Safety Instructions
Overview | This chapter contains safety instructions which must be complied |
| with during installation, operation and maintenance of the power |
| converters series DCS 500B / DCF 500B or DCP 500B. If these in- |
| structions are not complied with, this may result in injuries (perhaps |
| even with fatal) or in damage to the power converter, the motor and |
| the driven machine. Before starting with any work whatsoever at or |

●All electrical installation and maintenance work on the thyristor power converter must be carried out by properly qualified staff who have been thoroughly trained in electrical engineering.
●The thyristor power converter and its adjacent units must be properly earthed by qualified professionals.
●You must NEVER perform any work on the thyristor power con- verter while it is still switched on. First switch the unit off, use a measuring instrument to make absolutely sure that the power converter has really been
●Due to external control circuits, there may be dangerously high voltages present at the thyristor power converter even after the line voltage has been switched off. So always work at the unit with appropriate caution!
