Introduction
The drive can experience reduced service life if operated outside of its design
parameters. Ensure the operating environment is within specifications. Daily
inspection and regular maintenance will maximize the service life of the
equipment.
ATTENTION: Servicing energized Medium Voltage Motor Control Equipment
can be hazardous. Severe injury or death can result from electrical shock, bump,
or unintended actuation of controlled equipment. Recommended practice is to
disconnect and lockout control equipment from power sources, and release
stored energy, if present.For countries following NEMA standards, refer to
National Fire Protection Association Standard No. NFPA70E, Part II and (as
applicable) OSHA rules for Control of Hazardous Energy Sources (Lockout/
Tagout) and OSHA Electrical Safety Related Work Practices safety related work
practices, including procedural requirements for lockout/tagout, and
appropriate work practices, personnel qualifications and training requirements,
where it is not feasible to de-energize and lockout or tagout electric circuits and
equipment before working on or near exposed circuit parts.For countries
following IEC standards, refer to local codes and regulations.
ATTENTION: Use suitable personal protective equipment (PPE) per local codes
or regulations. Failure to do so may results in severe burns, injury, or death.
ATTENTION: Always perform Power Lockout procedure before servicing
equipment. Verify with a hot stick or appropriate voltage measuring device that
all circuits are voltage free. Failure to do so may result in severe burns, injury, or
death.
ATTENTION: These tasks require person(s) skilled in this type of detailed work.
