Application as directed

Controllers are components which are designed for installation

in electrical systems or machines. They are not to be used as

domestic appliances, but only for industrial purposes according

to EN 61000-3-2.

When controllers are installed into machines, commissioning

(i.e. starting of the 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 the operation as directed) is only

allowed when there is compliance with the EMC Directive

(2004/108/EC).

The controllers meet the requirements of the Low-Voltage

Directive 2006/95/EC. The harmonised standard EN 61800-5-1

applies to the controllers.

The technical data and supply conditions can be obtained from

the nameplate and the documentation. They must be strictly

observed.

Warning: Controllers are products which can be installed in drive

systems of category C2 according to EN 61800-3. These products

can cause radio interferences in residential areas. In this case,

special measures can be necessary.
Transport, storage

Please observe the notes on transport, storage, and appropriate

handling. Observe the climatic conditions according to the

technical data.
Installation

The controllers must be installed and cooled according to the

instructions given in the corresponding documentation.

The ambient air must not exceed degree of pollution 2 according

to EN 61800-5-1.

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 electrostatic sensitive devices 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 controllers, observe the applicable

national regulations for the prevention of accidents (e.g. VBG 4).

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.

This documentation contains information on installation in

compliance with EMC (shielding, earthing, filter, and cables).

These notes must also be observed for CE-marked controllers.

The manufacturer of the system is responsible for compliance

with the limit values demanded by EMC legislation. The

controllers must be installed in housings (e.g. control cabinets) to

meet the limit values for radio interferences valid at the site of

installation. The housings must enable an EMC-compliant

installation. Observe in particular that e.g. the control cabinet

doors have a circumferential metal connection to the housing.

Reduce housing openings and cutouts to a minimum.

Lenze controllers may cause a DC current in the PE conductor. If

a residual current device (RCD) is used for protection against

direct or indirect contact for a controller with three-phase

supply, only a residual current device (RCD) of type B is

permissible on the supply side of the controller. If the controller

has a single-phase supply, a residual current device (RCD) of type

A is also permissible. Apart from using a residual current device

(RCD), other protective measures can be taken as well, e.g.

electrical isolation by double or reinforced insulation or isolation

from the supply system by means of a transformer.
Operation

If necessary, systems including controllers must be equipped

with additional monitoring and protection devices according to

the valid safety regulations (e.g. law on technical equipment,

regulations for the prevention of accidents). The controllers can

be adapted to your application. Please observe the

corresponding information given in the documentation.

After the controller has been disconnected from the supply

voltage, all live components and power terminals must not be

touched immediately because capacitors can still be charged.

Please observe the corresponding stickers on the controller.

All protection covers and doors must be shut during operation.

Notes for UL-approved systems with integrated controllers:

UL warnings are notes that only apply to UL systems. The

documentation contains special UL notes.

Certain controller versions support safety functions (e.g. "Safe

torque off", formerly "Safe standstill") according to the

requirements of the EC Directive 2006/42/EC. The notes on the

integrated safety system provided in this documentation must

be observed.
Maintenance and servicing

The controllers do not require any maintenance if the prescribed

operating conditions are observed.
Disposal

Recycle metal and plastic materials. Ensure professional disposal

of assembled PCBs.
The product-specific safety and application notes given in these

instructions must be observed!
