To allow free air circulation, the touch cover at the bottom of the cabinet must be of type meshed sheet metal screen. Also, the
busbar touch protection cover and the upper support for the AC choke must be equipped with holes. See Illustration 9.
If a flat roof is used, mount a V-shaped air guide on the underside of the roof to direct the airflow horizontally. See Illustration 10.

5.2.3 Heat Dissipation
The efficiency of the AC drive is a function of switching frequency, operating frequency, and load (see VACON NXC Enclosed Drive
Operating Guide). Based on this information, heat dissipation can be calculated at a certain operating point. For most cases the
following general formula based on AC drive load can be used to estimate the heat dissipation of the power unit:
P
loss
kW = kW ∗ 0 . 025
The following table shows the heat dissipation from the AC choke.
