2.2 Application as directed
Low−voltage machines are no household appliances, they are designed as components for
industrial or professional use in terms of IEC/EN 61000−3−2 only.
They comply with the harmonised standards of the series IEC/EN 60034.
Low−voltage 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. IEC/EN 60204−1).
It is only permissible to use low−voltage machines with IP23 protection or less outdoors if
special protective measures are taken.
The integrated brakes must not be used as safety brakes. It cannot be ruled out that
interference factors which cannot be influenced cause a brake torque reduction.
ƒ Drives
– ... must only be operated under the operating conditions and power limits
specified in this documentation.
– ... comply with the protection requirements of the EC Low−Voltage Directive.
Any other use shall be deemed inappropriate!
2.3 Improper use

– ... in explosion−protected areas
– ... in aggressive environments (acid, gas, vapour, dust, oil)
– ... in water
