General Description
Certifications and Compliance
TUV Rheinland EC Type Examination Certification
TUV Rheinland has certified the DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option, when 
used in a PF70 or PF40P drive, is compliant with the requirements for 
machines defined in Annex I of the EC Directive 2006/42/EC, and that it 
complies with the requirements of the relevant standards listed below.
•
EN ISO 13849-1:2008 Safety of machinery - Safety related parts of 
control systems - Part 1: General principles for design
(DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option + drive achieves Category 3 / PL 
(d))
•
EN/IEC 61800-5-2:2007 Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems 
- Part 5-2 Safety requirements - Functional
(DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option + drive achieves SIL CL 2)
•
EN/IEC 62061:2005 Safety of machinery - Functional safety of 
safety-related electrical, electronic and programmable electronic control 
systems
•
IEC 61508 Part 1-7:1998 and 2000 Functional safety of electrical/
electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems - Parts 1-7
TUV also certifies that the DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option may be used 
in applications up to Category 3 / PL (d) according to EN ISO 13849-1 and 
SIL 2 according to EN/IEC 62061 / IEC 61508 / EN/IEC 61800-5-2.
TUV Rheinland certificate 01/205/0665/09 may be found at:
ATTENTION: Electrical Shock Hazard. Verify that all sources of AC and DC power are 
de-energized and locked out or tagged out in accordance with the requirements of 
ANSI/NFPA 70E, Part II.
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage on the bus 
capacitors has discharged before performing any work on the drive. Measure the DC bus 
voltage at the +DC and -DC terminals or test points (refer to your drive’s User Manual for 
locations). The voltage must be zero.
ATTENTION: In Safe Torque Off mode, hazardous voltages may still be present at the 
motor. To avoid an electric shock hazard, disconnect power to the motor and verify that 
the voltage is zero before performing any work on the motor.
ATTENTION: In the event of the failure of two output IGBT's in the drive, when the 
DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option has controlled the drive outputs to the off state, the 
drive may provide energy for up to 180° of rotation in a 2-pole motor before torque 
production in the motor ceases.
