2.2 General safety and application instructions for Lenze motors
(According to: Low-Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC)
General
Low-voltage machines have dangerous, live and rotating parts as well as possibly hot
surfaces.
Synchronous machines induce voltages at open terminals during operation.
All operations serving transport, connection, commissioning and maintenance are to be
carried out by skilled, responsible technical personnel (observe EN 50110-1 (VDE 0105-1)
and IEC 60364). Improper handling can cause severe injuries or damages.
Lowvoltage machines may only be operated under the conditions that are indicated in the
section ”Application as directed”.
The conditions at the place of installation must comply with the data given on the
nameplate and in the documentation.
Application as directed
Lowvoltage machines are intended for commercial installations. They comply with the
harmonised standards of the series IEC/EN 60034 (VDE 0530). Their use in potentially
explosive atmospheres is prohibited unless they are expressly intended for such use
(follow additional instructions).
Lowvoltage machines are components for installation into machines as defined in the
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Commissioning is prohibited until the conformity of the
end product with this directive has been established (follow i. a. EN 60204-1).
Lowvoltage machines with IP23 protection or less are only intended for outdoor use when
applying special protective features.
The integrated brakes must not be used as safety brakes. It cannot be ruled out that factors
which cannot be influenced, such as oil ingress due to a defective Aside shaft seal, cause
a brake torque reduction.
Transport, storage
Damages must be reported immediately upon receipt to the forwarder; if required,
commissioning must be excluded. Tighten screwedin ring bolts before transport. They are
designed for the weight of the lowvoltage machines, do not apply extra loads. If necessary,
use suitable and adequately dimensioned means of transport (e. g. rope guides).
Remove transport locking devices before commissioning. Reuse them for further
transport. When storing lowvoltage machines, ensure a dry, dustfree and lowvibration
(v
eff
 0.2 mm/s) environment (bearing damage while being stored).
