Warnings and safety information

In operation RS Snatch-Free Soft-Start Modules, depending on their
degree of protection, may have live, uninsulated and hot surfaces.
In case of improper use, incorrect installation or mal-operation, there is
a danger of serious personal injury and damage to property.
These RS Snatch-Free Soft-Start Modules can effect the movement of
dangerous machinery or moving constructions. The following safety
precautions must be taken before commissioning:
● Provide adequate means of preventing persons from coming within
the dangerous areas of machinery or moving constructions
● Verify that all measures to comply with the EMC DIRECTIVE are
complied with.
● Verify if all requirements of the LOW-VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE are
adhered to.
● Verify that all requirements of the MACHINERY DIRECTIVE are
adhered to and that safety-relevant equipment (e.g. EMERGENCY
STOP) is functioning correctly.
The successful and safe operation of this equipment is dependent on
proper transport, storage, planning and as installing well as
commissioning. Hazardous voltages are present in this electrical
equipment during operation.
Equipment showing transport or other damage, or with insulating
distances altered must not be used.
Never operate with the cover removed. Non-observance of the warning
or safety instructions can result in severe personal injury or property
damage.
Only qualified trained persons may work in an enclosure on or near
these controllers. For the purpose of this documentation a "qualified
trained person" is one who is familiar with the technical data,
recommendations for planning and installing, commissioning
instruction and recommended connections contained herein and the
hazards involved. In addition, this person has the following
qualifications:
● Is trained in the requirements to comply with the EMC DIRECTIVE
● Is trained in the requirements to comply with the LOW-VOLTAGE
DIRECTIVE
● Is trained in the requirement of the MACHINERY DIRECTIVE
(e.g. EN 60204-1)
● Is trained and authorized to energize, de-energize, clear, ground
and tag circuits and equipment in accordance with established
safety practices
● Is trained in the appropriate wiring and installation regulations
including local regulations where applicable.
● Is trained in the proper care and use of protective equipment in
accordance with established safety practices
● Is trained in rendering first aid
Suitable standards (IEC 364 or CENELEC 384 or DIN VDE 0100 and
IEC-Report 664 or DIN 0110) are to be used to establish if a person is
suitably qualified.
EC directives and regulations
'CE' marking
The 'CE' marking of the RS Snatch-Free Soft-Start Module is at the
date at which this Product Manual is issued valid for the EEC
DIRECTIVES
- 89/336/EEC EMC DIRECTIVE
- 73/23/EWG LOW-VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE
Manufacturers of apparatus and machines sold as functional units are
wholely responsible for issuing a Declaration of Conformity and
applying the 'CE' mark.
EMC directive
RS Snatch-Free Soft-Start Modules are components with a function
which is determined by the construction and layout of the complete
installation. It is the responsibility of user to ensure that the EMC
DIRECTIVE is adhered to. The following standards are particularly
relevant:
Product Standard for
AC semiconductor motor starters:
RF Interference:
Immunity:
Declaration of Conformity:
A Declaration of Conformity declaring conformance of these RS
Snatch-Free Soft-Start Modules with the EMC DIRECTIVE based on
the Product Standard EN60947-4-2 which references the above
standards for RF Interference and Immunity is available on request.
Particular reference should be made to the instructions for planning the
installation concerning interference suppression and immunity.
During continuous operation Interference Limit B for use in residential,
commercial and light industry supplied directly from public electricity
supply (including public buildings, banks, hospitals etc.) is adhered to.
Other important information:
The user should be conversant with the following issues:
- EMC 'CE' Responsibility,
recommendations for application of the EMC DIRECTIVE to
electronic power drive equipment
- Limit values of permissible EMC interference when used in:
- Residential areas (Class B)
- Industrial areas with own transformer station (Class A)
- Responsibility of manufacturers of apparatus and machines sold as
complete functional units
Low-voltage directive
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the complete installation
adheres to the LOW-VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE. The following standards
should be considered as is appropriate:
- Product Standard for
AC semiconductor motor starters:
- Installation with power
electronic equipment:
- Installation regulations
in electrical enclosures:
- Electrical equipment
of machines:
Declaration of Conformity:
A Declaration of Conformity declaring conformance of these RS
Snatch-Free Soft-Start Modules with the LOW-VOLTAGE DIRECTIVE
based on the product standard EN 60947-4-2 (1996) and prEN 50178
(1996) is available on request. Particular reference should be made to
the Technical Data and to the instructions for planning the installation.
Machinery directive
RS Snatch-Free Soft-Start Modules are components to be incorporated
into machinery and may not be operated alone. A Manufacturer's
Declaration is available on request. Pay particular reference to the
following standard:
- Electrical equipment of machines
