YASKAWA V1000 Installation Manual page 13

NOTICE: Do not install V1000 Finless drives using the Side-by-Side method available in standard V1000
drive models. Improper drive cooling may result in damage to the drive. Install V1000 Finless drives with a
minimum side-by-side clearance of 30 mm (1.18 in).
Ambient Temperature Derating
■
Parameters L8-12 (Ambient Temperature Setting) and L8-35 (Installation Method Selection)
must be set according to the installation conditions if the ambient temperature is higher than
35°C. Refer to Figure 4
Parameter L8-12 = 40°C (default). The setting range is -10 to 50°C.
Operating the V1000 Finless drive between -10 and 35°C allows 100% continuous current
without derating. Drive operation between 35 and 50°C requires drive derating according to
Figure 4.
The drive can be used with 100% rating between -10 and 50°C ambient temperature if the
airflow around the unit is 0.5 m/s or more. In this case set L8-35 = 0 (Installation method =
IP20 standard drive).
