Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by
personnel qualified
for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions.
Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and
avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

1.4
Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement and continuously maintain a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept.
Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines
and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the
enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security
measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For more information about industrial security, please visit:
http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to
always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,
and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS
Feed under:

Recycling and disposal
These devices can be recycled thanks to their low pollutant content. For environmentally-
friendly recycling and disposal of your electronic waste, please contact a company certified
for the disposal of electronic waste.

Safety instructions
2
Five safety rules for work in or on electrical installations
A set of rules, which are summarized in DIN VDE 0105 as the "five safety rules", are defined
for work in or on electrical installations as a preventative measure against electrical
accidents:
1. Isolate
2. Secure against switching on again
3. Verify that the equipment is not live
4. Ground and short-circuit
5. Erect barriers around or cover adjacent live parts
These five safety rules must be applied in the above order prior to starting work on an
electrical system. After completing the work, proceed in the reverse order.
It is assumed that every electrician is familiar with these rules.
Explanations
1. The isolating distances between live and de-energized parts of the system must vary
according to the operating voltage that is applied.
In electrical installations, "isolate" refers to the disconnection of all poles of live parts.
Disconnection of all poles can be achieved by, for example:
Switching off the miniature circuit breaker
Switching off the motor starter protector
Unscrewing fuses
Removing LV HRC fuses
2. The feeder must be secured against inadvertent restarting to ensure that it remains
isolated for the duration of the work. This can be achieved, for instance, by securing the
motor starter protector and miniature circuit breaker with lockable blocking elements in
the disconnected state, either using a lock or by unscrewing the fuses.
3. The deenergized state of the equipment should be verified using suitable test equipment,
e.g. a two-pole voltmeter. Single-pole test pins are not suitable for this purpose. The
absence of power must be established for all poles, phase to phase, and phase to N/PE.
4. Grounding and short-circuiting are only mandatory if the system has a nominal voltage
greater than 1 kV. In this case, the system should always be grounded first and then
connected to the live parts to be short-circuited.
5. These parts should be covered, or barriers erected around them, to avoid accidental
contact during the work with adjacent parts that are still live.

IE3 / IE4 ready
Ambitious climate protection goals in Europe call for increasingly energy-efficient
components.
With this in mind, the energy efficiency class IE3 / IE4 has been mandatory since January
2015 (with exceptions) for three-phase asynchronous motors, and this will have an effect on
motors, low-voltage power distribution systems, and industrial controls.
This applies:
Since January 1, 2015 for motors from 7.5 kW to 375 kW
From January 1, 2017 for motors from 0.75 kW to 375 kW
You will be optimally equipped for the current motor generation with the SIRIUS modular
system components and 3VA molded case circuit breakers.
You will find information on IE3 / IE4 at:

Using SIRIUS controls with IE3 / IE4 motors
For the use of SIRIUS
controls in conjunction with highly energy-efficient IE3 / IE4 motors,
please observe the information on dimensioning and configuring
