Control Module removal.
1. Fully unscrew the cross head screw.
2. Press finger grips and Lift the Control module from the screw side.
3. Rotate towards the control terminal side as shown.
4.4. Heatsink Capacity Calculation
Optidrive Compact 2 Units are designed to be mounted to a metallic, heat conducting surface in order to maintain the unit operating
temperature. Thermostrate or heatsink compound must be added to ensure optimal heat transfer and minimum thermal resistance.
In order to calculate the necessary heatsink requirement, the following formula can be used. Example values based on typical conditions are
given in the table below.
Determine the maximum ambient air temperature around the heatsink, T

4.5. Maximum Permissible Heatsink Temperature
The maximum permissible heatsink temperature allowed for the Compact 2 drive is linked to the desired effective switching frequency selected
by parameter P-17. In order to maintain operation at a certain switching frequency, the heatsink temperature must be maintained below the
threshold level shown in the table below. If the temperature exceeds the threshold, the switching frequency will automatically reduce.
