2.3. Safety instructions for transportation and
storage
• The ambient conditions given in the product documentation must be observed for
transportation and storage (temperature, humidity, mechanical stress and aggressive
atmosphere).
• Drives contain components sensitive to electrostatic charges which can be damaged by
inappropriate handling. Therefore during installation / removal of drives, provide the
necessary safety precautions against electrostatic discharges (discharge electrostatic
charges of the human body before touching the drive, always place the drive above
conductive plates and avoid touching it with insulating material like synthetic fibres,
polymeric materials etc…)
Risk of injury by incorrect handling !
• Incorrect handing of the equipment may cause severe personal injury. Use appropriate
tools for transportation, lifting, handling and mounting. Wear appropriate clothing for
accident-prevention (safety shoes, safety glasses, safety gloves, etc...).
2.4. Safety instructions for commissioning
• The high voltages inside the drive imply risk of electric shock. Make sure that drive
and motor are properly grounded accordingly to national regulations. Furthermore the
drive, before switching it on, must be closed in a protective cabinet in order to avoid
direct contact with accessible live parts.
• Only qualified and trained personnel is allowed to perform installation and
commissioning, using appropriate tools and following the safety precautions given in
this instruction. Make sure that supply voltage has been switched off before installing
and wiring.
• Drives are only allowed to be operated on TT, TN grounded industrial mains having
maximum 480V+10% line to line rms voltage, as specified in the user manual. Do not
directly install the drive on ungrounded (IT) or asymmetrically grounded mains. In
case of ungrounded mains, coupling with Dyn transformer with grounded secondary
circuit is necessary. Refer to drive technical data and wiring instruction.
• All the components used in the cabinet in which the drive is installed, (cables,
contactors, inductors and transformers, fuses, etc...), and the connected motor, must be
in compliance with the specification given in the product documentation, in addition
to national regulations. Make sure that the maximum temperature inside the cabinet
does not exceed 45°C (113°F). If necessary, use an appropriate air conditioning.
• The size and temperature rating of wires and cables used for connecting the drive must
be in compliance with the specification given in the instruction manual (see NEC 310-
16 for USA). Use also the specified tightening torque.
• Make sure about the correct drive-motor matching: voltage and current ratings must
be compatible.
