WARNING: Heat and Noise
Do not install the control panel in an area that does not comply with the listed temperatures below. Doing so can
cause damage to components within the control panel.
The ACS-SDC-E control panel is UL tested to between -35°C (-31°F) and 66°C (150°F) and EN -40°C (-40°F) to 70°C

Do not install the control panel near or on the same circuit with devices that produce large amounts of electrical
noise. This includes grinders, electric motors and blowers, electrical switch-gear and other electrically noisy equip-
ment. Electrical noise can interfere with panel operation. If it is not possible to install the panel away from such
sources of noise, it is advisable to isolate it by using a high-quality UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) between the
AC Mains and the transformer.
