Installation
Improper installation of the AC drive will greatly reduce its life. Be sure to observe
the following precautions when selecting a mounting location.
WARNING: Failure to observe these precautions may damage the drive and void the warranty!
• Do not mount the AC drive near heat-radiating elements or in direct sunlight.
• Do not install the AC drive in a place subjected to high temperature, high humidity,
excessive vibration, corrosive gases or liquids, or airborne dust or metallic particles.
• Mount the AC drive vertically and do not restrict the air flow to the heat sink fins.
WARNING: AC drives generate a large amount of heat which may damage the AC drive.
Auxiliary cooling methods are typically required in order not to exceed maximum
ambient temperatures.
