1.2 Hazards
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
This equipment has been tested and found to be compliant with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
An electrostatic discharge in some metallic parts of the device may cause the interruption of the NFC communications,
aecting the initial detection of the material spool. In these cases, a device restart should solve the problem.
Electrical safety
The Ultimaker S5 has been tested according to the IEC 60950-1. Every printer has passed Hi-pot testing before
shipment. This test guarantees the right level of insulation against electrical shock. An earthed mains socket
must be used. Be sure that the building installation has dedicated means for over-current and short-circuiting.
For more information, please look at our website for the CB-report. The printer is powered by mains voltage,
which is hazardous when touched. This has been marked with a high-voltage symbol on the bottom cover.
Only trained staff should remove the bottom cover.
Always unplug the printer before doing maintenance or modifications.
Mechanical safety
The Ultimaker S5 complies to the Machine Directive 2006/42/EU. The EC declaration of conformity can be
found on our website. The Ultimaker S5 contains moving parts. No damage to the user will be expected from
the drive belts.The force of the build plate is big enough to give some damage, so keep hands out of the reach
of the build plate during operation.
Always unplug the printer before doing maintenance or modifications.
Risk of burns
There is a potential risk of burns: the print head can reach temperatures up to 280 °C, while the heated bed can
reach temperatures of 140 °C. Do not touch both with your bare hands.
Always allow the printer to cool down for 30 minutes before performing maintenance or modifications.
Health and safety
The Ultimaker S5 is designed for Ultimaker material. These materials can be printed safely if the recommended
temperatures and settings are used. We recommend to print all Ultimaker materials in a well-ventilated area. Please
check the SDS of each specific material for more information.
Third-party materials can release VOCs (volatile organic compounds) above regulated threshold limit values
when processed in Ultimaker 3D printers (not covered by warranty). These can cause headaches, fatigue,
dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, malaise, difficulty in concentration, and feelings of intoxication. Usage of a
fume hood is recommended. Look at the SDS of these materials for more information.
