3.2 Instructions with Regard to Specific Dangers
3.2.1 Protection Against Contact with Electrical Parts and Housings
This section concerns devices and drive components with voltages
of more than 50 Volt.
Contact with parts conducting voltages above 50 Volts can cause personal
danger and electric shock. When operating electrical equipment, it is unavoid‐
able that some parts of the devices conduct dangerous voltage.
DANGER
High electrical voltage! Danger to life, electric shock and severe bodily
injury!
● Only those trained and qualified to work with or on electrical equipment
are permitted to operate, maintain and repair this equipment.
● Follow general construction and safety regulations when working on pow‐
er installations.
● Before switching on the device, the equipment grounding conductor must
have been non-detachably connected to all electrical equipment in ac‐
cordance with the connection diagram.
● Do not operate electrical equipment at any time, even for brief measure‐
ments or tests, if the equipment grounding conductor is not permanently
connected to the mounting points of the components provided for this
purpose.
● Before working with electrical parts with voltage potentials higher than
50 V, the device must be disconnected from the mains voltage or power
supply unit. Provide a safeguard to prevent reconnection.
● With electrical drive and filter components, observe the following:
Wait 30 minutes after switching off power to allow capacitors to discharge
before beginning to work. Measure the electric voltage on the capacitors
before beginning to work to make sure that the equipment is safe to touch.
● Never touch the electrical connection points of a component while power
is turned on. Do not remove or plug in connectors when the component
has been powered.
● Install the covers and guards provided with the equipment properly before
switching the device on. Before switching the equipment on, cover and
safeguard live parts safely to prevent contact with those parts.
● A residual-current-operated circuit-breaker or r.c.d. cannot be used for
electric drives! Indirect contact must be prevented by other means, for
example, by an overcurrent protective device according to the relevant
standards.
● Secure built-in devices from direct touching of electrical parts by providing
an external housing, for example a control cabinet.
8/52 Bosch Rexroth AG | Electric Drives
and Controls
Rexroth IndraControl VDP 92.3 |Project Planning Manual
Safety Instructions for Electric Drives and Controls

For electrical drive and filter components with voltages of more than
50 volts, observe the following additional safety instructions.
DANGER
High housing voltage and high leakage current! Risk of death or bodily
injury by electric shock!
● Before switching on, the housings of all electrical equipment and motors
must be connected or grounded with the equipment grounding conductor
to the grounding points. This is also applicable before short tests.
● The equipment grounding conductor of the electrical equipment and the
devices must be non-detachably and permanently connected to the power
supply unit at all times. The leakage current is greater than 3.5 mA.
● Over the total length, use copper wire of a cross section of a minimum of
10 mm2 for this equipment grounding connection!
● Before commissioning, also in trial runs, always attach the equipment
grounding conductor or connect to the ground wire. Otherwise, high vol‐
tages may occur at the housing causing electric shock.
3.2.2 Protection Against Electric Shock by Protective Extra-Low Voltage
Protective extra-low voltage is used to allow connecting devices with basic in‐
sulation to extra-low voltage circuits.
All connections and terminals with voltages between 5 and 50 volts at Rexroth
products are PELV systems. 1) It is therefore allowed to connect devices
equipped with basic insulation (such as programming devices, PCs, notebooks,
display units) to these connections and terminals.
WARNING
High electric voltage by incorrect connection! Risk of death or bodily
injury by electric shock!
If extra-low voltage circuits of devices containing voltages and circuits of more
than 50 volts (e.g. the mains connection) are connected to Rexroth products,
the connected extra-low voltage circuits must comply with the requirements for
PELV. 2)
3.2.3 Protection Against Dangerous Movements
Dangerous movements can be caused by faulty control of connected motors.
Some common examples are:
● improper or wrong wiring of cable connections
● incorrect operation of the equipment components
● wrong input of parameters before operation
● malfunction of sensors, encoders and monitoring devices
● defective components
● software or firmware errors
Dangerous movements can occur immediately after equipment is switched on
or even after an unspecified time of trouble-free operation.

Safety Instructions for Electric Drives and Controls

The monitoring in the drive components will normally be sufficient to avoid faulty
operation in the connected drives. Regarding personal safety, especially the
danger of bodily harm and material damage, this alone cannot be relied upon
to ensure complete safety. Until the integrated monitoring functions become
effective, it must be assumed in any case that faulty drive movements will occur.
The extent of faulty drive movements depends upon the type of control and the
state of operation.
10/52 Bosch Rexroth AG | Electric Drives
and Controls
Rexroth IndraControl VDP 92.3 |Project Planning Manual
Safety Instructions for Electric Drives and Controls

DANGER
Dangerous movements! Danger to life, risk of injury, severe bodily harm
or material damage!
● Ensure personal safety by means of qualified and tested higher-level
monitoring devices or measures integrated in the installation.
These measures have to be provided for by the user according to the
specific conditions within the installation and a hazard and fault analysis.
The safety regulations applicable for the installation have to be taken into
consideration. Unintended machine motion or other malfunction is possi‐
ble if safety devices are disabled, bypassed or not activated.
To avoid accidents, bodily harm and/or material damage:
● Keep free and clear of the machine’s range of motion and moving parts.
Possible measures to prevent people from accidentally entering the ma‐
chine’s range of motion:
– use safety fences
– use safety guards
– use protective coverings
– install light curtains or light barriers
● Fences and coverings must be strong enough to resist maximum possible
momentum.
● Mount the emergency stop switch in the immediate reach of the operator.
Verify that the emergency stop works before startup. Don’t operate the
device if the emergency stop is not working.
● Isolate the drive power connection by means of an emergency stop circuit
or use a safety related starting lockout to prevent unintentional start.
● Make sure that the drives are brought to a safe standstill before accessing
or entering the danger zone.
● Additionally secure vertical axes against falling or dropping after switching
off the motor power by, for example:
– mechanically securing the vertical axes,
– adding an external braking/ arrester/ clamping mechanism or
– ensuring sufficient equilibration of the vertical axes.
● The standard equipment motor brake or an external brake controlled di‐
rectly by the drive controller are not sufficient to guarantee personal
safety!
● Disconnect electrical power to the equipment using a master switch and
secure the switch against reconnection for:
– maintenance and repair work
– cleaning of equipment
– long periods of discontinued equipment use
● Prevent the operation of high-frequency, remote control and radio equip‐
ment near electronics circuits and supply leads. If the use of such devices
cannot be avoided, verify the system and the installation for possible mal‐
functions in all possible positions of normal use before initial startup. If
necessary, perform a special electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) test on
the installation.

stored, repaired or mounted.
● If it is necessary for somebody with a pacemaker to enter such an area,
a doctor must be consulted prior to doing so. The noise immunity of pres‐
ent or future implanted heart pacemakers differs greatly so that no general
rules can be given.
● Those with metal implants or metal pieces, as well as with hearing aids,
must consult a doctor before they enter the areas described above. Oth‐
erwise health hazards may occur.
3.2.5 Protection Against Contact with Hot Parts
CAUTION
Hot surfaces at motor housings, on drive controllers or chokes! Danger
of injury! Danger of burns!
● Do not touch surfaces of device housings and chokes in the proximity of
heat sources! Danger of burns!
● Do not touch housing surfaces of motors! Danger of burns!
● According to the operating conditions, temperatures can be higher than
60 °C, 140°F during or after operation.
● Before accessing motors after having switched them off, let them cool
down for a sufficiently long time. Cooling down can require up to 140 mi‐
nutes! Roughly estimated, the time required for cooling down is five times
the thermal time constant specified in the Technical Data.
● After switching drive controllers or chokes off, wait 15 minutes to allow
them to cool down before touching them.
● Wear safety gloves or do not work at hot surfaces.
● For certain applications, the manufacturer of the end product, machine or
installation, according to the respective safety regulations, has to take
measures to avoid injuries caused by burns in the end application. These
measures can be, for example: warnings, guards (shielding or barrier),
technical documentation.

● Immediately clean up any spilled liquids because of the danger of skidding.
3.2.7 Battery Safety
Batteries consist of active chemicals enclosed in a solid housing. Therefore,
improper handling can cause injury or material damage.
CAUTION
Risk of injury by improper handling!
● Do not attempt to reactivate low batteries by heating or other methods (risk
of explosion and cauterization).
● Do not recharge the batteries as this may cause leakage or explosion.
● Do not throw batteries into open flames.
● Do not dismantle batteries.
● When replacing the battery/batteries do not damage electrical parts in‐
stalled in the devices.
● Only use the battery types specified by the manufacturer.
Environmental protection and disposal! The batteries contained in
the product are considered dangerous goods during land, air, and
sea transport (risk of explosion) in the sense of the legal regulations.

local regulations in the country of assembly.
3.2.8 Protection Against Pressurized Systems
According to the information given in the Project Planning Manuals, motors
cooled with liquid and compressed air, as well as drive controllers, can be par‐
tially supplied with externally fed, pressurized media, such as compressed air,
hydraulics oil, cooling liquids and cooling lubricating agents. Improper handling
of the connected supply systems, supply lines or connections can cause injuries
or material damage.
