2.11 Safety information
● Before starting any work on the encoTRive, the motor must be properly
isolated in accordance with the 5 safety rules according to DIN VDE 0105.
As well as the main circuits, attention must also be paid to any additional
or auxiliary circuits.
The measures prescribed in DIN VDE 0105 may only be withdrawn when
the assembly work on the motor is completely finished.
● As well as the general requirement of care, attention must be paid to the
risk of hair or items of clothing being caught in the equipment.
● Take care when touching the encoTRive. Temperatures of over 100°C can
occur on the surface of the encoTRive during operation. The temperature
must therefore be checked before work can be carried out again on the
encoTRive after operation.
● Risk of fire!
Before assembly, it must be ensured that an adequately large distance is
maintained from inflammable materials and cables laid in the immediate
vicinity. Furthermore, it must be ensured that heat losses can be ade-
quately dissipated.
● Protective devices must never be rendered inoperative, even during test-
ing.
● Check the direction of rotation of the encoTRive in the uncoupled state
before commissioning.
● Ensure that dangerous torques cannot occur on the encoTRive due to
commissioning or test adjustments in order to prevent damage to persons
or materials.
● Suitable measures must be taken to prevent limbs being trapped by mov-
ing actuators.
● All work on the encoTRive must be carried out in accordance with the
information and instructions given in this Safety Manual.
● Ensure that no dangerous torques are produced by switching off equip-
ment, machines and systems.
● When electrical components are used in complex systems, unpredictable
functions may occur during normal operation of the system if the electrical
parts of the system are not properly designed, or due to faulty compo-
nents. Proper design in accordance with the relevant technical regulations
is the responsibility of the system designer and the user.
● When operated in residential environments, the encoTRive can cause
high-frequency interference, which may make suppression measures nec-
essary.
● When the encoTRive is installed in a vertical position, it must be ensured
that no liquids can get into the bearing.
