Planning the Kinetix 6000 Drive System Installation 25
The maximum ambient rating of the Kinetix 6000 system is 50 °C
(122 °F) and if the maximum environmental temperature is 30 °C
(86 °F) then Q=606 and T=20 in the equation below.
In this example, the enclosure must have an exterior surface of 6.59
meters

. If any portion of the enclosure is not able to transfer heat, it
should not be included in the calculation.
Since the minimum cabinet depth to house the 230V drive (selected
for this example) is 200 mm (7.9 in.), then the cabinet needs to be
approximately 2100 mm (high) x 1250 mm (wide) x 200 mm (deep).
2 x (0.2 x 1.25) + 2 x (0.2 x 2.1) + 2 x (1.25 x 2.1) = 6.59m

Because this cabinet size is considerably larger than what is necessary
to house the system components, it may be more efficient to provide
a means of cooling in a smaller cabinet. Contact your cabinet
manufacturer for options available to cool your cabinet.
