particular risk in the immediate vicinity of this equipment.
• If you are aected, maintain a minimum distance of 300 mm away from the motor.
WARNING
Inuence of active implants by permanent magnet elds
Even when switched o, electric motors with permanent magnets represent a potential risk for
persons with heart pacemakers or implants if they are close to converters/motors.
• If you are aected, maintain a minimum distance of 300 mm.
• When transporting or storing permanent-magnet motors always use the original packing
materials with the warning labels attached.
