Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.

• Do not install the motors in hazardous zones if the motors have not been expressly and
explicitly designed and authorized for this purpose. Carefully observe any special additional
notes provided.
• Only use direct drives and their components for applications that Siemens has explicitly
speci󹪝ed.
• Protect the motors against dirt and contact with corrosive substances.

1.5Important product information
1FW6 external rotor built-in torque motors
14 Operating Instructions, 03/2023, A5E49196960B AC

WARNING
Danger to life for wearers of active implants due to magnetic and electrical 󹪝elds
Electric motors pose a danger to people with active medical implants, e.g. cardiac stimulators,
who come close to the motors.
• If you are a󹪜ected, stay a minimum distance of 300 mm from the motors (tripping threshold
for static magnetic 󹪝elds of 0.5 mT according to the Directive 2013/35/EU).
In conjunction with a suitable drive system, the built-in torque motors can be used as direct
drives for the following machine applications:
• Rotary and swivel axes
• Rotary tables, rotary indexing machines, sub-machine assemblies
WARNING
Injury and material damage by not observing machinery directive 2006/42/EC
There is a risk of death, serious injury and/or material damage if machinery directive
2006/42/EC is not carefully observed.
• The products included in the scope of delivery are exclusively designed for installation in a
machine. Commissioning is prohibited until it has been fully established that the end
product conforms with machinery directive 2006/42/EC.
• Please observe all safety instructions and provide these safety instructions to the end user.
Avoiding violation of protective rights
Carefully observe all national and international license terms when operating direct motors so
that no patent rights are violated.

Introduction
1.5Important product information
1FW6 external rotor built-in torque motors
16 Operating Instructions, 03/2023, A5E49196960B AC

Fundamental safety instructions 2
2.1 General safety instructions
WARNING
Electric shock and danger to life due to other energy sources
Touching live components can result in death or severe injury.
• Only work on electrical devices when you are quali󹪝ed for this job.
• Always observe the country-speci󹪝c safety rules.
Generally, the following steps apply when establishing safety:
1. Prepare for disconnection. Notify all those who will be a󹪜ected by the procedure.
2. Isolate the drive system from the power supply and take measures to prevent it being
switched back on again.
3. Wait until the discharge time speci󹪝ed on the warning labels has elapsed.
4. Check that there is no voltage between any of the power connections, and between any of
the power connections and the protective conductor connection.
5. Check whether the existing auxiliary supply circuits are de-energized.
6. Ensure that the motors cannot move.
7. Identify all other dangerous energy sources, e.g. compressed air, hydraulic systems, or
water. Switch the energy sources to a safe state.
8. Check that the correct drive system is completely locked.
After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness in the inverse sequence.
WARNING
Electric shock due to connection to an unsuitable power supply
When equipment is connected to an unsuitable power supply, exposed components may carry
a hazardous voltage. Contact with hazardous voltage can result in severe injury or death.
• 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.
1FW6 external rotor built-in torque motors
Operating Instructions, 03/2023, A5E49196960B AC 17

WARNING
Electric shock due to damaged motors or devices
Improper handling of motors or devices can damage them.
Hazardous voltages can be present at the enclosure or at exposed components on damaged
motors or devices.
• Ensure compliance with the limit values speci󹪝ed in the technical data during transport,
storage and operation.
• Do not use any damaged motors or devices.
WARNING
Electric shock due to unconnected cable shield
Hazardous touch voltages can occur through capacitive cross-coupling due to unconnected
cable shields.
• As a minimum, connect cable shields and the conductors of power cables that are not used
(e.g. brake cores) at one end at the grounded housing potential.
WARNING
Electric shock if there is no ground connection
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
Arcing when a plug connection is opened during operation
Opening a plug connection when a system is operation can result in arcing that may cause
serious 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.
NOTICE
Property damage due to loose power connections
Insu󹪟cient tightening torques or vibration can result in loose power connections. This can
result in damage due to 󹪝re, device defects or malfunctions.
• Tighten all power connections to the prescribed torque.
• Check all power connections at regular intervals, particularly after equipment has been
transported.
