2.4 Specific dangers
The following section lists the residual risks that have been deter-
mined by the risk assessment.
• Heed the safety instructions listed here, and the warnings in
subsequent chapters of this Manual, to reduce health hazards
and to avoid dangerous situations.
Danger to life caused by electric current
Touching conductive parts causes a direct danger to life.
Damage to insulation or individual components can cause dan-
ger to life.
Therefore:
• In the event of damage to insulation, switch off the power
supply immediately and have the defective parts repaired.
• Work on the electrical system must be carried out only by
skilled electricians.
• De-energize the machine for all work on the electrical system.
• Before maintenance, cleaning or repair work, switch off the
power supply and perform lockout procedures so it cannot be
turned on again.
• Do not bridge fuses or make them ineffective. When changing
fuses, make sure you use the correct amperage.
• Keep moisture away from conductive parts. If you do not, this
can cause short circuit.
DANGER
Electric current
Electric shock hazard
Ensure that cables cannot become pinched or damaged. Check
that the mains voltage corresponds to nominal values on the
product label. Ensure that the cabling is correctly installed in
the cable channel.
Beware of damage to actuator caused by splashing or
hose-directed water. The actuators are in accordance with IP66.
Exposure to risk of damage must be prevented at all times.
WARNING
Electric shock hazard
The linear actuator MAX do not have any on/off-switch and if
required to be switched off, for example in a emergency, the
actuator must be disconnected from the control unit or the
power supply. Only this measure will de-energize the actuator.
Applications where the actuators are built in, must provide an
emergency stop switch or isolation from the mains supply on all
conductors.
