2.1 Environmental
requirements
Warning
Installation in an enclosure
The Drive must be protected
against water, condensation and
electrically conductive
contamination. When the gland
plate and appropriate glands are
fitted, the Drive can attain
ingress protection to NEMA 1 and
IP40 (in accordance with
IEC529). UL listing is valid when
the Drive is installed in a type 1
enclosure as defined in UL 50.
Warning
Authorized access
The enclosure should prevent
access by anyone except for
authorized, trained service
personnel.
Warning
Fire enclosure
The Drive case is not classified
as a fire enclosure. When this
protection is required, the
Drive should be installed in a
fire enclosure.
Warning
Hazardous areas
The Drive must not be located
in a classified hazardous area
unless the Drive is installed in
an approved enclosure and the
installation is certified.
Warning
Before a Drive is used in the
fully sinusoidal Regeneration
mode, the Drive and the
accompanying motoring
Drive(s) must be modified.
Contact the supplier of the
Drive for details.
1. Refer to Appendix C Data for details of the
environmental requirements.
2. If condensation is likely to occur when the Drive
is not in use, an anti-condensation heater must
be installed. This heater must be switched off
when the Drive is in use; automatic switching is
recommended.
3. If the Drive is to be mounted directly above any
heat-generating equipment (such as another
Drive), the maximum temperature of the air
immediately below the Drive should be taken as
the ambient temperature for the Drive.
4. If the Drive is to be mounted beneath other
equipment, such as another Drive, the Drive
should not cause the ambient temperature
requirements of the equipment to be exceeded.
5. When compliance with EMC emission standards
is required, the enclosure must be made of
metal but does not require special EMC
features.
UL-listing requirements are given in Appendix B.
