Operating instructions
W3G500-GM06-H1
Translation of the original operating instructions
WARNING
Terminals and connections have voltage even with a
unit that is shut off
Electric shock
→ Wait five minutes after disconnecting the voltage at all poles
before opening the device.
CAUTION
In the event of failure, there is electric voltage at the
rotor and impeller
The rotor and impeller are base insulated.
→ Do not touch the rotor and impeller once they are installed.
CAUTION
If control voltage is applied or a speed setpoint is stored,
the motor will restart automatically, e.g. after a mains
failure.
Risk of injury
→ Keep out of the device hazard zone.
→ When working on the device, switch off the mains power
and ensure that it cannot be switched back on.
→ Wait until the device stops.
→ After working on the device, remove any tools used or
other objects from the device.
1.5 Safety and protective functions
DANGER
Guard missing and guard not functioning
Without a guard there is a risk of serious injury, for instance
when reaching into the device during operation. Loose parts or
items of clothing could be drawn in.
→ The device is a built-in component. As the operator, you are
responsible for ensuring that the device is secured
adequately.# Operate the device only with a fixed protective
device and guard grille.
→ Stop the device immediately if a protective device is
found to be missing or ineffective.
WARNING
Damage to guard grille, ejected parts
The guard grille is not designed to bear heavy loads. Parts
lying on or falling through the guard grille can be ejected by a
running fan.
→ Do not step on the guard grille or subject it to heavy loads.
→ Do not place any objects on the guard grille. In the area
around the fan, there must be sufficient space for people to
pass by the fan.
1.6 Electromagnetic radiation
Interference from electromagnetic radiation is possible, e.g. in conjunction
with open and closed-loop control devices.
If unacceptable emission intensities occur when the fan is installed,
appropriate shielding measures have to be taken by the user.
NOTE
Electrical or electromagnetic interferences after
integrating the device in installations on the customer's
side.
→ Verify that the entire setup is EMC compliant.
1.7 Mechanical movement
DANGER
Rotating device
Body parts that come into contact with the rotor and impeller
can be injured.
→ Secure the device against accidental contact.
→ Before working on the system/machine, wait until all
parts have come to a standstill.
WARNING
Rotating device
Long hair, dangling items of clothing, jewellery and similar items
can become entangled and be pulled into the device. Risk of
injury.
→ Do not wear any loose-fitting or dangling clothing or jewellery
while working on rotating parts.
→ Protect long hair with a cap.
1.8 Emission
WARNING
Depending on the installation and operating conditions,
a sound pressure level greater than 70 dB(A) may arise.
Danger of noise-induced hearing loss
→ Take appropriate technical safety measures.
→ Protect operating personnel with appropriate safety
equipment, e.g. hearing protection.
→ Also observe the requirements of local agencies.
1.9 Hot surface
CAUTION
High temperature at the electronics housing
Risk of burns
→ Ensure sufficient contact protection.
1.10 Transport
NOTE
Transport of device
→ Transport the device in its original packaging only.
→ Secure the device so that it does not slip, e.g. by using a
clamping strap.
