◆ Installation Orientation (Heatsink-Cooled Drive, Finless Drive)
Install the drive upright as illustrated in Figure 2.1 to maintain proper cooling.

■ Space Requirements for Single Drive Installation (Heatsink-Cooled Drive, Finless Drive)
Figure 2.2 explains the required installation spacing to maintain sufficient space for airflow and wiring. Install the
heatsink against a closed surface to avoid diverting cooling air around the heatsink.

Figure 2.2 Correct Installation Spacing
Note: Space requirements are the same for the heatsink-cooled drive and finless drive.
■ Space Requirements for Multiple Drives in an Enclosure Panel:
Side-by-Side Mounting with Heatsink (Heatsink-Cooled Drive)
When installing multiple drives into the same enclosure panel, mount the drives according to Figure 2.2. When
mounting drives with a minimum side-by-side clearance of 2 mm according to Figure 2.3, derating must be considered
and parameter L8-35 must be set. Refer to Parameter List on page 317.
