Safety Instructions Overview This chapter states the safety instructions which must be fol- lowed when installing, operating and servicing the ACS 300. If neglected, physical injury and death may follow, or dam- age may occur to the AC drive, the motor and driven equip- ment. The material in this chapter must be studied before attempting any work on or with the unit. Warnings and Notes This manual distinguishes two sorts of safety instructions. Warnings are used to inform of conditions which can, if proper steps are not taken, lead to a serious fault condition, physical injury and death.
Notes are used when the reader is required to pay special attention or when there is addi- tional information available on the subject. Notes are less crucial than warnings, but should not be disregarded. Warnings Readers are informed of situations that can result in serious physical injury and/or serious damage to equipment with the following symbols: Dangerous Voltage Warning warns of situations in which a high voltage can cause physical injury and/or damage equipment. The text next to this symbol describes ways to avoid the danger. General Warning warns of situations which can cause physical injury and/or damage equipment by means other than electrical.
