2.1 General safety and application information for Lenze capacitor modules
(according to Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EWG)
General
During operation, Lenze capacitor modules can include live parts, depending on their type
of protection. Surfaces can be hot.
If the required cover is removed or the modules are used inappropriately or installed or
operated incorrectly, severe damage to persons or material can occur.
For more information please see the documentation.
All operations concerning transport, installation, and commissioning as well as
maintenance must be carried out by qualified, skilled personnel (IEC 364 and
CENELEC HD 384 or DIN VDE 0100 and IEC report 664 or DIN VDE 0110 and national
regulations for the prevention of accidents must be observed).
According to this basic safety information, qualified, skilled personnel are persons who are
familiar with the assembly, installation, commissioning, and operation of the product and
who have the qualifications necessary for their occupation.
Application as directed
Capacitor modules are components which are designed for the installation into electrical
systems or machinery. They are not to be used as domestic appliances, but only for
industrial purposes according to EN 61000-3-2. The documentation contains information
about the compliance with the limit values to EN 61000-3-2.
When installing capacitor modules into machines, commissioning of the drive controllers
(i.e. the starting of operation as directed) is prohibited until it is proven that the machine
corresponds to the regulations of the EC Directive 98/37/EG (Machinery Directive);
EN 60204 (VDE 0113) must be observed.
Commissioning (i.e. starting of operation as directed) is only allowed when there is
compliance with the EMC Directive (89/336/EEC).
The capacitor modules meet the requirements of the Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EWG.
The harmonised standards of EN 50178 / DIN VDE 0160 apply to the capacitor modules.
The technical data and information on the connection conditions can be obtained from the
nameplate and the documentation. The instructions must be strictly observed.
Warning: The capacitor modules are products with restricted availability according to
EN 61800-3. These products can cause interferences in residential premises. If capacitor
modules are used in residential premises, corresponding measures are required.
Transport, storage
The notes on transport, storage and appropriate handling must be observed.
Observe the climatic conditions required to EN 50178.
