Product Related Information
This equipment has been designed to operate outside of any hazardous location. Only install this
equipment in zones known to be free of a hazardous atmosphere.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH
Disconnect all power from all equipment including connected devices prior to removing any
covers or doors, or installing or removing any accessories, hardware, cables, or wires except
under the specific conditions specified in the appropriate hardware guide for this equipment.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm the power is off where and when
indicated.
Where 24 VDC or VAC is indicated, use PELV power supplies conforming to IEC 60204-1.
Replace and secure all covers, accessories, hardware, cables, and wires and confirm that a
proper ground connection exists before applying power to this equipment.
Use only the specified voltage when operating this equipment and any associated products.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

edition), "Safety Standards for Construction and Guide for Selection, Installation and Operation of
Adjustable-Speed Drive Systems" or their equivalent governing your particular location.
WARNING
LOSS OF CONTROL
The designer of any control scheme must consider the potential failure modes of control paths
and, for certain critical control functions, provide a means to achieve a safe state during and
after a path failure. Examples of critical control functions are emergency stop and overtravel
stop, power outage and restart.
Separate or redundant control paths must be provided for critical control functions.
System control paths may include communication links. Consideration must be given to the
implications of unanticipated transmission delays or failures of the link.
Observe all accident prevention regulations and local safety guidelines.1
Each implementation of this equipment must be individually and thoroughly tested for proper
operation before being placed into service.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
WARNING
INSUFFICIENT AND/OR INEFFECTIVE SAFETY-RELATED FUNCTIONS
Verify that a risk assessment as per ISO 12100 and/or other equivalent assessment has been
performed before this product is used.
Before performing any type of work on or with this product, fully read and understand all
pertinent manuals.
Verify that modifications do not compromise or reduce the Safety Integrity Level (SIL),
Performance Level (PL) and/or any other safety-related requirements and capabilities defined
for your machine/process.
After modifications of any type whatsoever, restart the machine/process and verify the correct
operation and effectiveness of all functions by performing comprehensive tests for all
operating states, the defined safe state, and all potential error situations.
