Low Voltage Installation Information
Certain practices must be followed when installing the AC motor drives in order to meet the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC
and as amended by Directive 93/68/EEC. The AC motor drives are components intended for installation within other electrical systems or ma-
chines. The system or machine builder must ensure their product complies with the applicable standards required for that equipment. The following
information applies to the AC motor drives as far as the Low Voltage Directive is concerned.
1) The AC motor drives are designed to be installed in a pollution degree level 2 environment.
2) All control inputs and outputs are isolated from AC power with a basic insulation rating. The minimum clearance and creepage distance
on the printed wiring board from the AC input to the control inputs and outputs is 3 millimeters. This is representative of an impulse
rating of 4 KV (1.2/50 us) as referenced in standard EN50178.
3) The control inputs and outputs may require an additional level of protection against direct contact if such protection is required by the
standards governing the overall system or machine and its intended environment. It is the machine builder’s responsibility to provide
this protection if needed.
4) Be sure to wire the AC power and earth ground connection as shown in the operator’s manual.
5) All cautions and warnings listed throughout the operator’s manual must be followed to insure safe system operation.
