Safety Instructions

WARNING
Danger of death and material damage caused by incorrect commissioning!
  • ▶Have the commissioning carried out by BST service personnel or authorized personnel only.
DANGER
Danger of death caused by the machine starting up!

Parts of your body could be crushed, cut, drawn in or hit.

  • ▶Switch off the machine completely and secure it against it being switched back on.
DANGER
Danger of death from electric shock!

Life threatening injuries caused by incomplete switching off or residual current.

  • ▶Electrically isolate the controller.
  • ▶Secure the power supply against being switched back on.
  • ▶Check that the unit is voltage-free.
  • ▶Earth the controller.
  • ▶Cover or fence off any adjacent parts that are still live.
  • ▶Open the housing of the controller only at zero potential.
WARNING
Danger of death from actuator movements!

During function tests, parts of your body may be crushed, cut or hit.

  • ▶Before starting the commissioning work, make sure that no persons are in the vicinity of the pivot / traversing area of machine components that are positioned by the actuator (e.g. pivoting frame guide, swiveling roller guide, rewind, unwind).
  • ▶Cordon off the work area before starting the commissioning work to prevent access by unauthorized persons.
NOTICE
Damage to the actuator when operating with transport safety device fitted!
  • ▶Before commissioning, remove the transport safety device on the actuator and guiding device.
NOTICE
Damage caused by operating the actuator in generator mode!

Operating the actuator in generator mode can lead to the destruction of the controller or the actuator.

  • ▶Provide suitable measures for removing or converting the resulting energy (e.g. external ballast circuit or electrically isolating the actuator from the controller).

The controller is not fitted with a ballast circuit (brake chopper). If the guiding device is moved by external mechanical forces (e.g. when inserting rolls using a forklift in winding applications), the actuator acts as a generator. In this case, suitable measures must be provided for removing or converting the resulting energy.

NOTICE
Damage to the touchscreen due to faulty operation!

Use of sharp, strong or coarse objects (e.g. pens, gloves) may damage the surface of the touchscreen.

  • ▶Touch the touchscreen only using bare fingers or a special input pen (touchpen).
