Safety information

General

Some parts of Lenze controllers (frequency inverters, servo inverters, DC controllers) can be live, moving

and rotating. Some surfaces can be hot. Non-authorized removal of the required cover, inappropriate

use, and incorrect installation or operation creates the risk of severe injury to personnel or damage to

equipment.
All operations concerning transport, installation, and commissioning as well as maintenance must be

carried out by qualified, skilled personnel (IEC 364 and CENELEC HD 384 or DIN VDE 0100 and IEC

report 664 or DIN VDE0110 and national regulations for the prevention of accidents must be observed).
According to this basic safety information, qualified skilled personnel are persons who are familiar with

the installation, assembly, commissioning, and operation of the product and who have the qualifications
necessary for their occupation.

Application as directed

Drive controllers are components which are designed for installation in electrical systems or machinery.

They are not to be used as appliances. They are intended exclusively for professional and commercial

purposes according to EN 61000-3-2. The documentation includes information on compliance with the

EN 61000-3-2.
When installing the drive controllers in machines, commissioning (i.e. the starting of operation as

directed) is prohibited until it is proven that the machine complies with the regulations of the EC Directive

2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive); EN 60204 must be observed.
Commissioning (i.e. starting of operation as directed) is only allowed when there is compliance with the

EMC Directive (2004/108/EC).
The drive controllers meet the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC. The harmonised

standards of the series EN 50178/DIN VDE 0160 apply to the controllers. NOTE: The availability of

controllers is restricted according to EN 61800-3. These products can cause radio interference in
residential areas. In this case, special measures can be necessary.

Installation

Ensure proper handling and avoid excessive mechanical stress. Do not bend any components and

do not change any insulation distances during transport or handling. Do not touch any electronic

components and contacts. Controllers contain electrostatically sensitive components, which can easily

be damaged by inappropriate handling. Do not damage or destroy any electrical components since this
might endanger your health!

Electrical connection

When working on live drive controllers, applicable national regulations for the prevention of accidents

(e.g. VBG 4) must be observed.
The electrical installation must be carried out according to the appropriate regulations (e.g. cable cross-

sections, fuses, PE connection). Additional information can be obtained from the documentation.
The documentation contains information about installation in compliance with EMC (shielding, grounding,

filters and cables). These notes must also be observed for CE-marked controllers. The manufacturer of

the system or machine is responsible for compliance with the required limit values demanded by EMC
legislation.
