• Do not install the drive upside down.
• Make sure that the hot exhaust air from a drive does not flow into the cooling
inlet of other drives or equipment.
Examining the installation site
Examine the installation site. Make sure that:
• The installation site is sufficiently ventilated or cooled to remove heat from
the drive. See the technical data.
• The ambient conditions of the drive meet the specifications. See the technical
data.
• The material behind, above and below the drive is non-flammable.
• The installation surface is as close to vertical as possible and strong enough
to support the drive.
• There is sufficient free space around the drive for cooling, maintenance, and
operation. See the free space specifications for the drive.
• Make sure that there are no sources of strong magnetic fields such as
high-current single-core conductors or contactor coils near the drive. A strong
magnetic field can cause interference or inaccuracy in the operation of the
drive.
Required tools
To install the drive mechanically, you need these tools:
• a drill and suitable drill bits
• a screwdriver or wrench with a set of suitable bits
• a tape measure and spirit level
• personal protective equipment.
