GHB 13.0002-EN 3.1

Application as directed
Drive controllers are components designed for installation into electrical systems or

machines. They are not household appliances, but are only designed as components for

industrial or professional purposes in terms of EN 61000-3-2.
When installing the controllers into machines, commissioning (i.e. starting of operation

asdirected) is prohibited until it is proven that the machine complies with 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 technical data and information on connection conditions can be obtained from the

nameplate and the documentation. They must be observed in any case.
Warning: The availability of controllers is restricted according to EN 61800-3. These

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

are required.

Transport, storage
Please observe the notes on transport, storage and appropriate handling.
Observe the climatic conditions in accordance with EN 50178.

Installation
The controllers must be installed and cooled according to the instructions given in the

corresponding documentation.
Ensure proper handling and avoid mechanical stress. Do not bend any components and do

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

electroniccomponents 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 controllers, the valid 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 notes for the installation according to EMC (shielding,

earthing and installation of cables). Also observe these notes with regard to CE-labelled

drive contollers. The manufacturer of the system or the machine is responsible for the

compliance with the limit values required in connection with EMC legislation. In order to

observe the limit values for emitted radio interference which are effective at the

installation location, you have to mount the controllers into housings (e. g. control

cabinets). The housings have to enable an EMC-compliant installation. Observe in

particular that, for instance, the doors ofcontrol cabinetsare metallicallyconnected tothe

housing in a circumferential manner. Reduce openings or apertures by the housing to a

minimum.
