WARNING
CAUTION

Safety Precautions
12
LCD Digital Operator User’s Manual (I579)
Turn off the power supply and implement wiring correctly.
Not doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Wiring work must be carried out only by qualified personnel.
Not doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Do not change wiring and slide switches (SW1), put on or take off Operator and optional devices, replace
cooling fans while the input power is being supplied. Doing so may result in a serious injury due to an
electric shock.
Be sure to ground the unit. Not doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock or fire.
(200V class: type-D grounding, 400V class: type-C grounding)
Do not remove the terminal cover during the power supply and 10 minutes after the power shut off.
Doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Do not operate the Operator or switches with wet hands.
Doing so may result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
Inspection of the Inverter must be conducted after the power supply has been turned off. Not doing so may
result in a serious injury due to an electric shock.
The main power supply is not necessarily shut off even if the emergency shut off function is activated.
Do not touch the Inverter fins, braking resistors and the motor, which become too hot during the power
supply and for some time after the power shut off. Doing so may result in a burn.
Do not connect resistors to the terminals (+1, P/+2, N/-) directly. Doing so might result in a small-scale fire,
heat generation or damage to the unit.
Install a stop motion device to ensure safety. Not doing so might result in a minor injury. (A holding brake is
not a stop motion device designed to ensure safety.)
Be sure to use a specified type of braking resistor/regenerative braking unit. In case of a braking resistor,
install a thermal relay that monitors the temperature of the resistor. Not doing so might result in a moderate
burn due to the heat generated in the braking resistor/regenerative braking unit. Configure a sequence that
enables the Inverter power to turn off when unusual over heating is detected in the braking resistor/
regenerative braking unit.
The Inverter has high voltage parts inside which, if short-circuited, might cause damage to itself or other
property. Place covers on the openings or take other precautions to make sure that no metal objects such
as cutting bits or lead wire scraps go inside when installing and wiring.
Take safety precautions such as setting up a molded-case circuit breaker (MCCB) that matches the
Inverter capacity on the power supply side.
Not doing so might result in damage to property due to the short circuit of the load.
Do not dismantle, repair or modify the product.
Doing so may result in an injury.

•When disposing of LCD digital operators and wasted batteries, follow the applicable ordinances of
your local government.
When disposing of the battery, insulate it using tape.
•Do not short + and -, charge, disassemble, heat, put into the fire, or apply strong impact on the
battery. The battery may leak, explode, produce heat or fire. Never use the battery which was applied
strong impact due to such as fall on the floor, it may leak.
•UL standards establish that the battery shall be replaced by an expert engineer.
The expert engineer must be in charge of the replacement and also replace the battery according to
the method described in this manual.
•When the display of LCD Digital Operator can not be recognized due to the service life, replace the
LCD Digital Operator.
Maintenance and Inspection
The following display must be indicated when products using lithium primary batteries (with
more than 6 ppb of perchlorate) are transport to or through the State of California, USA.
The 3G3AX-OP05 has the lithium primary battery (with more than 6 ppb of perchlorate). Label
or mark the above display on the exterior of all outer shipping packages of your products when
exporting your products which the 3G3AX-OP05 are installed to the State of California, USA.
Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply.
