Only persons who are qualified and trained for the use and operation of the equipment

Before installing and commissioning the drive, read carefully this documentation and
strictly observe all technical, safety and wiring information, including identifying
labels placed on the drive (ratings). In case of doubt contact the Parker Hannifin
service centre.
•
Drives are to be intended as components for use in machine or systems. Therefore
they can be used only in machine or systems that are in compliance with the low
voltage directive 73/23/CEE (modified by 93/68/CEE) and with the electro-magnetic
compatibility directive 89/336/CEE.
•
Electronic equipments are generally not “fail-safe” components. Therefore the
machine manufacturers should carry out a risk analysis for the whole machine in order
to ensure that moving parts (motors) cannot bring personal injury in case of failures of
electronic devices.
