Danger due to electric current
•It is generally forbidden to carry out work on electrical live parts. Protection class of the device when
open is IP00! It is possible to touch hazardous voltages directly.
•The safe isolation from the supply must be checked using a two-pole voltage detector.
•Even after disconnecting the mains voltage, life-threatening charges can appear between the
protective ground “PE” and the mains connection.
•The protective earth is conducting high discharge currents (dependent on the switching frequency,
current-source voltage and motor capacity). Earthing in compliance with EN specifications shall
therefore be observed even for testing and trial conditions (EN 50 178, Art. 5.2.11). Without
earthing, dangerous voltages can be present on the motor housing.
Waiting period at least 3 minutes!
•Through use of capacitors, danger of death exists even after switching off the device through
directly touching the energized parts or due to parts that have become energized due to faults.
•It is only permitted to remove the housing cover after waiting for 3 minutes once the line supply
cable has been shut down. Should measurement or adjustment work be unavoidable on the opened
unit while still powered, then this may only be performed by qualified personnel acquainted with the
thereby associated hazards.
Attention!
Even after switching off, dangerous temperatures can still occur in and on the device.
Attention!
Automatically restart after a power failure or mains disconnection!
