1.3  Transport and storage 
T
ransport and stora
g
e are to be done appropriate in the ori
g
inal packin
g
. Store the
units only in dry rooms, which are protected against dust and moisture and are sub-
j
ected to little temperature deviations only. Observe the climatic conditions accordin
g
to standard EN 50178 and to the information on the label of the ori
g
inal packin
g
. The 
duration of storage without connection to the admissible reference volta
g
e may no
t
exceed one year. 
1.4  Handling and positioning 
Warning!  Damaged or destroyed components may not be put into operation be-
cause they may be a health hazard. 
  The frequency inverters are to be used accordin
g
 to the documentation, the directives 
and the standards. Handle carefully and avoid mechanical overload. Do not bend the
components or chan
g
e the isolation distances. Do not touch electronic components o
r
contacts. The devices contain construction elements with a risk of electrostatic, which 
can easily be damaged by improper handling. Any use of damaged or destroyed com-
ponents shall be considered as a non-compliance with the applicable standards. Do 
not remove any warning signs from the device. 
1.5  Electrical connection 
Warning!  Before any assembly or connection work, de-energize the frequency in-
verter. Make sure that the frequency inverter is de-energized. 
Do not touch the sockets, because the capacitors may still be charged. 
Comply with the information 
g
iven in the operatin
g
 instructions and on
the frequency inverter label. 
 While workin
g
 on the frequency inverters, obey the applicable standards BGV A2 (VBG
4), VDE 0100 and other national directives. Comply with the information in the docu-
mentation on electrical installation and the relevant directives. Responsibility for com-
pliance with and examination of the limit values of the EMC product standard EN 
61800-3 for variable-speed electrical drive mechanisms is with the manufacturer o
f
the industrial plant or machine. 
T
he documentation contains information on installation correct for EMC. The cables
connected to the frequency inverters may not be subjected to an isolation test with a 
high test voltage without previous circuit measures. 
1.6  Operation information 
Warning!  Before commissionin
g
 and the start of the intended operation, attach all
the covers and check the sockets. Check additional monitoring and pro-
tective devices pursuant to EN 60204 and the safety directives applicable 
in each case (e.
g
. Workin
g
 Machines Act, Accident Prevention Directives
etc.). 
No connection work may be performed, while the system is in operation. 
1.7  Maintenance and service 
Warning!  Unauthorized openin
g
 and improper interventions can lead to physical 
in
j
ury or dama
g
e to property. Repairs on the frequency inverters may
only be done by the manufacturer or persons authorized by the latter.
