1.1
General safety instructions
DANGER
Danger to life due to live parts and other energy sources
Touching live parts can result in death or severe injury.
•Only work on electrical equipment if you are appropriately qualified.
•Always observe the country-specific safety rules for all work.
Generally, six steps apply when establishing safety:
1. Prepare for shutdown and notify all those who will be affected by the procedure.
2. Disconnect the machine from the supply.
–Switch off the machine.
–Wait until the discharge time specified on the warning labels has elapsed.
–Check that it really is in a zero-voltage state, from phase conductor to phase
conductor and phase conductor to protective conductor.
–Check that every auxiliary circuit is de-energized.
–Ensure that the motors cannot move.
3. Identify all other dangerous energy sources, e.g. compressed air, hydraulic systems, or
water.
4. Isolate or neutralize all hazardous energy sources by closing switches, grounding or
short-circuiting or closing valves, for example.
5. Take measures to prevent reconnection of the energy sources.
6. Ensure that the correct machine is completely interlocked.
After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness by following the
above steps in the reverse order.
WARNING
Danger to life through a hazardous voltage when connecting an unsuitable power supply
In the event of a fault, touching live parts can result in death or severe injury.
•Only use power supplies that provide SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV
(Protective Extra Low Voltage) output voltages for all connections and terminals of the
electronics modules.

Safety information
1.1 General safety instructions
Inverter cabinet units
18 Operating Instructions, 12/2014, A5E32923362A
WARNING
Danger to life when live parts are touched on damaged devices
Improper handling of devices can cause damage.
For damaged devices, hazardous voltages can be present at the enclosure or at exposed
components; if touched, this can result in death or severe injury.
•Ensure compliance with the limit values specified in the technical data during transport,
storage and operation.
•Do not use any damaged devices.
WARNING
Danger to life through electric shock due to unconnected cable shields
Hazardous touch voltages can occur through capacitive cross-coupling due to unconnected
cable shields.
•As a minimum, connect cable shields and the cores of power cables that are not used at
one end at the grounded housing potential.
WARNING
Danger to life due to electric shock when not grounded
For missing or incorrectly implemented protective conductor connection for devices with
protection class I, high voltages can be present at open, exposed parts, which when
touched, can result in death or severe injury.
•Ground the device in compliance with the applicable regulations.
WARNING
Danger to life due to electric shock when opening plug connections in operation
When opening plug connections in operation, arcs can result in severe injury or death.
•Only open plug connections when the equipment is in a voltage-free state, unless it has
been explicitly stated that they can be opened in operation.
WARNING
Danger to life due to fire spreading if the housing is inadequate
Fire and smoke development can cause severe injury or material damage.
•Install devices without a protective housing in a metal control cabinet (or protect the
device by another equivalent measure) in such a way that contact with fire inside and
outside the device is prevented.
•Ensure that smoke can escape via designated paths.

Operating Instructions, 12/2014, A5E32923362A 19
WARNING
Danger to life through unexpected movement of machines when using mobile wireless
devices or mobile phones
Using mobile radios or mobile phones with a transmit power > 1 W closer than approx. 2 m
to the components may cause the devices to malfunction, influence the functional safety of
machines therefore putting people at risk or causing material damage.
•When close to components, switch off all wireless devices and mobile phones.
WARNING
Danger to life due to the motor catching fire in the event of insulation overload
There is a greater load on the motor insulation through a ground fault in an IT system. A
possible result is the failure of the insulation with a risk for personnel through smoke
development and fire.
•Use a monitoring device that signals an insulation fault.
•Correct the fault as quickly as possible so the motor insulation is not overloaded.
WARNING
Danger to life due to fire if overheating occurs because of insufficient ventilation clearances
Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating with a risk for personnel through
smoke development and fire. This can also result in increased downtime and reduced
service lives for devices/systems.
•Ensure compliance with the specified minimum clearance as ventilation clearance for
the respective component. They can be found in the dimension drawings or in the
"Product-specific safety instructions" at the start of the respective section.
WARNING
Danger of an accident occurring due to missing or illegible warning labels
Missing or illegible warning labels can result in death or serious injury.
•Check the warning labels are complete based on the documentation.
•Attach any missing warning labels to the components, in the national language if
necessary.
•Replace illegible warning labels.
NOTICE
Device damage caused by incorrect voltage/insulation tests
Incorrect voltage/insulation tests can damage the device.
•Before carrying out a voltage/insulation check of the system/machine, disconnect the
devices as all converters and motors have been subject to a high voltage test by the
manufacturer, and therefore it is not necessary to perform an additional test within the
system/machine.
