Damaged devices are not to be installed. According to EN 61000-6-2 (industrial environment) According to EN 61000-3-2/3 According to EN 61000-6-4 (industrial environment) If several devices are switched in parallel on the supply side so that the line current of the arrangement is in the range of 1675 A, then this arrangement conforms to IEC 61000-3-12 provided that the short-circuit power Ssc at the connection point of the customer system to the public power system is greater than or equal to 120 times the rated output of the arrangement. It is the responsibility of the installation engineer or operator/ owner of the device to ensure, if necessary after consultation with the network operator, that this device is only connected to a connection point with a Ssc value that is greater than or equal to 120 times the rated output of the arrangement. CAUTION Possible damage to the device If the device slips during installation, serious damage can result. → Ensure that the device is securely positioned at its place of installation until all fastening screws have been tightened. 4.2 Electrical connection DANGER Voltage on the device Electric shock → Always connect a protective earth first. → Check the protective earth. DANGER Faulty insulation Risk of fatal injury from electric shock → Use only cables that meet the specified installation regulations for voltage, current, insulation material, capacity, etc. Translation of the original operating instructions → Route cables so that they cannot be touched by any rotating parts. DANGER Electrical charge (>50 µC) between phase conductor and protective earth connection after switching off supply with multiple devices connected in parallel. Electric shock, risk of injury → Ensure sufficient protection against accidental contact. Before working on the electrical hookup, short the supply and PE connections. CAUTION Voltage The device is a built-in component and has no disconnecting switch. → Only connect the device to circuits that can be switched off with an all-pole disconnection switch. → When working on the device, secure the system/ machine in which the device is installed so as to prevent it from being switched back on.

Recommendation: clearance > 10 cm (separate cable routing) NOTE Water ingress into wires or cables Water ingress at the customer end of the cable can damage the device. → Make sure the end of the cable is connected in a dry environment. ● The values are typically less than 250 mA. ● At the same time, the effective power in this operating state (operational readiness) is typically < 5 W. 4.2.4 Residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) Only universal residual current devices (type B or B+) are allowed. As with variable frequency drives, residual current devices cannot provide personal safety while operating the device. When the device's power supply is switched on, pulsed charging currents from the capacitors in the integrated EMC filter can lead to the residual current devices tripping without delay. We recommend the use of residual current circuit breakers with a trip threshold of 300 mA and delayed tripping (super-resistant, characteristic K). Only connect the device to circuits that can be switched off with an all-pole disconnection switch. 4.2.1 Requirements ; Check whether the data on the nameplate match the connection data. ; Before connecting the device, make sure the power supply matches the device voltage. ; Only use cables designed for the current level indicated on the nameplate. For determining the cross-section, note the sizing criteria according to EN 61800-5-1. The protective earth must have a cross-section equal to or greater than that of the phase conductor. We recommend the use of 105 °C cables. Ensure that the minimum cable cross-section is at least AWG 26 / 0.13 mm². 4.2.5 Leakage current For asymmetrical power systems or if a phase fails, the leakage current can increase to a multiple of the nominal value. 4.2.6 Locked-rotor protection Due to the locked-rotor protection, the starting current (LRA) is equal to or less than the nominal current (FLA). 4.2.2 Supply connection and fuses Assignment of supply cable cross-sections and their required fuses (line protection only, no equipment protection).
