Mechanical Installation 

 

WARNING! 

 

Danger of malfunction 

 

Fire hazard 

 

Explosion hazard 

Never operate the motor controller in water or in an aggressive, flammable, or explosive atmosphere. Always pay attention 
to the environmental conditions 

 

 

CAUTION! 

The length of the screw for fastening the top-hat rail clip must not exceed 4 mm, otherwise the controller might be destroyed 

 

The installation in a switch cabinet can be performed on a TS 35 mounting rail (EN 50022) by mounting a separately 
available top-hat rail clip 

– 

Accessories

 (p.14). 

An M3x4 screw is required to fix the top-hat rail clip - the screw must not be longer than 4 mm 

The distance to neighbouring components must be at least 10 mm. 

The heated air flow of other units and components must not be routed through the area of the motor control unit 

The device must be aligned vertically. For horizontal alignment, the maximum power must be reduced by 30% to prevent 
overheating 

3.2 

Electrical Installation 

The motor controller is constructed for use with direct currents. 
Every voltage mentioned in this manual can be regarded as direct current. 
 

 

WARNING! 

 

Risk of injury 

Make sure that an emergency shutdown can be performed at all times. 

 

 

CAUTION! 

 

Danger of electrical voltage 

 

Danger of electric arcs 

Always turn off the power before disconnecting or making electrical connections in the system. Secure the power supply 
against restart. 

After switching the device off, wait at least 5 minutes. Check for the absence of voltage before working on the system. 

Danger of improperly mounted electrical connections. 

Do not allow cables to be unmounted and ensure that all connections are secure. 

 

 

CAUTION! 

 

Electromagnetic alternating fields 

Electromagnetic fields around the live wires may cause interference. Lay the supply and motor cables separately from the 
control cables. Use the shortest possible cable lengths. Follow the instructions fo

Electromagnetic Compatibility

 (p. 4) 

 

 

NOTE 

An operating voltage above the voltage specified in the technical data, as well as a

 

voltage reversal might destroy the motor 

controller. 

Select an operating voltage within the voltage range specified in the technical data.
