The five safety rules
Five safety rules
DANGER
High voltages
For your personal safety and in order to prevent material damage it is essential that you
adhere to all the safety notices contained in your product documentation. Pay particular
attention to the safety notices on the product itself. When working on the equipment, always
observe the following five safety rules as defined by EN 50110-1 "Working in a voltage-free
state". Apply the five safety rules in the sequence stated before starting work.
1. Disconnect the system.
Disconnect the auxiliary circuits, for example anti-condensation heating.
Wait until the capacitors have discharged.
2. Lockout to protect against reconnection.
3. Make sure that the equipment is de-energized and in a no-voltage condition.
4. Ground and short-circuit.
5. Cover or enclose adjacent components that are still live.
When you have finished working on the equipment, apply the measures in reverse order.
Potentially fatal voltages occur when this equipment is in operation which can remain
present even after the inverter is switched off.
High voltages cause death, serious injury or material damage if the safety instructions are
not observed or if the equipment is handled improperly.
• Ensure that only qualified and authorized personnel perform work on the inverter.
• Always observe the five safety rules specified above whenever you are carrying out any
work on the device.

2.4 Notes for operator protection
During operation and shortly after the system has been switched off with the EMERGENCY
OFF button, high voltages are still present in the converter and its components. These
voltages may remain if the connection to the motor is not removed or grounded. This
danger exists with permanent-magnet synchronous motors and synchronous motors which
are not de-excited immediately. These voltages may remain if the connection to the motor
is not removed or grounded. High voltages cause death or serious injury if the safety
instructions are not observed or if the equipment is handled improperly.
Never open the covers or doors when the system is in operation or while the DC link
capacitors are still discharging (in the case of current-source DC link inverters:
commutation capacitors). The DC link capacitors (commutation capacitors) can take up to
10 minutes to discharge (or 5 minutes with compact devices) after the EMERGENCY OFF
button is actuated.
Depending on parameter settings and connection of external control devices, the inverter
can start up automatically when the line voltage is connected. This can result in death,
serious injury or material damage.
Confirm whether or not your system is capable of automatic starting and, if appropriate,
take measures to ensure personal safety and operational readiness at the driven machine.
Read the following information about personal protection.
The device complies with the safety requirements according to EN 61800-5-1 and UL 508 C.
Ensure that any transport, installation, operation or maintenance work is carried out by
accordance with EN 50110 "Operation of electrical systems".
For the purpose of these basic safety instructions, "skilled technical personnel" means
people who are familiar with the installation, mounting, commissioning and operation of the
product. They must be properly qualified for the tasks with which they are charged. Qualified
personnel must also be thoroughly familiar with all the safety-related instructions and
measures described in the product documentation.

2.4 Notes for operator protection
Inverters have live, moving or rotating parts.
Death or serious injury can result if any essential covers are removed without authorization
or in the case of improper use or incorrect installation or operation.
Always take all the necessary precautions before working on the device.
High voltages cause death or serious injury if the safety instructions are not observed or if
the equipment is handled improperly.
Voltages of more than 50 V are present when this unit is operational. These voltages may
remain for some time after switching off or as long as the motor is turning over.
Make sure that work is only carried out by qualified personnel under due observance of the
five safety rules, the information in these operating instructions, and the instructions on the
product itself.
Hazardous voltages (e.g. control voltage, signal voltage, supply voltage for heaters and
fans) can persist even after the inverter has been switched off. Contact with live parts can
result in death or serious injury.
Make sure that work is only carried out by qualified personnel under due observance of the
five safety rules, the information in these operating instructions, and the instructions on the
product itself.
If you carry out servicing work on the inverter without safely disconnecting the power
supply, serious injury or death due to electric shock can occur. The PTC input is not an
Emergency Off input which safely disconnects the inverter or the motor from the line
supply.
Safely and reliably disconnect the power supply before opening covers or terminal boxes at
the inverter. For example, use a main switch.

After the mains power has been switched off, high voltages still persist in the DC link
capacitors.
These cause death or serious injury if the safety instructions are not observed or if the
equipment is handled incorrectly.
The DC link capacitors require up to 10 minutes (5 minutes for compact units) before they
are discharged to a safe value (< 60 V).
After you have switched off the main power supply, do not touch the device or carry out any
maintenance work or repair work until the discharge time of 10 minutes (5 minutes for
compact devices) have elapsed.
Measure the voltage once the discharge time has elapsed.

2.5 Notes on liquid cooling
Certain components (e.g. the heat sink or filter reactor) can become very hot during
operation. These components can remain hot for a long time after operation.
The anti-condensation heating (optional) is switched on when the inverter is not operating
and the limit value set for the temperature control is reached. Once activated, the anticondensation heating can generate a great deal of heat.
Contact with hot surfaces can cause injuries (such as burns to the skin).
Never touch hot components just after you have switched off the inverter. Always take the
appropriate precautions before touching any components.
Short circuits can develop in electrical installations when liquid escapes from cooling
circuits. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
• Note the technical data of the liquid cooling system. You will find this data in Chapter
"Technical data of direct liquid cooling system" (Page 204) - and the technical data
sheet.
