➢ Cold plate
➢ Wall mounting with heat sink
➢ Push-through heat sink

Subject Project planning notes
Side clearance
• Inverter modules 0.37 to 15 kW can be mounted next to each 
other with no gap.
• Above 22 kW a side clearance of 50 mm must additionally be 
maintained.
Clearance above 
and below
• There must be a clearance of 100 mm above and below.
• Polluted cooling air (dust, fluff, oil, aggressive gases) may impair 
the functioning of the inverter modules.
- Take adequate precautions; cold plate; separate
  ventilation; installation of filters; regular cleaning etc.
• Do not exceed the permissible range of the operational cooling 
temperature (see sections 3.1.2 and 3.2.14).
• Observe other ambient conditions (see section 3.1.2).
• Mounting orientation: Vertical on the rear of the switch cabinet or 
other mounting surface.
• With “cold plate and push-through heat sink” cooling, comply 
with the special conditions for discharge of power loss.
