Minimum air clearances

After proper installation, verify that the minimum air clearances between non-insulated parts
are maintained. Be aware of any protruding wire ends.
Table 6-6
Values apply at an installation altitude of up to 2000 m.
When determining the required minimum air clearance, the voltage value in the table may be increased
by a factor of 1.1, so that the rated input voltage range is taken into account during general use.

– The electrical connections in the terminal box have been made in accordance with the
specifications above and tightened with the correct tightening torque.
– The machine is connected in such a way that it rotates in the direction specified.
– The inside of the terminal box is clean and free of any cable debris, dirt and foreign
bodies.
– All of the seals and sealing surfaces of the terminal box are intact and in a good condition.
– Any unused cable entries are sealed with glued-in ferrous or certified sealing elements.
The sealing elements can only be removed with a tool.
– The connecting cables are laid in an open arrangement, so that the cable insulation
cannot be damaged during operation.
