3.1 You should pay attention to this
This section helps you to recognize and avoid dangers to people and objects.
Read the documentation!
Read the available documentation before installation and commissioning. Improper handling
of the drive can cause harm to people or damage to property. The operator of systems using
the AKD must require that all personnel who work with the drive read and understand the
manual before using the drive.
Check Hardware Revision!
Check the Hardware Revision Number of the product (see product label). This number is the
link between your product and the manual, it must match the Hardware Revision Number on
the cover page of the manual.
Pay attention to the technical data!
Adhere to the technical data and the specifications on connection conditions (rating plate and
documentation). If permissible voltage values or current values are exceeded, the drives can
be damaged.
Perform a risk assessment!
The manufacturer of the machine must generate a risk assessment for the machine, and
take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements cannot cause injury or dam-
age to any person or property. Additional requirements on specialist staff may also result
from the risk assessment.
Specialist staff required!
Only properly qualified personnel are permitted to perform such tasks as transport,
assembly, setup and maintenance. Qualified specialist staff are persons who are familiar
with the transport, installation, assembly, commissioning and operation of drives and who
bring their relevant minimum qualifications to bear on their duties:
l Transport: only by personnel with knowledge of handling electrostatically sensitive com-
ponents.
l Unpacking: only by electrically qualified personnel.
l Installation: only by electrically qualified personnel.
l Basic tests / Setup: only by qualified personnel with knowledge of electrical engineering
and drive technology
The qualified personnel must know and observe ISO 12100 / IEC 60364 / IEC 60664 and
national accident prevention regulations.
Observe electrostatically sensitive components!
The drives contain electrostatically sensitive components which may be damaged by incor-
rect handling. Electrostatically discharge your body before touching the drive. Avoid contact
with highly insulating materials (artificial fabrics, plastic film etc.). Place the drive on a con-
ductive surface.
Hot surface!
Drives may have hot surfaces during operation. The heat sink can reach temperatures above
80°C. Risk of minor burns! Measure the temperature, and wait until the heat sink has cooled
down below 40 °C before touching it.
