General Information

The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resulting from inappropriate, negligent
or incorrect installation or adjustment of the optional operating parameters of the equipment or from
mismatching the variable speed drive with the motor.
The contents of this guide are believed to be correct at the time of printing. In the interests of a
commitment to a policy of continuous development and improvement, the manufacturer reserves the
right to change the specification of the product or its performance, or the contents of the guide,
without notice.

Drive software version
This product is supplied with the latest version of software. If this product is to be used in a new or
existing system with other drives, there may be some differences between their software and the
software in this product. These differences may cause this product to function differently. This may
also apply to drives returned from a Control Techniques Service Centre.
The software version of the drive can be checked by looking at Pr 11.29 (or Pr 0.50) and Pr 11.34.
The software version takes the form of zz.yy.xx, where Pr 11.29 displays zz.yy and Pr 11.34 displays
xx, i.e. for software version 01.01.00, Pr 11.29 would display 1.01 and Pr 11.34 would display 0.
If there is any doubt, contact a Control Techniques Drive Centre.
Environmental statement
Control Techniques is committed to minimising the environmental impacts of its manufacturing
operations and of its products throughout their life cycle. To this end, we operate an Environmental
Management System (EMS) which is certified to the International Standard ISO 14001. Further
information on the EMS, our Environmental Policy and other relevant information is available on
request, or can be found at www.greendrives.com.
The electronic variable-speed drives manufactured by Control Techniques have the potential to save
energy and (through increased machine/process efficiency) reduce raw material consumption and
scrap throughout their long working lifetime. In typical applications, these positive environmental
effects far outweigh the negative impacts of product manufacture and end-of-life disposal.
Nevertheless, when the products eventually reach the end of their useful life, they can very easily be
dismantled into their major component parts for efficient recycling. Many parts snap together and can
be separated without the use of tools, while other parts are secured with conventional screws.
Virtually all parts of the product are suitable for recycling.
Product packaging is of good quality and can be re-used. Large products are packed in wooden
crates, while smaller products come in strong cardboard cartons which themselves have a high
recycled fibre content. If not re-used, these containers can be recycled. Polythene, used on the
protective film and bags for wrapping product, can be recycled in the same way. Control Techniques'
packaging strategy favours easily-recyclable materials of low environmental impact, and regular
reviews identify opportunities for improvement.
When preparing to recycle or dispose of any product or packaging, please observe local legislation
and best practice.
