1.1 Levels of hazard warnings

These operating instructions use the following hazard levels to indicate
potentially hazardous situations and important safety regulations:

DANGER

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury. Compliance with
the measures is mandatory.

WARNING

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury. Exercise extreme
caution while working.

CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury or damage of property.

NOTE

A potentially harmful situation can occur and, if not avoided, can
lead to property damage.

1.2 Staff qualification

The device may only be transported, unpacked, installed, operated,
maintained and otherwise used by qualified, trained and authorised
technical staff.
Only authorised specialists are permitted to install the device, to carry
out a test run and to perform work on the electrical installation.

1.3 Basic safety rules

Any safety hazards stemming from the device must be re-evaluated
once it is installed in the end device.
Observe the following when working on the unit:

; Do not make any modifications, additions or conversions to the

device without the approval of ebm-papst.

1.4 Electrical voltage

; Check the electrical equipment of the device at regular intervals, refer

to chapter 6.2 Safety test.

; Replace loose connections and defective cables immediately.

CAUTION
In the event of failure, there is electric voltage at the
rotor and impeller

The rotor and impeller are base insulated.

→ Do not touch the rotor and impeller once they are installed.

CAUTION
If control voltage is applied or a speed setpoint is stored,
the motor automatically restarts, e.g. after a power failure.

Danger of injury

→ Keep out of the danger zone of the device.

→ When working on the device, switch off the mains

supply voltage and secure the latter from being switched on
again.

→ Wait until the device stops.

→ After working on the device, remove any used tools or

other objects from the device.

CAUTION
The motor restarts automatically when operating voltage
is applied, e.g. after a power failure.

Danger of injury

→ Keep out of the danger zone of the motor.

→ When working on the motor, switch off the mains supply

voltage and secure the latter from being switched on again.

→ Wait until the motor stops.

1.5 Electromagnetic radiation

Interference from electromagnetic radiation is possible, e.g. in conjunction
with open and closed-loop control devices.
If unacceptable emission intensities occur when the fan is installed,
appropriate shielding measures have to be taken by the user.

NOTE
Electrical or electromagnetic interferences after
integrating the device in installations on the customer's
side.

→ Verify that the entire setup is EMC compliant.

1.6 Mechanical movement

DANGER
Flying parts

Missing safety devices may cause balancing weights or
broken fan blades to be ejected at high speeds, causing bodily
harm.

→ Take appropriate safety measures.

WARNING
Rotating device

Long hair, loose items of clothing and jewellery could become
entangled and pulled into the device. You could be injured.

→ Do not wear any loose clothing or jewellery while working

on rotating parts.

→ Protect long hair by wearing a cap.

WARNING
Flying parts

If the motor is operated with attached fan blades, missing safety
devices may cause balancing weights or broken fan blades to
be ejected and cause bodily injuries.

→ Take the appropriate safety measures; e.g. install guard

grilles.

→ Keep out of the exhaust zone.

1.7 Hot surface

CAUTION
High temperature at the electronics enclosure

Danger of burn injuries

→ Ensure that sufficient protection against accidental contact is

provided.

1.8 Transport

CAUTION
Transport of motor

Crushing hazard

→ Wear safety shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves.

→ Transport the motor in its original packaging only.

→ Secure the device so that it does not slip, e.g. by using a

clamping strap.

1.9 Storage

; Store the device, partially or fully assembled, in a dry and

weatherproof manner in the original packing in a clean environment.

; Protect the device from environmental impacts and dirt until the final

installation.

; We recommend storing the device for a maximum up to one year to

guarantee proper operation and longest possible service life.

; Even devices explicitly suited for outdoor use are to be stored as

described prior to being commissioned.

; Maintain the storage temperature, see

chapter 3.5 Transport and storage conditions.

; Please make sure that all screwed cable glands are fitted with

dummy plugs.
