16 Safety instructions
General safety in installation, start-up and maintenance
These instructions are for all personnel that install the drive and do maintenance work on
it.
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or
damage to the equipment can occur.
•Secure the cabinet to the floor to prevent it from toppling over when you pull out drive
and LCL filter modules. The modules are heavy and have a high center of gravity.
•Wear protective gloves and long sleeves. Some parts have sharp edges.
•Beware of hot surfaces. Some parts, such as heatsinks of power semiconductors,
remain hot for a while after disconnection of the electrical supply.
•Beware of hot air exiting from the air outlets.
•Keep the drive in its package or protect it otherwise from dust and metal shavings from
drilling and grinding until you install it. Protect also the installed drive against dust and
metal shavings. Electrically conductive debris inside the drive can cause damage or
malfunction.
•Vacuum clean the area below the drive before the start-up to prevent the drive cooling
fan from drawing the dust inside the drive.
•Do not cover the air inlet and outlet when the drive is running.
•Make sure that there is sufficient cooling. See section Examining the installation site
(page 63).
•Keep the cabinet doors closed when the drive is powered. With the doors open, a risk
of a potentially fatal electric shock, arc flash or high-energy arc blast exists. If you
cannot avoid working on a powered drive, obey the local laws and regulations on live
working (including – but not limited to – electric shock and arc protection).
•Before you connect voltage to the drive, make sure that the cabinet doors are closed.
Keep the doors closed during operation.
•Before you adjust the drive operation limits, make sure that the motor and all driven
equipment can operate throughout the set operation limits.
•Before you activate the automatic fault reset or automatic restart functions of the drive
control program, make sure that no dangerous situations can occur. These functions
reset the drive automatically and continue operation after a fault or supply break. If
these functions are activated, the installation must be clearly marked as defined in
Safety instructions 17
2
IEC/EN 61800-5-1, subclause 6.5.3, for example, "THIS MACHINE STARTS
AUTOMATICALLY".
•The maximum number of drive power-ups is five in ten minutes. Too frequent power-
ups can damage the charging circuit of the DC capacitors.
•Make sure that any safety circuits (for example, emergency stop and Safe torque off)
are validated at start-up. See chapter The Safe torque off function(page 259). For
other safety functions, see their separate instructions.
•Handle the drive and LCL filter modules carefully:
•Use safety shoes with a metal toe cap to avoid foot injury.
•Lift the module with a lifting device only. Use the designated lifting points.
•Frame R11:
• Do not tilt the module. It is heavy and its center of gravity is high.
• Make sure that the module does not topple over when you move it on the
floor: Do not leave the module unattended on a sloping floor. Extend the
support legs: Press each leg a little down and turn it aside. Whenever
possible secure the module also with chains.
• Do not use the module installation ramp with plinth heights which exceed the
maximum height marked on the ramp. (The maximum plinth height is 50 mm
[1.97 in] when the telescopic ramp is fully retracted and 150 mm [5.91 in]
when the ramp is fully extended.)
• Secure the module installation ramp carefully.
18 Safety instructions
• To prevent the drive module from falling, attach its top lifting lugs with chains
to the cabinet frame before you push the module into the cabinet and pull it
from the cabinet. Work carefully preferably with help from another person.
Keep a constant pressure with one foot on the base of the module to prevent
the module from falling on its back.
Note:
•If you select an external source for the start command and it is on, the drive will start
immediately after fault reset unless you configure the drive for pulse start. See the
firmware manual.
•When the control location is not set to Local, the stop key on the control panel will not
stop the drive.
•Only authorized persons are allowed to repair a malfunctioning drive.

Electrical safety in installation, start-up and maintenance
Electrical safety precautions
These warnings are for all personnel who do work on the drive, motor cable or motor.
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or
damage to the equipment can occur. If you are not a qualified electrical
professional, do not do installation or maintenance work. Go through these steps
before you begin any installation or maintenance work.
1.Keep the cabinet doors closed when the drive is powered. With the doors open, a risk
of electric shock and/or arcing exists.
2.Clearly identify the work location.
3.Disconnect all possible voltage sources.
•Open the main disconnecting device (Q1) of the drive. Open the disconnector of
the supply transformer as the main disconnecting device of the drive does not
remove the voltage from the input busbars or V-meter (option +G334) of the drive.
•Make sure that reconnection is not possible. Lock the disconnectors to open
position and attach a warning notice to them.
•Disconnect any external power sources from the control circuits before you do
work on the control cables.
•After you disconnect the drive, always wait for 5 minutes to let the intermediate
circuit capacitors discharge before you continue.

Additional instructions and notes
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or
damage to the equipment can occur.
•If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do electrical installation or
maintenance work.
•Do not install a drive with an EMC filter (option +E202) on an IT (ungrounded) power
system or a high resistance-grounded (over 30 ohms) power system without
disconnecting the filter and/or the varistor screws.
•Do not connect the drive to a voltage higher than what is specified on the type
designation label.
•We do not recommend that you secure the cabinet by arc welding. If you have to, obey
the instructions on page 76.
•Do not do insulation or voltage withstand tests on the drive or its modules.
Note:
•The motor cable terminals of the drive are at a dangerous voltage when the input
power is on, regardless of whether the motor is running or not.
•The DC bus is at a dangerous voltage.
•External wiring can supply dangerous voltages to the relay outputs of the control units
of the drive.
24 Safety instructions
•The Safe torque off function does not remove the voltage from the main and auxiliary
circuits. The function is not effective against deliberate sabotage or misuse.
WARNING! Use a grounding wrist band when you handle the printed circuit
boards. Do not touch the boards unnecessarily. The boards contain components
sensitive to electrostatic discharge.
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, equipment malfunction
and damage to the fiber optic cables can occur.
•Handle fiber optic cables with care.
•When you unplug the cables, always hold the connector, not the cable itself.
•Do not touch the ends of the fibers with bare hands as the ends are extremely
sensitive to dirt.
•Do not bend the fiber optic cables too tightly. The minimum allowed bend radius is
35 mm (1.4”).
Additional instruction for DC connection
WARNING! Do not connect the drive DC link to a common DC system. The drive
will get damaged.
Grounding
These instructions are for all personnel who are responsible for the grounding of the drive.
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or
equipment malfunction can occur, and electromagnetic interference can increase.
•If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do grounding work.
•Always ground the drive, the motor and adjoining equipment. This is necessary for the
personnel safety. Proper grounding also reduces electromagnetic emission and
interference.
•Make sure that the conductivity of the grounding conductors is sufficient. See section
Selecting the power cables (page 86). Obey the local regulations.
•Connect the power cable shields to protective earth (PE) of the drive to make sure of
personnel safety.
•Make a 360° grounding of the power and control cable shields at the cable entries to
suppress electromagnetic disturbances.
•In a multiple-drive installation, connect each drive separately to the protective earth
(PE) busbar of the switch board or the transformer.
Safety instructions 25
Note:
•You can use power cable shields as grounding conductors only when their conductivity
is sufficient.
•As the normal touch current of the drive is higher than 3.5 mA AC or 10 mA DC, you
must use a fixed protective earth (PE) connection. See standard EN 61800-5-1,
4.3.5.5.2.

Additional instructions for permanent magnet motor
drives
Safety in installation, start-up and maintenance
These are additional warnings concerning permanent magnet motor drives. The other
safety instructions in this chapter are also valid.
WARNING! Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death and
damage to the equipment can occur.
•Do not do work on the drive when the permanent magnet motor is rotating. A rotating
permanent magnet motor energizes the drive including its input power terminals.
Before installation, start-up and maintenance work on the drive:
•Stop the motor.
•Disconnect the motor from the drive with a safety switch or by other means.
•If you cannot disconnect the motor, make sure that the motor cannot rotate during
work. Make sure that no other system, like hydraulic crawling drives, can rotate the
motor directly or through any mechanical connection like felt, nip, rope, etc.
•Measure that the installation is de-energized.
•Use a multimeter with an impedance of at least 1 Mohm.
•Make sure that the voltage between the drive output terminals (U2, V2, W2) and
the grounding (PE) busbar is close to 0 V.
•Make sure that the voltage between the drive input power terminals (L1, L2, L3)
and the grounding (PE) busbar is close to 0 V.
•Make sure that the voltage between the plus and minus busbars of the drive DC
link and the grounding (PE) busbar is close to 0 V.
•Install temporary grounding to the drive output terminals (U2, V2, W2). Connect the
output terminals together as well as to the PE.
•Make sure that the operator cannot run the motor over the rated speed. Motor
overspeed causes overvoltage which can damage the capacitors in the intermediate
circuit of the drive.
