►Instructions on avoiding the hazardous situation
WARNING
Possibly imminent danger
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
►Instructions on avoiding the hazardous situation

►Instructions on avoiding property damage
Notes, tips or examples indicate important information on the product or on this
document.
2.2 Safety instructions
All safety instructions in this document are based on the results of the risk assessment carried out in
accordance with Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU. Where applicable, all life cycle phases of the prod-
uct were taken into account.
Risks during installation
DANGER
Danger to life from electric shock
Contact with exposed and live elements generate an electric shock. Incorrect connection of the mains
supply leads to the risk of live housing parts that can be touched. There is a risk to life.
►Before the installation, check that the connection leads are voltage-free.
►Make sure that electrical installations are only carried out by qualified electricians.
►Provide adequate grounding for the device.
►After connection work, carry out an earthed conductor check.
Safety
10/38

DANGER
Danger to life from electric shock
Power supply packs that are not specified or are not approved will lead to severest injuries up to
death.
►Make sure that the power supply pack meets the requirements for double isolation between
mains input voltage and output voltage, in accordance with IEC 61010 and IEC 60950.
►Make sure that the power supply pack meets the requirements in accordance with IEC 61010
and IEC 60950.
►Where possible, use original power supply packs or only power supply packs that correspond
with the applicable safety regulations.
WARNING
Risk of danger to life through missing mains disconnection device
The vacuum pump and electronic drive unit are not equipped with a mains disconnection device
(mains switch).
►Install a mains disconnection device according to SEMI-S2.
►Install a circuit breaker with an interruption rating of at least 10,000 A.
WARNING
Danger to life from electric shock due to improperly performed installation
The device uses voltage that is dangerous on contact as the electrical power supply. Potentially fatal
situations arise due to unsafe or incorrectly installation when reaching into the device.
►Ensure that the system is safely integrated into an emergency off safety circuit.
►Do not carry out any unauthorized modifications or changes to the device.
Risks during operation
WARNING
Danger to life from electric shock in the event of a fault
In the event of a fault, devices connected to the mains may be live. There is a danger to life from
electric shock when making contact with live components.
►Always keep the mains connection freely accessible so you can disconnect it at any time.
Risks during maintenance
WARNING
Danger to life from electric shock during maintenance and service work
The device is only completely de-energized when the mains plug has been disconnected and the
vacuum pump is at a standstill. There is a danger to life from electric shock when making contact with
live components.
►Before performing all work, switch off the main switch.
►Wait until the vacuum pump comes to a standstill (rotation speed =0).
►Disconnect all connection cables.
►Remove the mains plug from the device.
►Secure the device against unintentional restarting.
Risks during troubleshooting
WARNING
Danger to life from electric shock in the event of a fault
In the event of a fault, devices connected to the mains may be live. There is a danger to life from
electric shock when making contact with live components.
►Always keep the mains connection freely accessible so you can disconnect it at any time.

Connection selection at the electronic drive unit
The interface configuration for an electronic drive unit determines the connection
options for the DCU.
●Connection to an electronic drive unit with multi-function connector via connec-
tion cable or via adapter from the Pfeiffer Vacuum accessories
●Connection to an electronic drive unit directly at an available RS-485 interface
4.3.2 Earthing the device
●The ground terminal is obligatory for DCUs with integrated power supply pack.
●Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends connecting a suitable grounding cable to the DCU 002 to discharge
applicative interferences.
●Alternatively, the DCU 002 is grounded following installation in a rack.

Procedure for DCU with integrated power supply pack
1. Use the ground terminal at the back of the device (M4 female thread).
2. Route the connection in accordance with locally applicable provisions.
4.3.3 Connect DCU to a vacuum pump
DANGER
Danger to life from electric shock
Power supply packs that are not specified or are not approved will lead to severest injuries up to
death.
►Make sure that the power supply pack meets the requirements for double isolation between
mains input voltage and output voltage, in accordance with IEC 61010 and IEC 60950.
►Make sure that the power supply pack meets the requirements in accordance with IEC 61010
and IEC 60950.
►Where possible, use original power supply packs or only power supply packs that correspond
with the applicable safety regulations.
Observe the supreme operating control for the electronic drive unit interfaces
DIL switches in the connecting cable or bridges in the mating connector for the D-
Sub connector for the electronic drive unit enable operation of the pump without
control unit. This may cause priority conflicts with the RS-485 interface.
●Disconnect the mating connector from the "remote" connection prior to con-
necting a DCU to electronic drive unit TC 400, TC 1200 or TM 700.
●Switch off the supreme operating control (DIL switch S1/S2 = OFF) prior to
connecting a DCU to the electronic drive unit TC 110
