1.1. Warnings
•
Power cables can carry a high voltage, even when the motor is not in motion. Disconnect
the Solo Whistle from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
•
The Solo Whistle servo drive contains grounding conduits for electric current protection.
Any disruption to these conduits may cause the instrument to become hot (live) and
dangerous.
•
After shutting off the power and removing the power source from your equipment, wait at
least 1 minute before touching or disconnecting parts of the equipment that are normally
loaded with electrical charges (such as capacitors or contacts). Measuring the electrical
contact points with a meter, before touching the equipment, is recommended.
1.2. Cautions
•
The Solo Whistle servo drive contains hot surfaces and electrically-charged components
during operation.
•
The maximum DC power supply connected to the instrument must comply with the
parameters outlined in this guide.
•
When connecting the Solo Whistle to an approved 11 to 95 VDC auxiliary power supply,
connect it through a line that is separated from hazardous live voltages using reinforced or
double insulation in accordance with approved safety standards.
•
Before switching on the Solo Whistle, verify that all safety precautions have been observed
and that the installation procedures in this manual have been followed.
•
Do not clean any of the Solo Whistle drive's soldering with solvent cleaning fluids of pH
greater than 7 (8 to 14). The solvent corrodes the plastic cover causing cracks and eventual
damage to the drive's PCBs.
Elmo recommends using the cleaning fluid Vigon-EFM which is pH Neutral (7).
