Safety Precaution

Read and understand the following precautions before performing any procedures in this document.

DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
  • Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E, NOM-029-STPS-2011, or CSA Z462 or local equivalent.
  • Only qualified personnel familiar with power switch equipment are to perform work described in this set of instructions. Workers must understand the hazards involved in working with or near power switch circuits.
  • Perform such work only after reading and understanding all of the instructions contained in this bulletin.
  • Turn off all power supplying this equipment before working on or inside the equipment.
  • Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.
  • Before performing visual inspections, tests, or maintenance on the equipment, disconnect all sources of electric power. Assume that all circuits are live until they have been completely de-energized, tested, grounded, and tagged. Pay particular attention to the design of the power system. Consider all sources of power, including the possibility of backfeeding. More than one disconnector switch may be required to de-energize the equipment before servicing.
  • Do not remove covers, open doors, or work on the equipment unless the power is off and all circuits are de-energized and disconnected.
  • Handle this equipment carefully and install, operate, and maintain it correctly in order for it to function properly.
  • Do not make any modifications to the equipment or operate the system with the interlocks removed. Contact your local field sales representative for additional instruction if the equipment does not function as described in this manual or if parts are missing or damaged.
  • Comply with all codes, standards, and regulations to promote safe electrical installations. A permit may be needed to do electrical work, and some codes may require an inspection of the electrical work.
  • Carefully inspect your work area and remove any tools and objects left inside the equipment.
  • Replace all devices, doors, and covers before turning on power to this equipment.
  • All instructions in this manual are written with the assumption that the customer has taken these measures before performing maintenance 
or testing.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Qualified Personnel

Only appropriately trained persons who are familiar with and understand the content of this instruction bulletin and all other related product documentation are authorized to work on and with this product.

Electrical equipment must be installed, operated, serviced, and maintained only by qualified personnel. No responsibility is assumed by Schneider Electric for any consequences arising out of the use of this material.

A qualified person is one who has skills and knowledge related to the construction, installation, and operation of electrical equipment and has received safety training to recognize and avoid the hazards involved.

Pay particular attention to adhere to any safety information, electrical requirements, and normative standards that apply to your machine or process in the use of this equipment.

Refer to NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, or NOM-029-STPS for more information on safe electrical work practices and qualified personnel.

Intended Use

The product described in this instruction bulletin is intended for use according to the instructions, directions, examples, and safety information contained in this document and other supporting documentation.

The product may only be used in compliance with all applicable safety regulations and directives, the specified requirements, and the technical data.

Before using the product, perform a risk assessment of the planned application. Based on the results, appropriate safety related measures must be implemented.

Since the product is used as a component of a machine or process, the safety of persons must be ensured by means of the overall system design.

Whenever specific manufacturer components and accessories are specified as mandatory within the instruction manual or in equipment job drawings, those components must be used.

Any use other than the use explicitly permitted is prohibited and can result in unanticipated hazards.

Cybersecurity

NOTE: Schneider Electric adheres to industry best practices in the development and implementation of control systems. This includes a “Defense-in-Depth” approach to secure an industrial control system. This approach places the controllers behind one or more firewalls to restrict access to authorized personnel and protocols only.
WARNING
UnAUTHENTICATED aCCESS AND SUBSEQUENT UNAUTHORIZED MACHINE OPERATION
  • Evaluate whether the environment or machines are connected to critical infrastructure and, if so, take appropriate steps in terms of prevention, based on Defense-in-Depth, before connecting the automation system to any network.
  • Limit the number of devices connected to a network.
  • Isolate the industrial network from other networks.
  • Protect any network against unintended access by using firewalls, VPN, or other, proven security measures.
  • Monitor activities within the systems.
  • Prevent subject devices from direct access or direct link by unauthorized parties or unauthenticated actions.
  • Prepare a recovery plan, including backup of the system and process information.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
