Temperature Derating
To ensure the maximum performance life, the drives output current must be derated like shown in Figure A.7 when the
drive is installed in areas with high ambie
nt temperature or if drives are Side-by-Side mounted in a cabinet. In order to
ensure reliable drive overload protection, the parameters L8-12 and L8-35 must also be set according to the installation
conditions.
Parameter Settings
0: IP00 Enclosure
Drive operation between -10C and 50C allows 100% continuous current without derating.
1: Side-by-Side Mounting
Drive operation between -10C and 30C allows 100% continuous current without derating. Operation between 30C
and 50C
requires output current derating.
2: IP20/NEMA 1, UL Type 1 Enclosure
Drive operation between -10C and 40C allows 100% continuous current without derating. Operation between 40C
and 50C
requires output current derating.
