General safety and application information for Lenze capacitor modules
(according to Low−Voltage Directive 73/23/EWG)
General
During operation, Lenze capacitor modules can include live parts, depending on
their type of protection. Surfaces can be hot.
Non−authorised removal of the required cover, inappropriate use, incorrect
installation or operation create the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to
material assets.
For more information, please see 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).
According to the basic safety information, qualified, skilled personnel are
persons who are familiar with the assembly, installation, commissioning, and
operation of the product and who have the qualifications necessary for their
occupation.
Application as directed
Capacitor modules are components which are designed for the installation into
electrical systems or machinery. They are not to be used as domestic appliances,
but only for industrial purposes in accordance with EN 61000−3−2. The
documentation contains information about the compliance with the limit
values to EN 61000−3−2.
When installing capacitor modules into 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
98/37/EC (Machinery Directive); EN 60204 (VDE 0113) must be observed.
Commissioning (i.e. starting of operation as directed) is only allowed when
there is compliance with the EMC Directive (89/336/EEC).
The capacitor modules meet the requirements of the Low−Voltage Directive
73/23/EEC. The harmonised standards of EN 61800 −5−1 / DIN VDE 0160 apply
to the capacitor modules.
The technical data and supply conditions can be obtained from the nameplate
and the documentation. They must be strictly observed.
Warning: The capacitor modules are products with restricted availability in
accordance with EN 61800−3. These products can cause interferences in
residential areas. If capacitor modules are used in residential areas,
corresponding measures are required.
