Safety rules
Basic rules
Because of the wide range of possible applications, only the basic rules for electrical installation
are described in this section. At a minimum, you must comply with these basic rules to ensure
problem-free operation.
Rules for safe operation
In order to ensure safe operation of your equipment, implement the following measures,
adapting them to suit your conditions:
● An EMERGENCY STOP concept in accordance with the generally accepted rules of current
engineering practice (e.g. European standards EN 60204, EN 418, and similar).
● Additional measures for end position limiting of axes (e.g. hardware limit switches).
● Equipment and measures for protection of motors and power electronics in accordance
with the SINAMICS installation guidelines.
To identify hazards, we also recommend that a risk analysis be conducted on the entire
system in accordance with the basic safety requirements set out in Appendix 1 of the EU
Machinery Directive.
