Product Related Information

 DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH
  • Disconnect 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.
  • Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm the power is off where and when indicated.
  • Replace and secure all covers, accessories, hardware, cables, and wires and confirm that a proper ground connection exists before applying power to the unit.
  • Use only the specified voltage when operating this equipment and any associated products.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
 DANGER
POTENTIAL FOR EXPLOSION
  • Only use this equipment in non-hazardous locations, or in locations that comply with Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D.
  • Do not substitute components which would impair compliance to Class I, Division 2.
  • Do not connect or disconnect equipment unless power has been removed or the location is known to be non-hazardous.
  • Do not use the USB port(s), if so equipped, unless the location is known to be non-hazardous.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
 WARNING
LOSS OF CONTROL
  • The designer of any control scheme must consider the potential failure modes of control paths and, for certain critical control functions, provide a means to achieve a safe state during and after a path failure. Examples of critical control functions are emergency stop and overtravel stop, power outage and restart.
  • Separate or redundant control paths must be provided for critical control functions.
  • System control paths may include communication links. Consideration must be given to the implications of unanticipated transmission delays or failures of the link.
  • Observe all accident prevention regulations and local safety guidelines.1
  • Each implementation of this equipment must be individually and thoroughly tested for proper operation before being placed into service.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

1 For additional information, refer to NEMA ICS 1.1 (latest edition), "Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation, and Maintenance of Solid State Control" and to NEMA ICS 7.1 (latest edition), "Safety Standards for Construction and Guide for Selection, Installation and Operation of Adjustable-Speed Drive Systems" or their equivalent governing your particular location.

 WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
  • Only use software approved by Schneider Electric for use with this equipment.
  • Update your application program every time you change the physical hardware configuration.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
