0.5 Connection, Protection & Setup
Personnel Protection
• Installation, operation, and maint enance shall be performed by Qualified
Personnel Only.
• A thorough understanding of the V200 will be required before the installation, operation,
or maintenance of the V200.
• Rotating machinery and live conductors can be hazardous and shall not come into
contact with humans. Personnel should be protected from all rotating machinery and
electrical hazards at all times. Depending on its program, the V200 can initiate the start
and stop of rotating machinery.
• Insulators, machine guards, and electrical safeguards may fail or be defeated by the
purposeful or inadvertent actions of workers. Insulators, machine guards, and electrical
safeguards are to be inspected (and tested where possible) at installation and
periodically after installation for potential hazardous conditions.
• Do not allow personnel near rotati ng mac hinery. Warning signs to this effect shall be
posted at or near the machinery.
• Do not allow personnel near electri cal conductors. Human contact with electrical
conductors can be fatal. Warning signs to this effect shall be posted at or near the
hazard.
• Personal protection equipment shall be provided and used to protect employees from
any hazards inherent to system operation or maintenance.
System Setup Requirements
• When using the V200 as an integral part of a larger system, it is the responsibility of the
V200 installer or maintenance personnel to ensure that there is a fail-safe in place (i.e.,
an arrangement designed to switch the system to a safe condition if there is a fault or
failure).
• System safety features should be employed and designed into the integrated system in a
manner such that system operation, even in the event of system failure, will not cause
harm or result in personnel injury or sy stem damage (i.e., E-Off, Auto-Restart settings,
System Interlocks, etc.).
• The programming setup and system configuration of the V200 may allow it to start a
motor unexpectedly. A familiarity with Auto-restart settings is a requirement to use this
product.
• Improperly designed or improperly installed system interlocks may render the motor
unable to start or stop on command.
