Rockwell Automation FlexPak 3000 Power Module Version 4.2 - Manual (Page 7)

GENERAL NOTES
49’1340 e FlexPak 3000 1-1
NOTE: The term converter is used throughout this manual for the FlexPak 3000 Power Module.
1.1 Safety Instructions
DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION point out potential trouble areas.
• A DANGER alerts a person that high voltage is present which could result in severe bodily
injury or loss of life.
• A WARNING alerts a person to potential bodily injury if procedures are not followed.
• A CAUTION alerts a person that, if procedures are not followed, damage to, or destruction
of equipment could result.
DANGER: Before installing and/or operating this device, this manual must be understood by the
qualified electrical maintenance person who is familiar with this type of equipment and
the hazards involved. Failure to observe this precaution could result in bodily injury.
WARNING: Earth fault detection devices must not be used on this converter as the sole protection
measure against unintentional touching. The DC-component in the earth fault current
may inhibit the correct function of the fault detector.
CAUTION: Electronic converters cause disturbances to the supply network. The basic version of
this converter does not include any harmonic filters and may not fulfil the limits of the
national recommendations. The harmonic voltage disturbances produced by the
converter are dependent on the supply network impedance.
Machinery Directive
CAUTION: This inverter device is a component intended for implementation in machines or
systems for the capital goods industry.
The start-up of the inverter in the European market is not permitted until it has been
confirmed that the machine into which the inverters are built is in conformance with the
regulations of the Council Directive Machinery 98/37/EWG.
WARNING: To inhibit uncontrolled machine operation in case of the malfunction of the drive, the
user must provide an external emergency stop circuit, which ensures disconnection of
the power source from the motor.
This circuit must be hardwired with electro-mechanic components and shall not depend
on electronic logic or software. The stopping device (e.g. mushroom head pushbutton
with lock) must be accessible to the operator.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in bodily injury or loss of life.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC-Directive)
CAUTION : The operating of inverters in the European market is only permitted if the Council
Directive Electromagnetic Compatibility 89/336/EWG has been observed.
It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the machine or system to observe the
immunity and emission limits, requested by the Council Directive EMC in the European
market. Guidelines for the installation according EMC-regulations - for shielding,
grounding, filter arrangement as well as wiring instructions - are summarized in
Appendix H, ‘CE-Conformance’ of this Instruction manual.
