Safety and application notes
for drive controllers
(according to: Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC)
1. General
During operation, drive controllers may have, according to
their type of protection, live, bare, in some cases also
movable or rotating parts as well as hot surfaces.
For non-authorized removal of the required cover, for
inappropriate use, for incorrect installation or operation, there
is the risk of severe personal injury or damage to material
assets.
Further information can be obtained from the documentation.
All operations concerning transport, installation, and
commissioning as well as maintenance must be carried out
by qualified, skilled personnel (IEC 364 and CENELEC HD
384 or DIN VDE 0100 and IEC report 664 or DIN VDE 0110
and national regulations for the prevention of accidents must
be observed).
Qualified skilled personnel according to this basic safety
information are persons who are familiar with the erection,
assembly, commissiong, and operation of the product and
who have the qualifications necessary for their occupation.
2. Application as directed
Drive controllers are components which are designed for
installation into electrical systems or machinery.
When installing into machines, commissioning of the drive
controllers (i.e. the starting of operation as directed) is
prohibited until it is proven that the machine corresponds to
the regulations of the EC Directive 89/392/EWG (Machinery
Directive); EN 60204 must be observed.
Commissioning (i.e. starting of operation as directed) is only
allowed when there is compliance with the EMC Directive
(89/336/EWG).
The drive controllers meet the requirements of the Low
Voltage Directive 73/23/EWG. The harmonized standards of
the prEN 50178/ DIN VDE 0160 series together with EN
60439-1/DIN VDE 0660 part 500 and EN 60146/DIN VDE
0558 are applicable to drive controllers.
The technical data and information about the connection
conditions must be obtained from the nameplate and the
documentation and must be observed in all cases.
3. Transport, storage
Notes on transport, storage and appropriate handling must be
observed.
Climatic conditions must be observed according to prEN
50178.
4. Erection
The devices must erected and cooled according to the
regulations of the corresponding documentation.
The drive controllers must be protected from inappropriate
loads. Particularly during transport and handling, components
must not be bent and/or insulation distances must not be
modified. Touching of electronic components and contacts
must be avoided.
Drive controllers contain electrostatically sensitive
components which can easily be damaged by inappropriate
handling. Electrical components must not be damaged or
destroyed mechanically (health risks are possible!).
5. Electrical connection
When working on live drive controllers, the valid national
regulations for the prevention of accidents (e.g. VBG 4) must
be observed.
The electrical installation must be carried out according to the
appropriate regulations (e.g. cable cross-sections, fuses, PE
connection). More detained information is included in the
documentation.
Notes concerning the installation in compliance with EMC -
like screening, grounding, arrangement of filters and laying of
cables - are included in the documentation of the drive
controllers. These notes must also be observed in all cases
for drive controllers with the CE mark. The compliance with
the required limit values demanded by the EMC legislation is
the responsibility of the manufacturer of the system or
machine.
6. Operation
Systems where drive controllers are installed must be
equipped, if necessary, with additional monitoring and
protective devices according to the valid safety regulations,
e.g. law on technical equipment, regulations for the prevention
of accidents, etc. Modifications of the drive controllers and the
operating software are prohibited.
After disconnecting the drive controllers from the supply
voltage, live parts of the controller and power connections
must not be touched immediately, because of possibly
charged capacitors. For this, observe the corresponding
labels on the drive controllers.
During operation, all covers and doors must be closed.
7. Maintenance and servicing
The manufacturer´s documentation must be observed.
This safety information must be preserved!
The product-specific safety and application notes in
these operating instructions must also be observed!
