WARNING
Caution - Risk of injury!
Use of the TwinSAFE drive option card other than for the intended purpose as
described below is not permitted!
The AX5801 TwinSAFE drive option card is intended exclusively for use in the safety option card slot of a
servo drive from the AX5000 series. The cards are installed together with the servo drive as components
in electrical systems and machinery and may only be used in this way.

servo drive.
An attempt to install the AX5801-0200 into AX5000 servo drives of an older generation
can lead to irreparable damage to the AX5000.

link contacts X02 even after disconnecting the servo drive from the mains supply. Wait
5 minutes after disconnection and measure the voltage on the DC link contacts DC+
and DC-. The device is safe once the voltage has fallen below 50 V.
