1.3 Possible residual risks
The following risks can arise from a drive system and pose a hazard to
people. These risks must therefore be taken into account by the
system integrator and / or the plant owner when assessing the risks of
the machinery.
• Electric power equipment generates electro-
magnetic fields which can cause a hazard to
people with metal implants and / or a pace-
maker.
• Drive system components can move uninten-
tionally when being commissioned, operated,
or serviced due to, for example:
- Operation of the equipment outside the
scope of the specifications
- Incorrectly assembled or installed equip-
ment
- Wrongly connected cables
- External influence on, or damage of the
equipment
-Wrong parameter settings
-Software errors
- Faulty hardware
• Hazardous touch voltages can be present on
drive system components caused by, for exam-
ple:
- Operation of the equipment outside the
scope of the specifications
- External influence on, or damage of the
equipment
- Induced voltages by external equipment
- Condensation on equipment components,
or pollution
- Faulty hardware
• High temperatures, noise, particles, or gases
can be emitted from drive system components
caused by, for example:
- Operation of the equipment outside the
scope of the specifications
- External influence on, or damage of the
equipment
- Wrong parameter settings
-Software errors
- Faulty hardware
• Hazardous substances can be emitted from
drive system components due to, for example:
- Incorrect disposal of components
