Startup/operation
Observe the safety notes in the chapters "Startup" (→
31) in the documentation.
Make sure that any existing transport protection is removed.
Do not deactivate monitoring and protection devices of the machine or system even
for a test run.
Depending on the degree of protection, products may have live, uninsulated, and
sometimes moving or rotating parts, as well as hot surfaces during operation.
Additional preventive measures may be required for applications with increased haz-
ard potential. Be sure to check the effectiveness of the protection devices after every
modification.
In the event of deviations from normal operation, switch the product off. Possible devi-
ations are increased temperatures, noise, or vibration, for example. Determine the
cause. Contact SEW‑EURODRIVE if necessary.
When the device is switched on, dangerous voltages are present at all power connec-
tions as well as at any connected cables and terminals. This is also the case even if
the product is inhibited.
An electric arc may occur when plug-in connections are disconnected or connected
while voltage is applied (e.g. connection between drive and control). Observe the fol-
lowing to avoid risk of injury, risk of electric shock and damage to property:
•
Ensure that the product is de-energized before disconnecting and connecting the
plug-in connections.
The fact that the operation LED and other display elements are no longer illuminated
does not indicate that the product has been disconnected from the supply system and
no longer carries any voltage.
Cover unused connections with the supplied protection caps during operation.
Mechanical blocking or internal safety functions of the product can cause the power to
interrupt. Removing the cause of the problem or performing a reset can result in an
automatic restart of the plant. If, for safety reasons, this is not permitted for the drive-
controlled machine, first disconnect the product from the supply system and then start
troubleshooting.
Risk of burns: The surface temperature of the product can exceed 60 °C during opera-
tion. Do not touch the product during operation. Let the product cool down before
touching it.
