Safety and operating instructions

1.1

General

During assembly and operation, the PFC power board poses several inherent hazards,

including bare wires, moving or rotating parts and hot surfaces. Serious personal injury and

damage to property may occur if the kit or its components are used or installed incorrectly.

All operations involving transportation, installation, use and maintenance should be carried

out by skilled technical personnel (national accident prevention rules must be observed).

"Skilled technical personnel" refers to suitably qualified persons who are familiar with the

installation, use and maintenance of power electronic systems.

Warning:

The board operates directly from the mains, is not galvanic

insulated, and provides high voltage DC levels at the output

that can cause serious electric shock, burns or death. Hot

surfaces on the board can also cause burns.

This board must only be used in a power laboratory by engineers and technicians who are

experienced in power electronics’ technology and with adequate protection.

STMicroelectronics shall not be considered responsible for damages to equipment or

persons.

1.2

Intended use of the demonstration board

The system is designed for demonstration purposes only, and must not be used for electrical

installations or machinery. Technical data and information concerning the supply conditions

must be taken from the documentation provided and strictly observed.

1.3

Installation of the demonstration board

The system’s installation and cooling must be in accordance with the specifications and

targeted application.

●

Excessive strain on the board must be avoided. In particular, no components are to be

bent, or isolating distances altered, during the course of transportation or handling.

●

No contact must be made with other electronic components and contacts.

●

The board contains electro-statically sensitive components that are prone to damage

through improper use. To avoid potential health risks, ensure that the electrical

components are not damaged in any way.

1.4

Electronic connection

National accident prevention rules must be followed when working on the main power

supply with another power supply or power board in general.

The electrical installation must be carried out in accordance with the appropriate

requirements (cross-sectional areas of conductors, fusing, PE connections, etc).
