9 Mechanical Installation Considerations
9.1 Storage
Store the drive in a dry location. Keep the equipment
sealed in its packaging until installation. Refer to
chapter 7.5 Ambient Conditions for recommended ambient
temperature.
Periodic forming (capacitor charging) is not necessary
during storage unless storage exceeds 12 months.
9.2 Lifting the Unit
Always lift the drive using the dedicated lifting eyes. To
avoid bending the lifting holes, use a bar.
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH
Follow local safety regulations for lifting heavy weights.
Failure to follow recommendations and local safety
regulations can result in death or serious injury.
•
Ensure that the lifting equipment is in proper
working condition.
•
See chapter 4 Product Overview for the weight
of the dierent enclosure sizes.
•
Maximum diameter for bar: 20 mm (0.8 in).
•
The angle from the top of the drive to the
lifting cable: 60° or greater.

9.3 Operating Environment
In environments with airborne liquids, particles, or
corrosive gases, ensure that the IP/Type rating of the
equipment matches the installation environment. For
specications regarding ambient conditions, see
chapter 7.5 Ambient Conditions.
NOTICE!
CONDENSATION
Moisture can condense on the electronic components
and cause short circuits. Avoid installation in areas
subject to frost. Install an optional space heater when
the drive is colder than the ambient air. Operating in
standby mode reduces the risk of condensation as long
as the power dissipation keeps the circuitry free of
moisture.
