(according to: Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC)
1. General
During operation, drive controllers may have, according to their type of protection, live,
bare, in some cases also movable or rotating parts as well as hot surfaces.
Unauthorized removal of the required cover, inappropriate use, incorrect installation or
operation, creates the risk of severe personal injury or damage to material assets.
Further information can be obtained from 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).
Qualified skilled personnel according to this basic safety information are persons who are
familiar with the erection, assembly, commissioning, and operation of the product and
who have the qualifications necessary for their occupation.
2. Application as directed
Drive controllers are components which are designed for installation in electrical systems
or machinery.
When installing in 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 89/392/EWG (Machinery Directive); EN 60204 must be
observed.
Commissioning (i.e. starting of operation as directed) is only allowed when there is
compliance with the EMC Directive (89/336/EWG).
The drive controllers meet the requirements of the Low-Voltage Directive 73/23/EWG. The
harmonized standards of the prEN 50178/ DIN VDE 0160 series together with EN
60439-1/DIN VDE 0660 part 500 and EN 60146/DIN VDE 0558 are applicable to drive
