5.1 Safety instructions

Phoenix Mecano Komponenten AG has built this controller according to the current state of the
art and existing safety regulations. Nonetheless, controllers and hand switches may pose risks to
persons and property if these are used incorrectly or not for the intended purpose or if the safety
instructions are disregarded. Correct operation and careful maintenance will guarantee optimum
manual control switch performance and availability. We therefore recommend that you pay par-
ticular attention to these sections.
This includes
•
understanding the safety instructions in the text
•
being familiar with the arrangement and function of the various operating and application op-
tions.
Only persons nominated for this task may operate controllers and hand switches. Work on and
with the controller may only take place in accordance with these instructions. General, national
and operating safety regulations have to be observed.
Responsibilities for the use of this controller must be regulated and observed unambiguously, so
that there cannot be any ill-defined competences with regard to safety.
Before putting into operation each time, the user must be sure that no persons or objects are in
the controller's danger area. The user should only operate the controller and hand switch if they
are in perfect condition. Any change is to be reported to the next person responsible immediately
and the operation is to be shut down.

The controller must not be operated with damage to the mains supply,
housing, motor lead, hand switch or any other control lines (PLC, PC, et
cetera).

In an emergency, pull the mains plug out of the controller in order to
shut down the connected drives.
