Safety regulations

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

DANGER

Serious risk of injury through electric shock!

Due to the DC link capacitors, the DC link contacts "DC+ and DC-" and "RB+ and RB-" may be subject to dangerous voltages exceeding 875 VDC, even after the servo drive was disconnected from the supply network. Wait 5 minutes for the AX5101 - AX5125 and AX520x; 15 minutes for the AX5140/AX5160/AX5172; 30 minutes for the AX5190/AX5191; 45 minutes for the AX5192/AX5193 after disconnecting, and measure the voltage at the DC links again. The device is safe once the voltage has fallen below 50 V.

WARNING

Caution - Risk of injury!

Basically, electronic devices are not fail-safe. The machine builder is responsible for ensuring that the connected motors and the machine are brought into a safe state in the event of a fault in the drive system.

Notice
