DANGER!
In unfavourable conditions arcing may occur, causing potential injury
to persons and damage to electrical contacts.
- For this reason, never unplug the electrical connections on the servo amp-
lifier while voltage is applied.
- After disconnecting the servo amplifier from the mains voltages, wait at
least eight minutes before touching any parts that carry voltage (e.g. con-
tacts) or loosening the connections.
- After the mains voltages have been switched off, capacitors continue to
carry hazardous voltages for up to 10minutes.
- To be safe, measure the voltage in the intermediate circuit and wait until
the voltage has dropped below 40VDC.
DANGER!
While the devices are in operation there is a risk of death or serious in-
jury and material damage.
When the supply voltage is switched on, do not:
- Open the housing
- Connect or disconnect connection terminals
- Connect or disconnect a connection wiring
- Install or remove accessories
3.3 Standards
Servo amplifiers are components designed for incorporation into electrical plant or ma-
chinery within the industrial sector. The servo amplifier may not be used for its intended
purpose until it has been established that the plant or machinery complies with the provi-
sions of the following directives:
} EU Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)
} EU EMC Directive (2014/30/EU)
} EU Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU)
Standards for compliance with the EU Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)
} EN60204-1 (Safety and electrical equipment of machines)
} EN12100 (Safety of machinery)
The machine manufacturer must produce a hazard analysis for the machine and take ap-
propriate measures to ensure that unexpected movements do not cause injury to people or
damage to equipment.
Standards for compliance with the EU Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU)
} EN60204-1 (Safety and electrical equipment of machines)
} EN60439-1 (Low voltage switchgear and controlgear assemblies)
} EN61800-5-1 (Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems - Safety requirements)
