Safety rules

The responsible staff must ensure that the application or use of the products described satisfy all the requirements for safety, including all the relevant laws, regulations and guidelines.

DANGER

Serious risk of injury through electric shock!

Due to the DC link capacitors dangerous voltage (> 890V_DC) may persist at the DC link contacts “ZK+ and ZK- (DC+ and DC-)“ and “RB+ and RB-“ after the servo drive has been disconnected from the mains supply. After disconnecting the servo drive wait at AX5101 - AX5125 and AX520x; 5 minutes, at AX5140/AX5160/AX5172; 15 minutes, at AX5190/AX5191; 30 minutes and at AX5192/AX5193; 45 minutes and measure the voltage at the DC link contacts ZK+ and ZK- (DC+ and DC-). The device is safe once the voltage has fallen below 50 V.

WARNING

Caution - Risk of injury through hot surfaces!

The temperature of the brake resistor housing surface may reach over 200 °C. Please ensure that the housing has cooled down below 40 °C before touching it.

UL-Listing!

It is essential to observe directives and standards if you wish to operate an AX5000 in an economic area that requires a UL-Listing.
