Mounting the converter module D7 inside an enclosure
Cooling air entry
The cooling fan takes the air from the backside, both 
sides and from the area underneath the converter 
module.
Free space around the converter module
Do not place the converter module in a corner. In case 
the fan cannot take the air through the bottom plate of 
the enclosure none of the remaining entries can be 
blocked. 
Cable entries 
The cable entries are existing symmetrically on both 
sides. Nevertheless only the entries on the left side 
should be used for cables going to the electronics 
power supply (SDCS-POW-1) or the controller board 
(SDCS-CON-4).
Screened cable for 
hardware interface 
connection IOB2/IOB3 
board is strongly rec-
ommended
Provide sufficient 
grounding of card 
holder
Air entry through bottom plate
Make sure the converter module gets clean air, 
because there is no air filter in front of the fan at the 
converter.
Use cable straps for 
fan cable
Cooling air outlet
To avoid circulating air inside the enclosure it is rec-
ommended to make sure the exhaust air leaves the 
enclosure.

Do not have loose cables. The air flow from 
fan will destroy the cables!
Internal cable ducts 
are used for snubber 
circuit wiring. Don’t 
use these cable 
ducts for other 
cables or process 
signals.
