Mechanical Installation
3.2 Mechanical Installation
3.2.1 Preparation for Installation
Make the following preparations to ensure reliable and
effective installation of the frequency converter:
•
Provide a suitable mounting arrangement. The
mounting arrangement depends on the design,
weight, and torque of the frequency converter.
•
Examine the mechanical drawings to ensure that
the space requirements are met.
•
Ensure that all wiring is done in accordance with
national regulations.
3.2.2 Tools Required
•
Drill with 10 or 12 mm bit.
•
Tape measure.
•
Wrench with relevant metric sockets (7-17 mm).
•
Extensions to wrench.
•
Sheet metal punch for conduits or cable glands
in IP21/Nema 1 and IP54 units
•
Lifting bar to lift the unit (rod or tube max. Ø 25
mm (1 inch), able to lift minimum 400 kg (880
lbs)).
•
Crane or other lifting aid to place the frequency
converter in position.
3.2.3 General Considerations
Space
Ensure sufficient space above and below the frequency
converter to allow airflow and cable access. In addition,
allow for enough space in front of the unit to open the
panel door, see Illustration 3.4 to Illustration 3.10.
