3.2 Installation Clearance
Servo drives in different power ratings require different installation clearances. When
installing multiple servo drives side by side, it is recommended to reserve a clearance
of at least 10 mm (0.39 in.) between every two servo drives and a clearance of at least
50 mm (1.97 in.) above and below each servo drive for heat dissipation.
