only handle and store the E-651 / E-614 in
environments that dissipate existing static charges to
earth in a controlled way and prevent electrostatic
