Lifting applications

Perform the following additional steps before starting up the lifting applications:

  1. WARNING! Danger due to falling vertical drive. Severe or fatal injuries. Use additional monitoring systems or mechanical guards as a protective device.
  2. WARNING! Danger due to falling vertical drive. Severe or fatal injuries. Do not use the "Release brake/deactivateDynaStop® for FCB01" function in lifting devices or applications with loads that may potentially fall down. Lock the function as follows.
    • Deactivate the function of DIP switch S1/2 using parameter Deactivation = "1" (Path: Funktionen > Ein-/Ausgänge > Grundgerät > DIP-Schalter Funktionen > Bremse öffnen/DynaStop® deaktivieren bei FCB01 – Freischalten). [Functions > Inputs/outputs > Base device > DIP switch functions > Release brake/Deactivate DynaStop® with FCB01 – enable)]
    • Lock the function using the parameter Release brake/deactivate DynaStop® with FCB01 – Enable = "0" (Path: Funktionen > Antriebsfunktionen > FCB01 Endstufensperre). [Functions > Drive functions > FCB01 Output stage inhibit]
  3. WARNING! The DynaStop® electrodynamic retarding function does not allow for a definite stop at a position. Severe or fatal injuries. Observe the following information.
    • Do not use drive units with DynaStop® in lifting applications.
    • When using DynaStop® on ascending/descending sections or vertical conveyors without freely suspended loads, comply with the basic safety and health requirements (e.g. EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC).
    • The behavior of the DynaStop® function must be taken into account for the risk assessment of the application that determines the required safety measures.
  4. NOTICE! When operating the inverter in the ELSM® control mode, its use in lifting applications is not permitted. Operate the inverter in the ELSM® control mode only in applications with horizontal materials handling technology.
  5. In the MOVISUITE® engineering software, configure the parameters according to the lifting application requirements and its safety assessment.
    • Set parameter Apply brake/activate DynaStop® in STO state (8501.3) = "1" (Yes), see chapter "Mechanical brake in conjunction with STO".
    • Set parameter Integrate mode (8404.9) = "0" (Stop). Path: Optimierung AS1 > Reglerdynamik einstellen > Erweiterte Einstellungen. [AS1 Optimization > Configure controller dynamics > Advanced settings]
