For your safety
Version: 1.0 ─── 13AMP8000
Read the general safety instructions in this chapter. Observe the
warnings in these operating instructions for your own safety, the
safety of others and the safety of the product.
When working with control and automation products, many dangers
can result from careless or incorrect use. Work particularly thor-
oughly, not under time pressure and responsibly towards other peo-
ple.
2.1Safety pictograms
On Beckhoff products you will find attached or lasered safety pic-
tograms, which vary depending on the product. They serve to pro-
tect people and to prevent damage to the products. Safety pic-
tograms must not be removed and must be legible for the user.
2.1.1Power supply module
2.1.1
Warning of high voltage!
The DC link on the modules can carry a life-threatening voltage of
over 848VDC.
Warning of a hot surface
During and after operation there is a risk of burns at the power sup-
ply module due to hot surfaces over 60°C. Allow the housing of the
power supply module to cool down for at least 15 minutes.

For your safety
14 ─── Version: 1.0AMP8000
2.1.2Coupling module
2.1.2
Warning of high voltage!
The DC link on the coupling modules can carry a life-threatening
voltage of over 848VDC.

For your safety
Version: 1.0 ─── 15AMP8000
2.1.3Distributed Servo Drive
2.1.3
Warning of a hot surface
During and after operation there is a risk of burns at the motor hous-
ing due to hot surfaces over 60°C. Allow the motor housing to cool
for at least 15 minutes.
Avoid shocks to the shaft
Impacts on the shaft may cause the maximum permissible axial and
radial values to be exceeded. Optical encoder systems can thus be
destroyed.

For your safety
16 ─── Version: 1.0AMP8000
2.2General safety instruc-
tions
In this chapter you will find information on safety for handling the
distributed servo drive system. This is not independently executable.
The distributed servo drive system is therefore considered to be an
incomplete machine. They must be installed in a machine or plant
by the machine builder. The documentation created by the machine
builder must be read.
2.2.1Before operation
Protective equipment
Do not remove or bypass any protective devices. Check all protec-
tive devices before operation. Make sure that all emergency
switches are present at all times and can be reached by you and
other people. People could be seriously or fatally injured by unpro-
tected machine parts.
Switch off the mains voltage and secure it against being
switched on again
When working on machines or systems, switch off the mains voltage
and secure it against being switched on again.
Correctly ground electrical components or modules
Avoid electric shocks due to improper grounding of electrical compo-
nents or modules. Ground all conductive components according to
the specifications in the chapters "Electrical Installation" and "Me-
chanical Installation".
Keep the immediate environment clean
Keep your workplace and the surrounding area clean. Ensure safe
working.
Check safety pictograms
Check whether the designated pictograms are on the product. Re-
place missing or illegible stickers.
Observe tightening torques
Mount and repeatedly check connections and components, comply-
ing with the prescribed tightening torques.
Use the original packaging only
Use the original packaging for dispatch, transportation, storage and
packing.

For your safety
Version: 1.0 ─── 17AMP8000
2.2.2During operation
Observe the discharge times of the capacitors
Observe the following delay times after disconnecting from the
mains supply:
AMP8yxx 30 minutes
AX883x 30 minutes
Do not work on live electrical parts
Only work on the distributed servo drive system when the voltage
has dropped to <50V. Measure the voltage and observe the waiting
times. Ensure that the protective conductor is connected properly.
Never loosen electrical connections when live. Disconnect all com-
ponents from the mains and secure them against being switched on
again.
Do not touch hot surfaces
Check the cooling of the surfaces with a thermometer. Do not touch
the components during and immediately after operation. Allow the
components to cool sufficiently after switching off.
Avoid overheating
Operate the components according to the technical specifications.
Refer here to the chapter: "Technical data". Provide for sufficient
cooling. Switch the components off immediately if the temperature is
too high.
Do not touch any moving or rotating components
Do not touch any moving or rotating components. Fasten all parts or
components on the machine or plant.
2.2.3After operation
De-energize and switch off components before working on
them
Check the functionality of all safety-relevant devices. Secure the
working environment. Secure the machine or plant against being in-
advertently started up. Observe the chapter: "Decommissioning".
