Safety Notes
The following basic safety notes must be read carefully to prevent injury to persons and
damage to property. The operator must make sure that the basic safety notes are read
and observed. Make sure that persons responsible for the plant and its operation, as
well as persons who work independently on the unit, have read through the operating
instructions carefully and understood them. If you are unclear about any of the information in this documentation, or if you require further information, please contact SEW-EURODRIVE.
2.1 General information
Never install damaged products or take them into operation. Submit a complaint to the
shipping company immediately in the event of damage.
During operation, drive inverters can have live, bare and movable or rotating parts as
well as hot surfaces, depending on their enclosure.
Removing covers without authorization, improper use as well as incorrect installation or
operation may result in severe injuries to persons or damage to machinery.
Consult the documentation for additional information.
2.2 Target group
Only qualified electricians are authorized to install, startup, troubleshoot or service the
units (observe IEC 60364 or CENELEC HD 384 or DIN VDE 0100 and IEC 60664 or
DIN VDE 0110 as well as national accident prevention guidelines).
Qualified personnel in the context of these basic safety notes are: All persons familiar
with installation, assembly, startup and operation of the product who possess the necessary qualifications.
All work related to transport, storage, operation and disposal must be carried out only
by personnel who have been trained and instructed accordingly.
2.3 Designated use
Drive inverters are components intended for installation in electrical systems or machines.
In case of installation in machines, startup of the drive inverters (i.e. start of designated
operation) is prohibited until it is determined that the machine meets the requirements
stipulated in the EC Directive 98 37 EC (machine guideline); observe EN 60204.
Startup (i.e. start of designated operation) is only permitted with adherence to EMC
(89/336/EEC) guideline.
The drive inverters meet the requirements stipulated in low voltage guideline
73/23/EEC. The harmonized standards of the EN 61800-5-1/DIN VDE T105 series in
connection with EN 60439-1/VDE 0660 part 500 and EN 60146/VDE 0558 are applied
to these drive inverters.
Technical data and information on the connection requirements are given on the nameplate and in the documentation; they have to be observed under all circumstances.
Safety functions The MOVIDRIVE® MDX60B/61B drive inverters may not perform safety functions without higher-level safety systems. Use higher-level safety systems to ensure protection of
equipment and personnel.
For safety applications, refer to the information in the following publications:
• Safe Disconnection for MOVIDRIVE® MDX60B/61B – Conditions
• Safe Disconnection for MOVIDRIVE® MDX60B/61B – Applications
2.4 Transportation, putting into storage
Observe the notes on transportation, storage and proper handling. Observe the climatic
conditions as stated in the section "General technical data."
2.5 Installation
Installation and cooling of the devices must take place according to the guidelines listed
in the corresponding documentation.
Protect the drive inverters from excessive strain. Especially during transportation and
handling, do not allow the components to be deformed or insulation spaces altered.
Avoid contact with electronic components and contacts.
Drive inverters contain components that can be damaged by electrostatic energy and
improper handling. Prevent mechanical damage or destruction of electric components
(may pose health risk!)
The following applications are prohibited unless measures are expressly taken to make
them possible:
• Use in potentially explosive atmospheres
• Use in areas exposed to harmful oils, acids, gases, vapors, dust, radiation, etc.
• Use in non-stationary applications that are subject to mechanical vibration and shock
loads in excess of the requirements in EN 61800-5-1.
2.6 Electrical connection
Observe the applicable national accident prevention guidelines when working on live
drive inverters (e.g. BGV A3).
Perform electrical installation according to the pertinent regulations (e.g. line cross sections, fusing, protective conductor connection). For any additional information, refer to
the applicable documentation.
You will find notes on EMC-compliant installation, such as shielding, grounding, arrangement of filters and routing of lines, in the documentation of the drive inverters. Always observe these notes even with drive inverters bearing the CE marking. The manufacturer of the system or machine is responsible for maintaining the limits established
by the EMC legislation.
Preventive measures and protection devices must correspond to the regulations in force
(e.g. EN 60204 or EN 61800-5-1).
Required preventive measures: Ground the unit.
2.7 Safe disconnection
The unit meets all requirements for safe disconnection of power and electronic connections in accordance with EN 61800-5-1. All connected circuits must also satisfy the requirements for safe disconnection.
Operation
Systems with integrated drive inverters must be equipped with additional monitoring and
protection devices, if necessary, according to the applicable safety guidelines, such as
the law governing technical equipment, accident prevention regulations, etc. Changes
to the drive inverter using the operating software are permitted.
Do not touch live components or power connections immediately after disconnecting the
drive inverters from the supply voltage because there may still be some charged capacitors. Note the respective reference plates on the drive inverter.
Keep all covers and doors closed during operation.
The fact that the status LED and other display elements are no longer illuminated does
not indicate that the unit has been disconnected from the power supply and no longer
carries any voltage.
Mechanical blocking or internal safety functions of the unit can cause a motor standstill.
Removing the cause of the problem or performing a reset can result in the drive re-starting on its own. If, for safety reasons, this is not permitted for the driven machine, disconnect the unit from the mains before correcting the fault.

Connector adapter
for replacing
MOVIDRIVE® A
with
MOVIDRIVE® B
The following adapters are available for rapid replacement of a MOVIDRIVE® A unit with
a MOVIDRIVE® B unit.
• DAT11B: Terminal adapter, part number 824 671 8
X10 can be rearranged directly when using MOVIDRIVE® MDF, MDV or MDS. Three
plugs have to be rewired. You can avoid such rewiring work by using the DAT11B
terminal adapter. Using this adapter will prevent incorrect connection and save time.
The terminal adapter is required for terminals X11 (analog input), X12 (SBus) and
X13 (binary inputs).

• DAE14B: Encoder adapter X14, part number 817 630 2
If a synchronous encoder is operated at X14 on MOVIDRIVE® MDV, MDS, MCV or
MCS, connection takes place via a 9-pin connector. Since the DEH11B and DER11B
options for MOVIDRIVE® MDX61B come equipped with a 15-pin plug, you will either
have to rework the encoder cable or use the encoder adapter. The encoder adapter
can be plugged directly between the existing encoder cable with 9-pin socket and the
15-pin connector on DEH11B/DER11B. This step makes for fail-safe and fast connection of existing drives

• DWE11B: Interface adapter (adapter cable), part number 188 187 6
The interface adapter DWE11B (HTL→TTL) in the form of an adapter cable is used
to connect single-ended HTL encoders to the HIPERFACE®encoder card
DEH11B. Only the A, B and C tracks are connected. The interface adapter is suitable
for all HTL encoders that were operated on MOVIDRIVE® A, MDV and MCV and can
be connected without any rewiring effort
