as specified in the relevant function descriptions.
Every drive controller has to be programmed before starting it up, making
it possible for the motor to execute the specific functions of an application.
The drive controllers of the ECODRIVE03 family are designed for use in
single or multiple-axis drive and control applications.
To ensure an application-specific use, the drive controllers are available
with differing drive power and different interfaces.
Typical applications of drive controllers belonging to the ECODRIVE03
family are:
• handling and mounting systems,
• packaging and foodstuff machines,
• printing and paper processing machines and
• machine tools.
The drive controllers may only be operated under the assembly,
installation and ambient conditions as described here (temperature,
system of protection, humidity, EMC requirements, etc.) and in the
position specified.
2.2 Inappropriate use
Using the drive controllers outside of the above-referenced areas of
application or under operating conditions other than described in the
document and the technical data specified is defined as “inappropriate
use".
Drive controllers may not be used if
• they are subject to operating conditions that do not meet the above
specified ambient conditions. This includes, for example, operation
under water, in the case of extreme temperature fluctuations or
extremely high maximum temperatures or if
• Rexroth Indramat has not specifically released them for that intended
purpose. Please note the specifications outlined in the general safety
instructions!
