If there is dust in the air the converter should be well protected to make sure dust does not get into the converter.
RECEIPT OF DELIVERY vacon • 13 Maintenance In normal conditions, Vacon NX frequency converters are maintenance-free. However, we recommend to keep the converter clean, e.g. by cleaning the heatsink with compressed air whenever necessary. In IP54 units, the air filters in the door and in the roof should be cleaned or replaced regularly.

NOTE! The NXC low-harmonic drive incorporates an LCL filter instead of AC chokes and this instruction can be ignored. The AC input choke carries out several functions in the Vacon NX 6- and 12-pulse frequency converter. The input choke is needed as an essential component for motor control, to protect the input and DC-link components against abrupt changes of current and voltage as well as to function as a protection against harmonics.
• 28 MOUNTING Auxiliary voltage transformer tappings NOTE! An auxiliary voltage transformer is always included as standard in NXC low-harmonic drives. If the drive is ordered with an auxiliary voltage transformer for 230V auxiliary voltage supply (+ATx option) the tappings of the transformer have to be set according to the mains voltage.
