Danfoss VLT Midi Drive FC 280 Operating Instructions

Mounting
To adapt to the mounting holes of FC 280, contact the
local Danfoss supplier to order a separate backplate.

1. Ensure that the strength of the mounting location
supports the unit weight. The frequency
converter allows side-by-side installation.
2. Locate the unit as close to the motor as possible.
Keep the motor cables as short as possible.
3. Mount the unit vertically to a solid at surface or
to the optional backplate to provide cooling
airow.
4. When provided, use the slotted mounting holes
on the unit for wall mounting.
