◆ Mechanical Installation
This section outlines specifications, procedures, and the environment for proper mechanical installation of the drive.
CAUTION! Crush Hazard. Carrying the drive by the front cover may cause the main body of the drive to fall, resulting in minor or
moderate injury. Always hold the case when carrying the drive.
Installation Environment
■
Install the drive in an environment matching the specifications below to help prolong the optimum performance life of the
drive.
Environment
Installation Area
Indoors
IP00 enclosure with top protective cover: -10 to +40°C (14 to 104°F)
IP00 enclosure: -10 to +50°C (14 to 122°F)
Drive reliability improves in environments without wide temperature fluctuations.
Ambient Temperature
When using the drive in 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 to 60°C (-4 to 140°F)
Install the drive in an area free from:
• oil mist and dust
• metal shavings, oil, water or other foreign materials
• radioactive materials
Surrounding Area
• combustible materials (e.g., wood)
• harmful gases and liquids
• excessive vibration
• chlorides
• direct sunlight
1000 m or lower, up to 3000 m with derating 1000 m (3280 ft.) or lower, up to 3000 m (9842 ft.) with derating
Altitude
(Refer to
10 to 20 Hz at 9.8 m/s
20 to 55 Hz at 5.9 m/s
Vibration
2.0 m/s
Orientation
Install the drive vertically to maintain maximum cooling effects.
NOTICE: Avoid placing drive peripheral devices, transformers, or other electronics near the drive as the noise created can lead to
erroneous operation. If such devices must be used in close proximity to the drive, take proper steps to shield the drive from noise.
NOTICE: Prevent foreign matter such as metal shavings and wire clippings from falling into the drive during installation. 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.
