Safety notes
These components may only be operated in closed housings or in higher-level control
cabinets with protective covers that are closed, and when all of the protective devices are
used.
These components may only be handled by qualified and trained technical personnel who
are knowledgeable and observe all of the safety information and instructions on the
components and in the associated technical user documentation.
When carrying out a risk assessment of a machine in accordance with the EU Machinery
Directive, the machine manufacturer must consider the following residual risks associated
with the control and drive components of a PDS.
1. Unintentional movements of driven machine components during commissioning,
2. Exceptional temperatures as well as emissions of noise, particles, or gas caused by, for
3. Hazardous shock voltages caused by, for example:
4. Electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic fields generated in operation that can pose a
5. Release of environmental pollutants or emissions as a result of improper operation of the
