4.2.2

Protection of the brake unit

Stop!

The brake units contain electrostatically sensitive components.
• Prior to assembly and service operations, the personnel

must be free of electrostatic charge:
- They can discharge themselves by touching the PE

fixing screw or another grounded metal part in the
control cabinet.

• In the event of condensation connect the brake unit to

mains voltage only after the visible humidity has
evaporated.

4.2.3

Specification of cables used

• The cables used must comply with the approvals required

at the site (eg. UL).

• The prescribed minimum cross-sections of PE conductors

must be maintained in all cases. The cross-section of the
PE conductor must be at least as large as the
cross-section of the power connections (VDE 0160).

• The screening quality of a cable is determined by

- a good screen connection
- a low screen resistance

Use only screens with tin-plated or nickel-plated copper
braid!
Screens of steel braid are not suitable.

- the degree of coverage of the screen braid:

at least 70% to 80% with a coverage angle of 90

°

Note!

The screens are only required to comply with existing standards
(e.g. VDE 0160, EN 50178).
