1.9 Proper use
DC1-S… variable frequency drives are electrical devices for controlling
variable speed drives with single-phase AC motors. They are designed for
installation in machines or for use in combination with other components
within a machine or system.
The DC1-S… variable frequency drives are not domestic appliances. They are
designed only for industrial use as system components.
If the variable frequency drive is installed in a machine, it is prohibited to
place it into operation until it has been determined that the corresponding
machine meets the safety and protection requirements set forth in
Machinery Safety Directive 2006/42/EC (e.g., by complying with EN 60204).
The user of the equipment is responsible for ensuring that the machine use
complies with the relevant EU Directives.
The CE marking on DC1-S… variable frequency drives confirms that the
devices meet the
requirements set forth in the European Union’s Low
Voltage and EMC Directives (Directives 2014/35/EU, 2014/30/EU, and
ROHS 2011/65/EU) when used in their typical drive configuration.
In the described system configurations,
DC1-S… variable frequency drives
are suitable for use in public and non-public networks.
Connecting a DC1-S… variable frequency drive with an integrated radio
interference suppression filter to an IT grounding system (network without a
direct connection to ground) is only permissible under certain conditions, as
the device’s internal filter capacitors will connect the network to ground
potential (enclosure).
In ungrounded networks, this can result in hazardous situations or damage to
the device (insulation monitoring is required!).
￫
To the output (terminals U, V) of the DC1-S… variable frequency
drive you must not:
• connect a voltage or capacitive loads (e.g. phase
compensation capacitors),
• Connect multiple variable frequency drives in parallel
• make a direct connection to the input (bypass).
￫
Always observe the technical data and connection conditions!
For additional information, refer to the equipment nameplate or
label at the variable frequency drive and the documentation.
Any other use will be considered to be an improper use of the
device.
