 For any information concerning lubricants used, safety and fire prevention measures to adopt,
interventions regarding first aid or accidental spills, as well as handling and storage, refer to
the instructions supplied by the manufacturer in the technical/toxicological data sheet of each
product.
2.4 Risks associated with the use of the product
HSD is not responsible for installations performed by persons who are unqualified and/or for
installations that do not comply with the conditions stated in this manual.
The equipment must only be fitted on machinery. The manufacturer must perform the risk analysis
before putting the machine into service. This kind of analysis must take into account the whole
machine life cycle.
It is nevertheless the responsibility of the installer to ensure that there is adequate protection
against risks of accidental contact with moving parts.
The installer and user must also take into account the possible presence of other types of risk, in
particular those deriving from the entrance of foreign bodies and the use of explosive, flammable,
toxic or hot gases.
Consideration should also be given to risks inherent to maintenance operations, which must be carried
out under conditions of maximum safety by ensuring that the product is isolated and at a complete
standstill.
Magnetic dangers
The synchronous motors rotor pack contains permanent magnets with a very high magnetic flux
density. The high forces of attraction to ferromagnetic bodies are not controllable using physical
force.
 Leave the components of the motor in the packaging until assembly.
 Mark the place of storage with a magnetic danger symbol.
 Deposit the rotor pack without packaging in a safe place! Secure the rotor pack with non
magnetic devices.
 Prevent contact between the rotor pack and the ferromagnetic bodies! Your fingers are
particularly at risk.
 Use tools made of non magnetic material where possible. Ferromagnetic tools for assembly
may only have reduced mass. Use with caution.
 Keep a wedge (with an angle of approx 10° - 15°) and non magnetic hammers to hand in case
of emergencies.
 The rotor pack is not an object for experimentation! Permanent magnets in the rotor pack
constitute a danger to electronic circuits and data support.
Direct contact with the rotor pack is forbidden for those with pacemakers and
ferromagnetic units. These people must maintain a sufficient safety distance from the
rotor pack (in its packaging) - minimum distance 0.5 m.
