1. Safety regulations/
installation notes
• When working on the device, observe the national
safety rulesandregulationsfor the prevention of
accidents.
• Disregarding these safety regulationsmay result in
death, seriouspersonal injury or damage to equip-
ment.
• The device may only be startedup, assembled,
modifiedor retrofittedby an authorizedelectrician.
• Before working on the device, disconnect the power.
• For emergency stop applications, amachine must
be preventedfromrestarting automatically by a
higher-level control system!
• During operation, partsof electrical switching
devicescarry hazardousvoltages.
• During operation, the protective coversmust not be
removedfromthe electric switchgear!
• Keep the instruction sheet in asafe place.
• The device isan associateditemof equipment and
must not be installedin potentially explosive areas.
Adhere to the relevant safety regulationswhen set-
ting up andoperating the relevant equipment.
• The safety regulationsapplicable when motorsare
usedin the Ex areamust be compliedwith (ATEX
directive 2014/34/EU).
• If the „Automatic RESET“ mode isused, the drive
isswitchedon again after the cooling time has
expired- if acontrol signal isstill present. The cool-
ing time is20 minutes. For applicationsin the Ex-
protection area, automatic restart isnot permitted.
• The device may not be subjectedto mechanical
andthermal loads that exceedthe thresholds
specifiedin the operating manual. If required, the
device shouldbe installedin an appropriate housing
with suitable protection (e.g. IP54) according to
IEC 60529/EN 60529 to provide protection against
mechanical andelectrical damage. Where dustsare
present, the device must be installedin asuitable
housing (at least IP64) according to EN 61241.
• Installation shouldbe carriedout following the
instructionsprovidedin the operating instructions.
The circuitsinside the device must not be accessed
during operation.
• The itemcannot be repairedby the user andhas to
be replacedby an equivalent device. Repairsmay
only be carriedout by the manufacturer.
• The safety dataandfeaturesaccording to the EC-
type examination certificate must be observed.
• The device carriesout diagnosticson the functions
when the drive isswitchedon or when it isswitched
off. In addition, an authorizedelectrician or askilled
worker who iswell acquaintedwith the relevant
standards can conduct the „Motor overload
protection“ safety function test. For thistest, the
drive must be operatedwith right or left rotation
(forwardor reverse running), andthe current flow in
aconductor interrupted(e.g. by removing the fuse
in the L1 or L3 phase). The hybridmotor starter then
switchesoff the drive within 1.5 to 2s. The LEDsfor
right or left rotation (forwardor reverse running) go
out andthe ERR-LED andthe reply output are set.
• The device must be securedwith the help of an ac-
cess protection during safety-relatedapplications.
• Only use power supply unitswith safe isolation and
PELV in accordance with EN 50178/VDE 0160 (PELV).

secondary sides.
Scope of use
• In circuitsin potentially dust-explosive areas of
zones21 and22, it must be guaranteedthat the
equipment connectedto thiscircuit complieswith
category 2D or 3D or iscertifiedas such.
• Thisisaproduct for environment A (industry). In
environment B (household), thisdevice can cause
undesiredradio interference; in such acase, the
user may be under obligation to implement appropri-
ate measures.
• MOTUS® has been developedfor the operation of
AC motorswith sinusoidal, symmetrical load andfor
evenly distributed3-phase ohmic loads. The hybrid
motor starter has areversing function, current
monitoring andsafety function. The internal locking
circuit andload wiring reduce the amount of cable
required.
