Fundamental safety instructions
1.1.1
General safety instructions
WARNING
Electric shock and danger to life due to other energy sources
WARNING
Risk of electric shock and fire from supply networks with an excessively high impedance
Touching live components can result in death or severe injury.
• Only work on electrical devices when you are qualified for this job.
• Always observe the country-specific safety rules.
Generally, the following six steps apply when establishing safety:
1. Prepare for disconnection. Notify all those who will be affected by the procedure.
2. Isolate the drive system from the power supply and take measures to prevent it being
switched back on again.
3. Wait until the discharge time specified on the warning labels has elapsed.
4. Check that there is no voltage between any of the power connections, and between any
of the power connections and the protective conductor connection.
5. Check whether the existing auxiliary supply circuits are de-energized.
6. Ensure that the motors cannot move.
7. Identify all other dangerous energy sources, e.g. compressed air, hydraulic systems, or
water. Switch the energy sources to a safe state.
8. Check that the correct drive system is completely locked.
After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness in the inverse
sequence.
Excessively low short-circuit currents can lead to the protective devices not tripping or
tripping too late, and thus causing electric shock or a fire.
• In the case of a conductor-conductor or conductor-ground short-circuit, ensure that the
short-circuit current at the point where the inverter is connected to the line supply at
least meets the minimum requirements for the response of the protective device used.
• You must use an additional residual-current device (RCD) if a conductor-ground short
circuit does not reach the short-circuit current required for the protective device to
respond. The required short-circuit current can be too low, especially for TT supply
systems.

WARNING
Risk of electric shock and fire from supply networks with an excessively low impedance
WARNING
Electric shock if there is no ground connection
WARNING
Electric shock due to connection to an unsuitable power supply
WARNING
Electric shock due to equipment damage
WARNING
Electric shock due to unconnected cable shield
1.1 Fundamental safety instructions
Excessively high short-circuit currents can lead to the protective devices not being able to
interrupt these short-circuit currents and being destroyed, and thus causing electric shock
or a fire.
• Ensure that the prospective short-circuit current at the line terminal of the inverter does
not exceed the breaking capacity (SCCR or Icc) of the protective device used.
For missing or incorrectly implemented protective conductor connection for devices with
protection class I, high voltages can be present at open, exposed parts, which when
touched, can result in death or severe injury.
• Ground the device in compliance with the applicable regulations.
When equipment is connected to an unsuitable power supply, exposed components may
carry a hazardous voltage that might result in serious injury or death.
• Only use power supplies that provide SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV-
(Protective Extra Low Voltage) output voltages for all connections and terminals of the
electronics modules.
Improper handling may cause damage to equipment. For damaged devices, hazardous
voltages can be present at the enclosure or at exposed components; if touched, this can
result in death or severe injury.
• Ensure compliance with the limit values specified in the technical data during transport,
storage and operation.
• Do not use any damaged devices.
Hazardous touch voltages can occur through capacitive cross-coupling due to unconnected
cable shields.
• As a minimum, connect cable shields and the conductors of power cables that are not

WARNING
Arcing when a plug connection is opened during operation
WARNING
Electric shock due to residual charges in power components
NOTICE
Property damage due to loose power connections
WARNING
Spread of fire from built-in devices
WARNING
Active implant malfunctions due to electromagnetic fields
control cabinets
1.1 Fundamental safety instructions
Opening a plug connection when a system is operation can result in arcing that may cause
serious injury or death.
• Only open plug connections when the equipment is in a voltage-free state, unless it has
been explicitly stated that they can be opened in operation.
Because of the capacitors, a hazardous voltage is present for up to 5 minutes after the
power supply has been switched off. Contact with live parts can result in death or serious
injury.
• Wait for 5 minutes before you check that the unit really is in a no-voltage condition and
start work.
Insufficient tightening torques or vibration can result in loose power connections. This can
result in damage due to fire, device defects or malfunctions.
• Tighten all power connections to the prescribed torque.
• Check all power connections at regular intervals, particularly after equipment has been
transported.
In the event of fire outbreak, the enclosures of built-in devices cannot prevent the escape of
fire and smoke. This can result in serious personal injury or property damage.
• Install built-in units in a suitable metal cabinet in such a way that personnel are
protected against fire and smoke, or take other appropriate measures to protect
personnel.
• Ensure that smoke can only escape via controlled and monitored paths.
Inverters generate electromagnetic fields (EMF) in operation. People with active implants in
the immediate vicinity of this equipment are at particular risk.
• As the operator of an EMF-emitting installation, assess the individual risks of persons
with active implants. The following clearances are usually adequate:
– No clearance to closed control cabinets and shielded MOTION-CONNECT supply
cables
– Forearm length (approx. 35 cm clearance) to distributed drive systems and open

WARNING
Unexpected movement of machines caused by radio devices or mobile phones
NOTICE
Damage to motor insulation due to excessive voltages
WARNING
Fire due to inadequate ventilation clearances
WARNING
Unrecognized dangers due to missing or illegible warning labels
1.1 Fundamental safety instructions
When radio devices or mobile phones with a transmission power > 1 W are used in the
immediate vicinity of components, they may cause the equipment to malfunction.
Malfunctions may impair the functional safety of machines and can therefore put people in
danger or lead to property damage.
• If you come closer than around 2 m to such components, switch off any radios or mobile
phones.
• Use the "SIEMENS Industry Online Support app" only on equipment that has already
been switched off.
When operated on systems with grounded line conductor or in the event of a ground fault in
the IT system, the motor insulation can be damaged by the higher voltage to ground. If you
use motors that have insulation that is not designed for operation with grounded line
conductors, you must perform the following measures:
• IT system: Use a ground fault monitor and eliminate the fault as quickly as possible.
• TN or TT systems with grounded line conductor: Use an isolating transformer on the line
side.
Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating of components with subsequent
fire and smoke. This can cause severe injury or even death. This can also result in
increased downtime and reduced service lives for devices/systems.
• Ensure compliance with the specified minimum clearance as ventilation clearance for
the respective component.
Dangers might not be recognized if warning labels are missing or illegible. Unrecognized
dangers may cause accidents resulting in serious injury or death.
• Check that the warning labels are complete based on the documentation.
• Attach any missing warning labels to the components, where necessary in the national
language.
• Replace illegible warning labels.

WARNING
Malfunctions of the machine as a result of incorrect or changed parameter settings
1.1 Fundamental safety instructions
Incorrect voltage/insulation tests can damage the device.
• Before carrying out a voltage/insulation check of the system/machine, disconnect the
devices as all converters and motors have been subject to a high voltage test by the
manufacturer, and therefore it is not necessary to perform an additional test within the
system/machine.
Inactive or non-adapted safety functions can trigger unexpected machine movements that
may result in serious injury or death.
• Observe the information in the appropriate product documentation before
commissioning.
• Carry out a safety inspection for functions relevant to safety on the entire system,
including all safety-related components.
• Ensure that the safety functions used in your drives and automation tasks are adjusted
and activated through appropriate parameterizing.
• Perform a function test.
• Only put your plant into live operation once you have guaranteed that the functions
relevant to safety are running correctly.
As a result of incorrect or changed parameterization, machines can malfunction, which in
turn can lead to injuries or death.
• Protect the parameterization (parameter assignments) against unauthorized access.
• Handle possible malfunctions by taking suitable measures, e.g. emergency stop or
emergency off.

3.1 Preparing for installation
If the device is subjected to low temperatures or extreme fluctuations in temperature
during transportation, for example in cold weather, moisture could build up on or inside
the HMI device (condensation). Moisture causes a short circuit in electrical circuits and
damages the device.
• Store the device in a dry place.
• Bring the device to room temperature before starting it up.
• Do not expose the device to direct heat radiation from a heating device.
• If condensation develops, wait approximately 12 hours or until the device is
completely dry before switching it on.
7. Please keep the enclosed documentation in a safe place. It belongs to the device. You
need the documentation when you commission the device for the first time.
8. Write down the identification data of the device.
The device can be attached horizontally or vertically on a DIN rail or to a wall.
Take into account the permitted temperature range for operation that depends on the
mounting position in accordance with Section "Ambient conditions (Page 86)".
