1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
ONLY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CAN CARRY OUT THE ELECTRICAL
INSTALLATION OF THIS FILTER
WARNING
High voltage is used in the operation of this filter. Use Extreme caution to avoid contact
with high voltage when operating, installing or repairing this filter. INJURY OR DEATH
MAY RESULT IF SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT OBSERVED.
After removing power, allow at least five minutes to elapse and verify that the capacitors
have discharged to a safe level before contacting internal components. Connect a DC
voltmeter across the capacitor terminals. Start with the meter on the highest scale and
progressively switch to a lower scale as the indicated voltage falls below the maximum
value of the next lower scale used.
WARNING
The opening of the branch circuit protective device may be an indication that a fault current has
been interrupted. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, current-carrying parts and other
components of the filter should be examined and replaced if damaged.
WARNING
An upstream disconnect/protection device must be used as required by the National Electrical
Code (NEC).
WARNING
Even if the upstream disconnect/protection device is open, the inverter up stream of the filter may
feed high voltage to the filter. The drive safety instructions must be followed.
INJURY OR
DEATH MAY RESULT IF THE DRIVE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT OBSERVED.
WARNING
The filter must be grounded with a grounding conductor connected to all grounding terminals.
WARNING
Only spare parts obtained from MTE Corporation or an authorized MTE distributor can be used.
