4 PREPARING THE PRODUCT FOR USE

4.1

Transport and storage

The product shall be stored in an environment meeting the following conditions:

storing temperature between -40 and +70 degrees Celsius
relative humidity below 95%, no condensation

After unpacking the component, ensure that there are no visible signs of transport damage.

4.2

Safety precautions before installation

Before installing, check that there are no signs of damage on the frequency converter.

DANGER

THE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SHALL BE PERFORMED ONLY BY
PERSONNEL AUTHORIZED BY THE MANUFACTURER. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT
INSTALLATIONS MADE BY UNAUTHORISED PERSONNEL ARE INCORRECT,
AND CARRY AN INCREASED RISK OF AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

DANGER

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, THE FREQUENCY
CONVERTER SHALL ALWAYS BE GROUNDED WITH A GROUNDING
CONDUCTOR CONNECTED TO THE GROUNDING TERMINAL.

DANGER

THE FREQUENCY CONVERTER’S POWER UNIT COMPONENTS ARE LIVE
WHEN THE CONVERTER IS CONNECTED TO MAINS. THE VOLTAGE IS
DANGEROUS, AND DIRECT CONTACT WITH IT MAY CAUSE DEATH OR
SERIOUS INJURY.

WARNING

The frequency converter remains live while running a motor energized by a
process. The motor acts as a generator that feeds energy to the frequency
converter, creating a risk of an electrical shock.

CAUTION

The cover of the frequency converter shall not be opened. The converter’s
components may be damaged by a static voltage discharge from, for example,
fingers.
