• Read and understand the standard user manual before operating the Altivar 12P drive. adjustment, repair, and maintenance must
be performed by qualified personnel.
• The user is responsible for compliance with all international and national electrical code requirements with respect to grounding of
all equipment.
• Many parts of this drive, including the printed circuit boards, operate at the line voltage. DO NOT TOUCH. Use only electrically
insulated tools.
• DO NOT touch unshielded components or terminal strip screw connections with voltage present.
• DO NOT short across terminals PA/+ and PC/– or across the DC bus capacitors.
• Before servicing the drive:
- Disconnect all power, including external control power that may be present.
- Place a “DO NOT TURN ON” label on all power disconnects.
- Lock all power disconnects in the open position.
- WAIT 15 MINUTES to allow the DC bus capacitors to discharge.
- Measure the voltage of the DC bus between the PA/+ and PC/– terminals to ensure that the voltage is less than 42 Vdc.
- If the DC bus capacitors do not discharge completely, contact your local Schneider Electric representative. Do not repair or
operate the drive
• Install and close all covers before applying power or starting and stopping the drive.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
DAMAGED DRIVE EQUIPMENT
Do not operate or install any drive or drive accessory that appears damaged.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
CAUTION
RISK OF HIGH TEMPERATURE ON METAL PARTS
The baseplate of the product can reach a temperature up to 90 °C (194 °F) in normal conditions.
• Do not touch the base of the drive.
When mounted, the immediate proximity of the plate can reach a temperature above 70 °C (158 °F) in normal operating conditions.
• Safety hot surfaces sticker must be applied accordingly to your local standards (ref. ANSI Z535.3-2007, ISO 7000-0535) nearby the
