Emerson P/N 400518-02 User Manual

vii

This product is intended for professional incorporation into a complete system by qualified persons. If you install the product 
incorrectly, it may present a safety hazard. The product and system may use high voltages and currents, carry a high level of 
stored electrical energy, or are used to control mechanical equipment that can cause injury.

You must give close attention to the electrical installation and system design to avoid hazards either in normal operation or 
in the event of equipment malfunction. System design, installation, commissioning and maintenance must be carried out by 
personnel who have the necessary training and experience. Read and follow this safety information and this instruction 
manual carefully.

For the purpose of this manual and product, a “qualified person” is one who is familiar with the installation, construction and 
operation of the equipment and the hazards involved. In addition, this individual has the following qualifications:

Is trained and authorized to energize, de-energize, clear and ground and tag circuits and equipment in accordance with 
established safety practices.

Is trained in the proper care and use of protective equipment in accordance with established safety practices.

Is trained in rendering first aid.

This product is intended to be mounted in an enclosure that prevents access except by qualified persons and that prevents the 
ingress of contamination. This product is designed for use in an environment classified as pollution degree 2 in accordance 
with IEC664-1. This means that only dry, non-conducting contamination is acceptable.

It is essential that you give careful consideration to changes to drive settings. Depending on the application, a change could 
have an impact on safety. You must take appropriate precautions against inadvertent changes or tampering. Restoring default 
parameters in certain applications may cause unpredictable or hazardous operation.

Within the European Union all machinery in which this product is used must comply with Directive 89/392/EEC, Safety of 
Machinery.

The product has been designed and tested to a high standard, and failures are very unlikely. However the level of integrity 
offered by the product’s control function – for example stop/start, forward/reverse and maximum speed – is not sufficient for 
use in safety-critical applications without additional independent channels of protection. All applications where malfunction 
could cause injury or loss of life must be subject to a risk assessment, and further protection provided where needed.
