Verifying the Installation

Overview

Verify that the axis is installed correctly. For more information, refer to Specific Safety Information.

Pay special attention to:

oProperly bolted mechanical parts.

oInstallation and wiring of the axis. Make sure that the mains connection and the 24 V connection are wired correctly.

oConnection of all protective ground (earth) cables.

oUse of correct fuses.

oIsolation of all unused cable ends.

oInstallation and connection of all cables and connectors.

oInstallation of sensors.

oFunction of sensors as required.

oUnobstructed movement of the carriage with the contact plate for the sensors along the entire travel length.

ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH

oDisconnect all power from all equipment including connected devices prior to removing any covers or doors, or installing or removing any accessories, hardware, cables, or wires except under the specific conditions specified in the appropriate hardware guide for this equipment.

oAlways use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm the power is off where and when indicated.

oOperate electrical components only with a connected protective ground (earth) cable.

oAfter the installation, verify the secure connection of the protective ground (earth) cable to all electrical devices to ensure that connection complies with the connection diagram.

oBefore enabling the device, cover the live components to prevent contact.

oDo not touch the electrical connection points of the components when the module is energized.

oProvide protection against indirect contact (EN 50178).

oInsulate the unused conductors on both ends of the motor cable.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

LOOSE WIRING OR CABLING CAUSES ELECTRIC SHOCK

Tighten wiring or cabling connections in conformance with the torque specifications.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

ELECTRIC SHOCK DUE TO IMPROPER GROUNDING

oGround axis components in accordance with local, regional and/or national standards and regulations at a single, central point.

oVerify whether the motor is connected to the central ground.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Multipoint grounding is permissible if connections are made to an equipotential ground plane dimensioned to help avoid cable shield damage in the event of power system short-circuit currents.
