2.2 Mechanical Installation
This section outlines specifications, procedures, and environment for proper mechanical installation of the drive.
u
Installation Environment
To help prolong the optimum performance life of the drive, install the drive in the proper environment.
Table 2.1 describes
the appropriate environment for the drive.
Table 2.1 Installation Environment
Environment Conditions
Installation Area Indoors
Ambient Temperature
IP20/NEMA 1, UL Type 1 enclosure: -10 °C to +40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F)
IP66/NEMA 4X, UL Type 4X enclosure: -10 °C to +40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F)
Drive reliability improves in environments without wide temperature fluctuations.
When using an enclosure panel, install a cooling fan or air conditioner in the area to ensure that the air temperature inside
the enclosure does not exceed the specified levels.
Do not allow ice to develop on the drive.
Humidity 95% RH or less and free of condensation
Storage Temperature -20 °C to +60 °C (-4 °F to +104 °F)
Surrounding Area
Install the drive in an area free from:
• oil mist and dust
• metal shavings, oil, water or other foreign materials
• radioactive materials
• combustible materials (e.g., wood)
• harmful gases and liquids
• excessive vibration
• chlorides
• direct sunlight
For IP66/NEMA 4X, UL Type 4X enclosure drives, install the drive in an environment suitable for IP66/NEMA 4X, UL
Type 4X enclosures:
• NEMA 4X, UL Type 4X – Enclosures constructed for either indoor or outdoor use to provide a degree of protection
to personnel against incidental contact with the enclosed equipment; to provide a degree of protection against falling
dirt, rain, sleet, snow, windblown dust, splashing water, hose-directed water, and corrosion; and that will be undamaged
by the external formation of ice on the enclosure.
• IP66 – Dust-tight enclosures to not allow any dust to penetrate. The enclosure guards the drive against powerful jetting
water sprayed from any direction and is protected against access to hazardous parts with a wire.
Altitude Up to 1000 meters without derating; up to 3000 meters with output current, ambient temperature, and voltage derating.
Vibration
10 to 20 Hz at 9.8 m/s
2
20 to 55 Hz at 5.9 m/s
2
Orientation Install the drive vertically to maintain maximum cooling effects.
NOTICE: Prevent foreign matter such as metal shavings or wire clippings from falling into the drive during installation and project
construction. Failure to comply could result in damage to the drive. Place a temporary cover over the top of the drive during installation.
Remove the temporary cover before startup, as the cover will reduce ventilation and cause the drive to overheat.
NOTICE: Avoid placing drive peripheral devices, transformers, or other electronics near the drive. Failure to comply could result in erroneous
operation. If such devices must be used in close proximity to the drive, take proper steps to shield the drive from noise.
u
Installation Orientation and Spacing
NOTICE: Install the drive upright as illustrated in
Figure 2.1. Failure to comply may damage the drive due to improper cooling.
