u Safety MessagesDANGERHeed the safety messages in this manual.Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.The operating company is responsible for any injuries or equipment damage resulting from failure to heed the warnings inthis manual.Electrical Shock HazardBefore servicing, disconnect all power to the equipment.The internal capacitor remains charged even after the power supply is turned off. The charge indicator LED will extinguishwhen the DC bus voltage is below 50 Vdc. To prevent electric shock, wait for at least the time specified on the warning label,once all indicators are OFF, measure for unsafe voltages to confirm the drive is safe prior to servicing.Failure to comply will result in death or serious injury.WARNINGSudden Movement HazardSystem may start unexpectedly upon application of power, resulting in death or serious injury.Clear all personnel from the drive, motor and machine area before applying power. Secure covers, couplings, shaft keys andmachine loads before applying power to the drive.Electrical Shock HazardDo not attempt to modify or alter the drive in any way not explained in this manual.Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.Yaskawa is not responsible for any modification of the product made by the user. This product must not be modified.Do not allow unqualified personnel to use equipment.Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.Installation, maintenance, inspection, and service must be performed only by authorized personnel familiar with installation,adjustment and maintenance of AC drives.Do not remove covers or touch circuit boards while the power is on.Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury.Make sure the protective earthing conductor complies with technical standards and local safety regulations.Because the leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA in models 4A0414 and larger, IEC/EN 61800-5-1 states that either the powersupply must be automatically disconnected in case of discontinuity of the protective earthing conductor or a protectiveearthing conductor with a cross-section of at least 10 mm2 (Cu) or 16 mm2 (Al) must be used. Failure to comply may resultin death or serious injury.Always use appropriate equipment for Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs).The drive can cause a residual current with a DC component in the protective earthing conductor. Where a residual currentoperated protective or monitoring device is used for protection in case of direct or indirect contact, always use a type B GFCIaccording to IEC/EN 60755.Fire HazardDo not use an improper voltage source.Failure to comply could result in death or serious injury by fire.Verify that the rated voltage of the drive matches the voltage of the incoming power supply before applying power.Install adequate branch circuit protection according to applicable local codes and this Installation Manual. Failureto comply could result in fire and damage to the drive or injury to personnel.i.2 General SafetyYASKAWA SIEP YAIP1U 01C AC Drive - P1000 Technical Manual 19
