General - Siemens SINAMICS G130 Operating Instructions Manual

General

The modular concept of SINAMICS G130 makes it impossible to describe each individual
combination. This section instead aims to provide some basic information and general rules
on the basis of which special device combinations can be constructed and to ensure
electromagnetic compatibility.
The SINAMICS G130 components are designed for installation in enclosures, which can
take the form of cabinet units or control boxes made of steel that provide protection against
shock and other environmental influences. These are also integrated in the EMC concept.
2.1 Safety information
Hazards during transport and replacement of components
When transporting the devices and replacing components, note the following:
 Some of the devices and components are heavy or top heavy.
 Due to their weight, the devices must be handled with care by trained personnel.
Serious injury or even death and substantial material damage can occur if the devices are
not lifted or transported properly.
Note
Prevent the ingress of foreign bodies into the device
When installing the cabinet unit, make sure that no foreign bodies – especially metallic
objects, such as drill swarf, wire end ferrules, or cable cut-offs – fall into the device. If
necessary, cover the ventilation slots.
Note
Comply with all safety regulations
The safety regulations governing shock protection must be observed. See also EN 60204-1.
