Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications described in the catalog and in the relevant technical documentation. If products and components from other manufacturers are used, these must be recommended or approved by Siemens. Proper transport, storage, installation, assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance are required to ensure that the products operate safely and without any problems.
Table of contents This Getting Started Guide describes how you install and commission the SINAMICS G120C converter. What is the meaning of the symbols in the manual? An operating instruction starts here. This concludes the operating instruction. Firmware upgrade and downgrade Options for upgrading and downgrading the firmware can be found on the Internet at http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/de/67364620...
Touching live components can result in death or severe injury. • Only use power supplies that provide SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV- (Protective Extra Low Voltage) output voltages for all connections and terminals of the electronics modules.

Siemens recommends strongly that you regularly check for product updates. For the secure operation of Siemens products and solutions, it is necessary to take suitable preventive action (e.g. cell protection concept) and integrate each component into a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept.
Inverters of the Open Type/IP20 degree of protection must be installed in a metal control cabinet (or protected by another equivalent measure) such that contact with fire inside and outside the inverter is not possible. SINAMICS G120C converter Getting Started, 04/2014, FW V4.7, A5E34264105B AA...
