1 Safety and Commissioning Information for Low-Voltage Machines
(in accordance with Low-Voltage Guideline 73/23/EWG )
1.1 General
Even at a standstill, d.c. motors may, under some circumstances, have dangerous, live, rotating compo-
nents that may have hot surfaces. All transportation and connection work as well as activities related to
the commissioning and corrective maintenance of the equipment must be carried out by qualified, re-
sponsible specialists (observe VDE 0105; IEC 364). Inappropriate behaviour may result in serious per-
sonal injury or damage to property. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any and all damage
resulting from inappropriate behaviour or behaviour that does not comply with applicable guidelines,
specifications and legislation. Always observe national, local and plant-specific regulations and re-
quirements.
Pay attention at all times to the warning signs and information plates mounted on the machine.
1.2 Appropriate Use
These motors are intended for commercial systems. They meet the harmonized standards of series
VDE 0530/EN 60034.
