The IS580 series servo drive dissipates heat from the bottom to the top. The drive of IS580T080-R1-H-1 to 
IS580T210-R1-H-1dissipates heat from the left to the right. When multiple servo drives are required to work 
together, install them side by side. 
For the application of installing multiple servo drives, if one row of Servo drives need to be installed above another 
row, install an insulation guide plate to prevent servo drives in the lower row from heating those in the upper row 
and causing faults.
