12.2 Safety instructions when mounting and installing the control cabinet

12.2 Safety instructions when mounting and installing the control cabinet
Danger to life if the fundamental safety instructions and remaining risks are not carefully
observed
If the fundamental safety instructions and remaining risks in Chapter 1 (Page 27) are not
observed, accidents involving severe injuries or death may occur.
• Adhere to the fundamental safety instructions.
• When assessing the risk, take into account residual risks.
Risk of injury as a result of foreign bodies in the device
Parts (e.g.: drilling chips, end sleeves) falling into the device can cause short-circuits and
damage the insulation. This can result in severe injury (arcing, loud bang, parts that are
flung out).
• Only perform installation and other work when the devices are current-free.
• Cover the ventilation slots when mounting and installing the control cabinet and remove

Electromagnetic compatibility

12.3.1

General information

The electromagnetic compatibility describes – according to the definition of the EMC
directive – the "capability of a device to work satisfactorily in the electromagnetic
environment without itself causing electromagnetic interference which is unacceptable for
other devices present in this environment". To guarantee that the appropriate EMC
standards are observed, the devices must demonstrate a sufficiently high noise immunity,
and also the emitted interference must be limited to acceptable values.
You can find the requirements relating to EMC:
● EN 61800-3
● "EMC Guidelines Configuration Manual (Article number 6FC5297-0AD30-0.P.)
Product standard EN 61800-3 describes the EMC requirements placed on Variable-speed
drive systems (power drive systems). A variable-speed drive system (or Power Drive System
- PDS) consists of a Control Unit, Line Module and Motor Module - as well as the associated
electric motors, encoders and connecting cables. The driven machine is not part of the drive
system.
