This equipment has been designed to operate outside of any hazardous location. Only install this
equipment in zones known to be free of hazardous atmosphere.
DANGER
POTENTIAL FOR EXPLOSION
Install and use this equipment in non-hazardous locations only.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Your application consists of a whole range of different interrelated mechanical, electrical, and electronic
components, the drive being just one part of the application. The drive by itself is neither intended to nor
capable of providing the entire functionality to meet all safety-related requirements that apply to your
application. Depending on the application and the corresponding risk assessment to be conducted by
you, a whole variety of additional equipment is required such as, but not limited to, external encoders,
external brakes, external monitoring devices, guards, etc.
As a designer/manufacturer of machines, you must be familiar with and observe all standards that apply
to your machine. You must conduct a risk assessment and determine the appropriate Performance
Level (PL) and/or Safety Integrity Level (SIL) and design and build your machine in compliance with all
applicable standards. In doing so, you must consider the interrelation of all components of the machine.
In addition, you must provide instructions for use that enable the user of your machine to perform any
type of work on and with the machine such as operation and maintenance in a safe manner.
The present document assumes that you are fully aware of all normative standards and requirements
that apply to your application. Since the drive cannot provide all safety-related functionality for your
entire application, you must ensure that the required Performance Level and/or Safety Integrity Level is
reached by installing all necessary additional equipment.
z Conduct a risk assessment according to EN ISO 12100 and all other standards that apply to your
application.
z Use redundant components and/or control paths for all critical control functions identified in your risk
assessment.
z If moving loads can result in hazards, for example, slipping or falling loads, operate the drive in
closed loop mode.
z Verify that the service life of all individual components used in your application is sufficient for the
intended service life of your overall application.
z Perform extensive commissioning tests for all potential error situations to verify the effectiveness of
the safety-related functions and monitoring functions implemented, for example, but not limited to,
speed monitoring by means of encoders, short circuit monitoring for all connected equipment,
correct operation of brakes and guards.
z Perform extensive commissioning tests for all potential error situations to verify that the load can be
brought to a safe stop under all conditions.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
A specific application note NHA80973 is available on hoisting machines and can be downloaded on

z Do not operate the product with unknown or unsuitable settings or data.
z Perform a comprehensive commissioning test.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
WARNING
LOSS OF CONTROL
z The designer of any control scheme must consider the potential failure modes of control paths and,
for critical control functions, provide a means to achieve a safe state during and after a path failure.
Examples of critical control functions are emergency stop, overtravel stop, power outage and
restart.
z Separate or redundant control paths must be provided for critical control functions.
z System control paths may include communication links. Consideration must be given to the
implications of unanticipated transmission delays or failures of the link.
z Observe all accident prevention regulations and local safety guidelines.
z Each implementation of the product must be individually and thoroughly tested for proper operation
before being placed into service.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
Fans may continue to run for a certain period of time even after power to the product has been
disconnected.
CAUTION

1 Measure the voltage (in AC mode and DC mode) on the mains input terminals and the
motor output terminals between the phases and between each phase to ground to verify
that no hazardous voltage is present.
2 Measure the voltage on the DC bus between the DC bus terminals (PA/+ and PC/-) to
verify that the voltage is less than 10 Vdc.
3 If there is still voltage present on the terminals or if the DC bus capacitors do not discharge
properly, contact your local Schneider Electric representative. Do not repair or operate the
product.
4 Verify that no other voltage is present in the drive system.
5 Ground and short-circuit the mains input terminals and the motor output terminals.
