5 Installation
High Temperatures
Use the following cooling methods as required, taking into account the ambient temperature and the
amount of heating inside the panel.
Natural Cooling
Natural cooling relies on natural ventilation through slits in the panel, rather than using cooling devi-
ces such as fans or coolers. When using this method, observe the following points.
• Do not install the IPC at the top of the panel, where hot air tends to stagnate.
• To provide ventilation space above and below the IPC, leave sufficient distance from other devi-
ces, wiring ducts, etc.
• Do not mount the IPC in the wrong direction (e.g., vertically or upside down). Doing so may
cause abnormal heating in the IPC.
• Do not install the IPC directly above any heat-generating equipment, such as heaters or trans-
formers.
• Do not install the IPC in a location exposed to direct sunlight.
