1. Important Pre-operation information
1.1 Safety informationElectrical units are a source of danger.
Comply with the relevant laws and regulations when electrical units
are used in installations and control systems which require
observation of safety rules, and when carrying out installation work.
When working on live units, always comply with the current accident
prevention regulations.
For reasons of safety and in order to maintain the documented
system data and functions the unit or its components may only be
repaired by the manufacturer.
No liability can be accepted if the drive parameters have an
unsuitable, incorrect manual or automatic setting.
Incorrect handling may cause injuries and/or damage property!
Prior to installation technicians who are familiar with electrical drive
equipment must read the unit handbook thoroughly.
Ensure that the voltage is not dangerous before touching electrical
contacts.
The user must use independent monitoring units in order to ensure
that a malfunctioning drive is stopped safely.
The user is responsible for installing and connecting the motor, the
converter and auxiliary units pursuant to the acknowledged technical
rules in the country of installation and other current regional
regulations. In particular, cable dimensioning, shielding, earthing,
disconnection, isolation and overcurrent protection must be taken
into account.
Regulations pursuant to DIN 57100 are applicable.
The modules are fitted with electrostatically sensitive CMOS and
MOS components. Always comply with the following information
when handling and testing the units, otherwise these integrated
circuits may be damaged.
When servicing the unit, first ensure that there is equipotential
bonding (static charging) between the unit, tools, measuring
instruments and personnel.
Take hold of the modules only by the edges; do not touch the
components or their connections.

1.2 General information
Check for any transport damage after unpacking the control
unit and before the initial start-up.
Check that all plug-in and screwed connections are secure.
Minimum requirements for installation site:
♦The room should be as dust-free as possible (fit filters to
control cabinets which have floor fans).
♦The ambient temperature must be within the range 5-40 °C
(if required provide separate cooling).
♦The relative air humidity must not exceed 90%.
♦The ambient air must not contain any corrosive gases.
The control unit causes power loss and heats the environment.
Ensure that there is adequate distance between the control
unit and heat-sensitive units.
The units are designed for installation in card racks.
The unit must be installed vertically.
The air flow of the unit must not be obstructed.
The air inlet and outlet must be kept clear.
Important information regarding protective earthing
As the servo controller (>3.5 mA) leaks current via the
protective conductor (PE), the feeder cross section of the
protective conductor to the control cabinet must be at least 10
mm² Cu pursuant to DIN 57100, or a second protective
conductor must be laid electrically parallel.
If the connected loads are larger, the minimum cross section of
the protective conductor must correspond to the cross section
of the outer conductors.
The converter leakage currents may be up to 100 mA.
Operation with 30 mA residual-current-operated circuit-
breakers is therefore not possible.
Important information regarding cables
Control lines and power cables are always isolated and must
not be laid in close proximity.
Set-point input, analogue control inputs and measuring outputs
must be installed with shielded cables.

1.1 Information on EMC
In order to guarantee electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in your switch cabinets in an
electrically raw environment, the following EMC rules are to be observed during construction
and set-up:
♦All metallic parts of the switch cabinet are to be connected flatly and in a well-conducting
manner (not lacquer on lacquer!). If necessary, use contact or scraper wafers. The
cabinet door is to be connected with as short a circuit as possible via the metal powder
tapes (upper, middle, lower).
♦Signal lines and power cables are to be laid separate from each other in order to avoid
coupling intervals. Minimum distance: 20 cm:
♦Signal lines should be led to the cabinet from only one level, if possible.
Unshielded lines from the same electrical circuit (outgoing and return circuit) are to be
transposed, if possible.
♦Contactors, relays and magnetic valves in the switch cabinet, if necessary in the adjacent
cabinets, are to be wired with quench combinations, e.g. with RC elements, varistors,
diodes.
♦The screens from signal lines are to be laid two-way (source and target), large-area and
well-conducting to a ground1. In case of poor potential equalization between shielded
connections, an additional balancing network of at least 10 mm² must be laid parallel to
the screen to reduce the screen current.
♦Wiring is not to be laid freely in the cabinet, but should rather lead as tightly as possible
to the cabinet frame or to installation plates. This also applies to reserve cables. At least
one end of them must lie grounded, but preferably both (additional shield effect).
♦Unnecessary wire lengths are to be avoided. Coupling capacities and coupling
inductances are thereby kept small.
♦The screen from leads, such as resolver or incremental director cables, must be laid to
the frame grounding. Approximately 2 cm of the insulation is to be removed in the area
where the cable is to be led into the frame in order to expose the braided cable. The
braided cable may not be damaged while removing the insulation. The cable is to be led
at the position where the insulation has been removed by grounded terminals or taut
supports.
cable taut support
1Generally all metallic conducting parts which can be connected to a protective conductor,
such as cabinet frames, motor frames, foundation grounding, etc. are designated as a
ground.
