AKD2G-S Installation Manual, Safety 1 | 7 Mechanical Installation
7.1 Important Notes
High EMC Voltage Level!
Risk of electrical shock, if the servo amplifier (or the motor) is not properly EMC-grounded.
l
Use electrically conductive mounting plates, e. g. made of aluminum or galvanized steel.
l
In unfavourable circumstances, use copper mesh tape between the earthing bolts and
earth potential to deflect currents.
Protect the drive from impermissible stresses. In particular, do not let any components become bent or any
insulation distances altered during transport and handling. Avoid contact with electronic components and
contacts.
7.2 Guide to Mechanical Installation
You need at least the following tools to install the AKD2G:
l
M5 hexagon socket-cap screws (ISO 4762)
l
4 mm hexagon ball head screwdriver
l
No. 2 Phillips head screwdriver
l
Small slotted screwdriver
Your specific installation may require additional tools.
Do not mount the drive right next to devices that produce magnetic fields. Strong magnetic fields can
directly affect internal components. Install the drive with distance to such devices and/or shield the
magnetic fields.
Install the drive unit as follows:
1. Mount the drive in a closed control cabinet (ambient conditions (➜ # 33). The site must be free from conductive
or corrosive materials. For the mounting position in the cabinet see (➜ # 49).
2. Check that the ventilation of the drive is unimpeded and keep within the permitted ambient temperature (➜ # 33).
Keep the required space clearance above and below the drive (➜ # 49).
3. Ensure that there is an adequate flow of cool, filtered air into the bottom of the control cabinet, or use a heat
exchanger (➜ # 33).
Notice: The drive will switch itself off in case of overheating.
4. If you are using a cooling system for the control cabinet, position the cooling system in a way that condensation
water cannot drip onto the drive or peripheral devices.
5. Assemble the drive and power supply next to each other on the conductive, grounded mounting plate in the
cabinet.
6. Ground the mounting plate, motor housing and CNC-GND of the control system. For EMC-compliant shielding
and grounding see (➜ # 58).
