The device and its optional modules contain electrostatically sensitive components, which can be
easily damaged by incorrect handling. Electrical components must not be mechanically damaged or
destroyed.
Electrical connection
Ensure that the device and the motor are specified for the correct supply voltage.
Installation, maintenance and repair work must not be carried out unless the device has been
disconnected from the voltage and at least 5 minutes have elapsed since the mains was switched off!
(Due to charged capacitors, hazardous voltages may be present on the device for up to 5 minutes
after being switched off from the mains). Before starting work it is essential to check by measurement
that all contacts of the power plug connections or the connection terminals are voltage-free.
The electrical installation must be implemented according to the applicable regulations (e.g. cable
cross-section, fuses, earth lead connections). Further instructions can be found in the documentation
or manual for the device.
Information regarding EMC-compliant installations such as shielding, earthing, location of filters and
routing of cables can be found in the documentation for the devices and in the technical information
manual TI 80-0011. This information must always be observed even with devices with a CE label.
Compliance with the limit values specified in the EMC regulations is the responsibility of the
manufacturer of the system or machine.
In case of a fault, inadequate earthing may result in electric shock, possibly with fatal consequences.
The device may only be operated with effective earth connections which comply with local regulations
for large leakage currents (> 3.5 mA). Detailed information regarding connections and operating
conditions can be obtained from the technical Information manual TI 80-0019.
Connection of the supply voltage may directly or indirectly set the device into operation. Contact with
electrically live components may result in electric shock, possibly with fatal consequences.
All poles of cable connections (e.g. power supply) must always be disconnected.
Setup, troubleshooting and commissioning
When working on live devices, the applicable national accident prevention regulations must be
complied with.
Connection of the supply voltage may directly or indirectly set the device into operation. Contact with
electrically live components may result in electric shock, possibly with fatal consequences.
The parametrisation and configuration of the devices must be selected so that no hazards can occur.
With certain setting conditions, the device or the motor which is connected to it may start automatically
when the mains are switched on. The machinery which it drives (press / chain hoist / roller / fan etc.)
may then make an unexpected movement. This may cause various injuries, including to third parties.
Before switching on the mains, secure the danger area by warning and removing all persons from the
danger area.
Operation
Where necessary, systems in which the devices are installed must be equipped with additional
monitoring and protective equipment according to the applicable safety requirements (e.g. legislation
concerning technical equipment, accident prevention regulations, etc.).
All covers must be kept closed during operation.
