Fundamental safety instructions
2.1 General safety instructions
Spread of fire from built-in devices
Built-in devices can cause a fire and a pressure wave in the event of a fault. Fire and smoke can
escape from the control cabinet and cause serious personal injury and property damage.
• Install built-in appliances in a robust metal control cabinet that is suitable for protecting
• Only operate built-in devices with the control cabinet doors closed.
• Ensure that smoke can only escape via controlled and monitored paths.
Active implant malfunctions due to electromagnetic fields
Converters generate electromagnetic fields (EMF) in operation. Electromagnetic fields may
interfere with active implants, e.g. pacemakers. People with active implants in the immediate
vicinity of an converter are at risk.
• As the operator of an EMF-emitting installation, assess the individual risks of persons with
• Observe the data on EMF emission provided in the product documentation.
Unexpected machine movement caused by radio devices or mobile phones
Using radio devices, cellphones, or mobile WLAN devices in the immediate vicinity of the
components can result in equipment malfunction. Malfunctions may impair the functional
safety of machines and can therefore put people in danger or lead to property damage.
• Therefore, if you move closer than 20 cm to the components, be sure to switch off radio
• Use the "SIEMENS Industry Online Support app" only on equipment that has already been
NOTICE
Damage to motor insulation due to excessive voltages
When operated on systems with grounded line conductors or in the event of a ground fault in
the IT system, the motor insulation can be damaged by the higher voltage against ground. If
you use motors that have insulation that is not designed for operation with grounded line
conductors, you must perform the following measures:
• IT system: Use a ground fault monitor and eliminate the fault as quickly as possible.
• TN or TT systems with grounded line conductor: Use an isolating transformer on the line
