2.1 Safety

2. COMMISSIONING AND USE

Servodrives present two main types of hazard :
- Electrical hazard
Servoamplifiers may contain non-insulated live AC or DC components.
Users are advised to guard against access to live parts before installing
the equipment.
Even after the electrical panel is de-energized, voltages may be
present for more than a minute, until the power capacitors have had
time to discharge.
Specific features of the installation need to be studied to prevent any
accidental contact with live components :
- Connector lug protection ;
- Correctly fitted protection and earthing features ;
- Workplace insulation (enclosure insulation humidity, etc.).
General recommendations :

Check the bonding circuit;

Lock the electrical cabinets;

Use standardised equipment.
- Mechanical hazard
Servomotors can accelerate in milliseconds. Moving parts must be
screened off to prevent operators coming into contact with them. The
working procedure must allow the operator to keep well clear of the
danger area.
All assembly and commissioning work must be done by qualified
personnel who are familiar with the safety regulations (C18510
authorization, standard VDE 0105 or IEC 0364).
- Burning hazard
The frame temperature can exceed 100°C.
