Plan the Kinetix 5300 Drive System Installation
This chapter describes system installation guidelines used in preparation for
mounting your Kinetix® 5300 drive components.
System Design Guidelines Use the information in this section when designing your enclosure and
planning to mount your system components on the panel.

System Mounting Requirements
• To comply with UL and CE requirements, the Kinetix 5300 drive systems
must be enclosed in a grounded conductive enclosure offering protection
as defined in standard IEC 60529 to IP20 such that they are not accessible
to an operator or unskilled person. A NEMA 4X enclosure exceeds these
requirements providing protection to IP66.
• To maintain the functional safety rating of the Kinetix 5300 drive system,
this enclosure must be appropriate for the environmental conditions of
the industrial location and provide a protection class of IP54 or higher.
• The panel that you install inside the enclosure for mounting your system
components must be on a flat, rigid, vertical surface that won’t be
subjected to shock, vibration, moisture, oil mist, dust, or corrosive vapors
in accordance with pollution degree 2 (IEC 61800-5-1) because the
product is rated to protection class IP20 (IEC 60529). To comply with UL
applications, cabinet ventilation is allowed on the left side and right side
of the panel.
• Size the drive enclosure so as not to exceed the maximum ambient
temperature rating. Consider heat dissipation specifications for all drive
components.

ATTENTION: Plan the installation of your system so that you can perform all
cutting, drilling, tapping, and welding with the system removed from the
enclosure. Because the system is of the open type construction, be careful to
keep metal debris from falling into it. Metal debris or other foreign matter can
become lodged in the circuitry and result in damage to the components.
