3.2.1 Mechanical Mounting
All Frame Sizes allow side-by-side installation except when a
IP21/IP4X/ TYPE 1 Enclosure Kit
is used (see the
Options and Accessories
section of the
Design Guide).
If the IP 21 Enclosure kit is used on frame size A1, A2 or A3, there must be a clearance between the drives of min. 50 mm.
For optimal cooling conditions allow a free air passage above and below the frequency converter. See table below.
