2.1 General safety and application notes for Lenze controllers
(to: Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC)
General
Depending on their degree of protection, some parts of Lenze controllers (frequency
inverters, servo inverters, DC controllers) and their accessory components can be live,
moving and rotating during operation. Surfaces can be hot.
Non-authorized removal of the required cover, inappropriate use, incorrect installation or
operation, creates the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to material assets.
For more information please see the documentation.
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 VDE 0110 and national regulations for the
prevention of accidents must be observed).
According tothisbasic safetyinformation, qualified, skilledpersonnel are persons whoare
familiar with the assembly, installation, 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 the installation into electrical
systems or machinery. They are not to be used as domestic appliances, but only for
industrial purposes according to EN 61000-3-2. The documentation contains information
about the compliance with the limit values to EN 61000-3-2.
When installing drive controllers into machines, commissioning of these controllers (i.e.
the starting of operation as directed) is prohibited until it is proven that the machine
corresponds to the regulations of the EC Directive 98/37/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 (89/336/EEC).
The drive controllers meet the requirements of the Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC. The
harmonised standards of the EN 50178/DIN VDE 0160 series apply to the controllers.
The technical data as well as the connection conditions can be obtained from the
nameplate and the documentation. They must be strictly observed.
Warning: Drive controllers are products with restricted availability according to EN
61800-3. These products can cause interferences in residential premises. If controllers are
used in residential premises, corresponding measures are required.
Transport, storage
The notes on transport, storage and appropriate handling must be observed.
The climatic conditions according to EN 50178 must be observed.
