Safety instructions

Contents of this chapter

This chapter contains the safety instructions which you must obey when you install,

start up, operate and do maintenance work on the drive. If you ignore the safety

instructions, injury, death or damage can occur.

Use of warnings and notes

Warnings tell you about conditions which can cause injury or death, or damage to the

equipment. They also tell you how to prevent the danger. Notes draw attention to a

particular condition or fact, or give information on a subject.

The manual uses these warning symbols:

WARNING!

Electricity warning tells about hazards from electricity which can cause injury or

death, or damage to the equipment.

WARNING!

General warning tells about conditions, other than those caused by electricity,

which can cause injury or death, or damage to the equipment.

WARNING!

Electrostatic sensitive devices warning tells you about the risk of electrostatic

discharge which can cause damage to the equipment.

Safety instructions 15

General safety in installation, start-up and maintenance

These instructions are for all personnel who do work on the drive.

WARNING!

Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the

equipment can occur.

• Keep the drive in its package until you install it. After unpacking, protect the drive

from dust, debris and moisture.

• Use the required personal protective equipment: safety shoes with metal toe cap,

safety glasses, protective gloves and long sleeves, etc. Some parts have sharp

edges.

• Beware of hot surfaces. Some parts, such as heatsinks of power semiconductors,

and brake resistors, remain hot for a while after disconnection of the electrical supply.

• Vacuum clean the area around the drive before the start-up to prevent the drive

cooling fan from drawing the dust inside the drive.

• Make sure that debris from drilling, cutting and grinding does not enter the drive

during the installation. Electrically conductive debris inside the drive may cause

damage or malfunction.

• Make sure that there is sufficient cooling. See the technical data.

• Before you connect voltage to the drive, make sure that all covers are in place. Do

not remove the covers when voltage is connected.

• Before you adjust the drive operation limits, make sure that the motor and all driven

equipment can operate throughout the set operation limits.

• Before you activate the automatic fault reset or automatic restart functions of the

drive control program, make sure that no dangerous situations can occur. These

functions reset the drive automatically and continue operation after a fault or supply

break. If these functions are activated, the installation must be clearly marked as

defined in IEC/EN 61800-5-1, subclause 6.5.3, for example, "THIS MACHINE

STARTS AUTOMATICALLY".

• The maximum drive power cycles is five times in ten minutes. Power cycling the

drive too often can damage the charging circuit of the DC capacitors.

• If you have connected safety circuits to the drive (for example, Safe torque off or

emergency stop), validate them at start-up. See separate instructions for the safety

circuits.

• Beware of hot air exiting from the air outlets.

• Do not cover the air inlet or outlet when the drive is running.

16 Safety instructions

Note:

• If you select an external source for the start command and it is on, the drive will

start immediately after fault reset unless you configure the drive for pulse start. See

the firmware manual.

• Only authorized persons are allowed to repair a malfunctioning drive.

Electrical safety in installation, start-up and maintenance

￭ Electrical safety precautions

These electrical safety precautions are for all personnel who do work on the drive, motor

cable or motor.

WARNING!

Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the

equipment can occur.

If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do installation or

maintenance work.

Go through these steps before you begin any installation or maintenance work.

1. Clearly identify the work location and equipment.

2. Disconnect all possible voltage sources. Make sure that re-connection is not possible.

Lock out and tag out.

• Open the main disconnecting device of the drive.

• If you have a permanent magnet motor connected to the drive, disconnect the

motor from the drive with a safety switch or by other means.

• Disconnect any dangerous external voltages from the control circuits.

• After you disconnect power from the drive, always wait 5 minutes to let the

intermediate circuit capacitors discharge before you continue.

3. Protect any other energized parts in the work location against contact.

4. Take special precautions when close to bare conductors.

5. Measure that the installation is de-energized.

• Use a multimeter with an impedance greater than 1 Mohm.

• Make sure that the voltage between the drive input power terminals (L1, L2, L3)

and the grounding (PE) busbar is close to 0 V.

• Make sure that the voltage between the drive output terminals (T1/U, T2/V,

T3/W) and the grounding (PE) busbar is close to 0 V.

• Make sure that the voltage between the drive DC terminals (R+/UDC+ and

UDC-) and the grounding terminal (PE) is close to 0 V.

Safety instructions 17

6. Install temporary grounding as required by the local regulations.

7. Ask the person in control of the electrical installation work for a permit to work.

￭ Additional instructions and notes

WARNING!

Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the

equipment can occur.

If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do installation or

maintenance work.

• Make sure that the electrical power network, motor/generator, and environmental

conditions agree with the drive data.

• Do not do insulation or voltage withstand tests on the drive.

• If you have a cardiac pacemaker or other electronic medical device, keep away from

the area near motor, drive, and the drive power cabling when the drive is in operation.

There are electromagnetic fields present which can interfere with the function of

such devices. This can cause a health hazard.

Note:

• The motor cable terminals of the drive are at a dangerous voltage when the input

power is on, regardless of whether the motor is running or not.

• When the input power is on, the drive DC bus is at a dangerous voltage.

If brake chopper and resistor are in use, they are at a dangerous voltage.

• External wiring can supply dangerous voltages to the relay outputs of the control

units of the drive.

• The Safe torque off function does not remove the voltage from the main and auxiliary

circuits. The function is not effective against deliberate sabotage or misuse.

Printed circuit boards

WARNING!

Use a grounding wrist band when you handle printed circuit boards. Do not touch

the boards unnecessarily. The boards contain components sensitive to electrostatic

discharge.

￭ Grounding

These instructions are for all personnel who are responsible for the grounding of the

drive.

WARNING!

Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or equipment

malfunction can occur, and electromagnetic interference can increase.

18 Safety instructions

If you are not a qualified electrical professional, do not do grounding work.

• Always ground the drive, the motor and adjoining equipment. This is necessary for

the personnel safety. Proper grounding also reduces electromagnetic emission and

interference.

• Make sure that the conductivity of the protective earth (PE) conductors is sufficient.

See the electrical planning instructions of the drive. Obey the local regulations.

• Connect the power cable shields to protective earth (PE) terminals of the drive to

make sure of personnel safety.

• Make a 360° grounding of the power and control cable shields at the cable entries

to suppress electromagnetic disturbances.

• In a multiple-drive installation, connect each drive separately to the protective earth

(PE) busbar of the power supply.

Note:

• You can use power cable shields as grounding conductors only when their

conductivity is sufficient.

• As the normal touch current of the drive is higher than 3.5 mA AC or 10 mA DC,

you must use a fixed protective earth (PE) connection. The minimum size of the

protective earth conductor must comply with the local safety regulations for high

protective earth conductor current equipment. See standard IEC/EN 61800-5-1

(UL 61800-5-1) and the electrical planning instructions of the drive.

To comply with standard IEC/EN 61800-5-1 (UL 61800-5-1)

• use a protective earth conductor with a minimum cross-sectional area of 10 mm

Cu or 16 mm

Al (as an alternative when aluminum cables are permitted),

• use a second protective earth conductor of the same cross-sectional area as

the original protective earth conductor,

• use a device that automatically disconnects the supply if the protective earth

conductor is damaged.

If the protective earth conductor is separate (that is, it does not form part of the input

power cable or the input power cable enclosure), the minimum cross-sectional area

must be:

• 2.5 mm

when the conductor is mechanically protected,

• 4 mm

when the conductor is not mechanically protected.

Safety instructions 19

General safety in operation

These instructions are for all personnel that operate the drive.

WARNING!

Obey these instructions. If you ignore them, injury or death, or damage to the

equipment can occur.

• If you have a cardiac pacemaker or other electronic medical device, keep away from

the area near motor, drive, and the drive power cabling when the drive is in operation.

There are electromagnetic fields present which can interfere with the function of

such devices. This can cause a health hazard.

• Give a stop command to the drive before you reset a fault. If you have an external

source for the start command and the start is on, the drive will start immediately

after the fault reset, unless you configure the drive for pulse start. See the firmware

manual.

• Before you activate the automatic fault reset or automatic restart functions of the

drive control program, make sure that no dangerous situations can occur. These

functions reset the drive automatically and continue operation after a fault or supply

break. If these functions are activated, the installation must be clearly marked as

defined in IEC/EN 61800-5-1, subclause 6.5.3, for example, "THIS MACHINE

STARTS AUTOMATICALLY".

Note:

• The maximum drive power cycles is five times in ten minutes. Power cycling the

drive too often can damage the charging circuit of the DC capacitors. If you need

to start or stop the drive, use the control panel keys or commands through the I/O

terminals of the drive.
