50 Guidelines for planning the cabinet installation

Planning the placement of the control panel

Note the following alternatives when you plan the placement of the control panel:
•
As standard, the control panel is integrated on the control unit inside the drive module.
•
The control panel can be mounted onto the cabinet door using a control panel
mounting platform (option +J410). For instructions, see DPMP-02/03 control panel
mounting platform kit installation guide (3AUA0000136205 [English]).

Planning the use of cubicle heaters

Use a cubicle heater if there is a risk of condensation in the cabinet. Although the primary
function of the heater is to keep the air dry, it may also be required for heating at low
temperatures.

Arc welding

Fastening the cabinet by arc welding is not recommended. However, if the arc welding is
the only mounting option, proceed as follows: Connect the return conductor of the welding
equipment to the cabinet frame at the bottom within 0.5 meters (1.5 ft) of the welding point.
Note: The thickness of the zinc coating of the cabinet frame is 100 to 200 micrometers.
WARNING! Make sure that the return wire is connected correctly. Welding current
must not return via any component or cabling of the drive. If the welding return
wire is connected improperly, the welding circuit can damage electronic circuits in
the cabinet.
WARNING! Do not inhale the welding fumes.
