General Notes on Starting and Operating 

 

CAUTION 

 

Risk of electric shock if the protective earth conductor is not connected! 

If a protective earth conductor is not or not properly connected, dangerous touch voltages can 

occur on the M-687.UN in the case of malfunction or failure of the system. If there are touch 

voltages, touching the M-687.UN can result in minor injuries from electric shock. 

 

Connect the M-687.UN to a protective earth conductor (p. 16) before starting. 

 

Do 

not

 remove the protective earth conductor during operation. 

 

If the protective earth conductor has to be removed temporarily (e.g., in the case of 

modifications), reconnect the M-687.UN to the protective earth conductor before 

restarting. 

  

 

NOTICE 

 

Destruction of the piezo motor due to electric flashovers! 

Using the M-687.UN in environments that increase the electrical conductivity could lead to the 

destruction of the piezo motor by electric flashovers. Electric flashovers can be caused by 

moisture, high humidity, liquids, and conductive materials (e.g., metal dust). In addition, 

electric flashovers are also possible as a result of increased conductivity in certain air pressure 

ranges. 

 

Avoid operating the M-687.UN in environments that can increase the electrical 

conductivity. 

 

Operate the M-687.UN only under permissible ambient conditions and classifications 

(p. 39)

  

 

NOTICE 

 

Damage if the wrong controller is connected! 

Connecting an XY stage to an unsuitable controller can damage the XY stage or controller. 

 

Connect an XY stage with PILine® ultrasonic piezo motors only to a PILine® controller
