3.1 Introduction
This chapter provides a description of the installation and the electrical
connections for the variable frequency drive DC 1 series.
3.2 Mounting
The instructional leaflets in this section are meant to show how to install the
device in a suitable enclosure for devices with degree of protection IP20 in
compliance
with
standard EN 60529 and/or
any other
applicable
local
regula-
tions.
• The enclosures must be made of a material with high thermal conduc-
tivity.
• If a control panel with ventilation openings is used, the openings must
be located above and below the variable frequency drive in order to allow
for proper air circulation. The air should come in from below the variable
frequency drive and leave above it.
• If the environment outside the control panel contains dirt particles
(e.g., dust), a suitable particulate filter must be placed on the ventilation
openings and forced ventilation must be used. The filters must be main-
tained and cleaned if necessary.
• An appropriate enclosed control panel (without ventilation openings)
must be used in environments containing large percentages or amounts
of humidity, salt, or chemicals.
￫
While mounting and/or assembling the variable frequency drive,
cover all ventilation slots in order to ensure that no foreign
bodies can enter the device.
￫
Perform all installation work with
the specified
tools
and without
the use of
excessive
force.
