5340 en - 2017.07 / c
• Throughout the manual this symbol
warns of consequences which may
arise from inappropriate use of the
drive, since electrical risks may lead to
material or physical damage as well as
constituting a re hazard.
1 - General
Depending on their degree of protection, the
variable speed drives may contain unprotected
live parts, which may be moving or rotating, as
well as hot surfaces, during operation.
Unjustied removal of protection devices,
incorrectuse,faultyinstallationorinappropriate
operation could represent a serious risk to
personnel and equipment.
For further information, consult the
documentation.
All work relating to transportation, installation,
commissioning and maintenance must be
performed by experienced, qualied personnel
(see IEC 364 or CENELEC HD 384, or DIN
VDE 0100 and national specications for
installation and accident prevention).
In these basic safety instructions, qualied
personnel means persons competent to install,
t, commission and operate the product, and
possessing the relevant qualications.
2 - Use
Variable speed drives are components
designed for integration in installations or
electrical machines.
When integrated in a machine, commissioning
must not take place until it has been veried
that the machine conforms with directive
2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive). It is also
necessary to comply with standard EN 60204,
which stipulates in particular that electrical
actuators (which include variable speed drives)
cannot be considered as circuit-breaking
devices and certainly not as isolating switches.
Commissioning can take place only if the
requirements of the Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive (EMC 2004/108/EC)
are met.
The variable speed drives meet the
requirements of the Low Voltage Directive
2006/95/EC. The harmonised standards of the
DIN VDE 0160 series in connection with
standard VDE 0660, part 500 and EN 60146/
VDE 0558 are also applicable.
The technical characteristics and instructions
concerning the connection conditions specied
on the nameplate and in the documentation
provided must be observed without fail.
3 - Transportation, storage
All instructions concerning transportation,
storageand correcthandlingmustbe observed.
The climatic conditions specied in the
technical manual must be observed.
