General Information 1-3MN1943
MEDICAL DEVICE / PACEMAKER DANGER: Magnetic and electromagnetic fields in the
vicinity of current carrying conductors and industrial motors can result in a serious health
hazard to persons with cardiac pacemakers, internal cardiac defibrillators, neurostimulators,
metal implants, cochlear implants, hearing aids, and other medical devices. To avoid risk,
stay away from the area surrounding a motor and its current carrying conductors.
Be sure all wiring complies with the National Electrical Code and all regional and local
codes. Improper wiring may result in unsafe conditions.
The stop input to this equipment should not be used as the single means of achieving a
safety critical stop. Drive disable, motor disconnect, motor brake and other means should
be used as appropriate.
Improper operation or programming of the drive may cause violent motion of the motor and
driven equipment. Be certain that unexpected motor movement will not cause injury to
personnel or damage to equipment. Peak torque of several times the rated motor torque
can occur during control failure.
If the drive enable signal is already present when power is applied to the MotiFlex e100, the
motor could begin to move immediately.
The metal heatsink on the left side of the MotiFlex e100 can become very hot during
normal operation.
The metal part of the MotiFlex e100 case incorporates prominent edges and corners that
may cause minor injury if the drive is handled without proper care and attention.
Take care when lifting. The 48 A and 65 A models weigh 12.45 kg (27.4 lb). Seek
assistance if necessary. When carrying, do not suspend the unit from the removable front
panels as they could detach and cause the unit to be dropped.
When operating a rotary motor with no load coupled to its shaft, remove the shaft key to
prevent it flying out when the shaft rotates.
A regeneration resistor may generate enough heat to ignite combustible materials.
To avoid fire hazard, keep all combustible materials and flammable vapors away from the
brake resistors.
To prevent equipment damage, be certain that the input power has correctly sized protective
devices installed.
To prevent equipment damage, be certain that input and output signals are powered and
referenced correctly.
To ensure reliable performance of this equipment be certain that all signals to/from the drive
are shielded correctly .
Suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not more than the RMS symmetrical short
