Mechanical Installation

◆ Installation Environment

The installation environment plays an important part in obtaining the optimum performance from the drive and in
maintaining its functions over the long term. Install the drive in an environment matching the following specifications.
Environment
Installation Area Indoors
Enclosure Type IP40 (simplified dustproof type)
–5°C to +40°C
Note: If the ambient temperature changes greatly, condensation may occur. When installing the drive in
Ambient
Temperature
Relative Humidity 85%RH max. (no condensing)
–20°C to +60°C (for very short term when handling)
Storage
Note: When storing the drive for a long time without supplying power to it, refer to
Temperature
• Location free from oil mist, corrosive gases/liquids, combustible gases, dust, etc.
• Location free from radioactive and combustible materials
Atmosphere
• Location low in chlorides
• Location with no exposure to direct sunlight
Altitude 2000 m max.
Pollution Degree
Level 2 or lower
NOTICE: Never install ducts in the air exhaust system. Making modifications, such as connecting air exhaust ducts to the exterior of
the drive panel's cooling fan, could reduce the cooling airflow and result in an abnormal rise in temperature or drive failure.
Do not use air exhaust ducts.
NOTICE: Take measures to prevent salt-bearing atmospheric air, rain, and dust getting into the switch room. Insulation is impaired and
metals are corroded by absorption of moisture and salt damage, and this can cause the drive to malfunction. Also install an
air conditioner or ventilation system with sufficient capacity to prevent all potential damage to the drive and the other devices
in the switch room, and maintain an ambient temperature of no higher than 40?C and a humidity of no greater than 85%
(Yaskawa recommends the installation of an air conditioner).
NOTICE: Observe the following precautions when installing the drive.
When installing the drive take care to prevent metal chips from drilling, oil, water, from and so on getting stuck to the drive or
inside it. And when the installation work is completed, check thoroughly to ensure that no tools or unused parts have been
left inside the panel, and that there are no foreign objects or obstructions on or around parts where power flows, at the air
filters, or on the ventilation louver on the top of the drive. Failure to comply could result in damage to the panel.
Note: 1. Operate the drive with the fan cover on top of the panel mounted. If the installation space is limited and the fan cover needs to be
removed, contact your Yaskawa representative or the nearest Yaskawa sales office in advance.
2. If the drive has to be installed in a location subject to a high level of vibration caused by machines such as cranes, contact your
Yaskawa representatives or the nearest Yaskawa sales office in advance. The drive generates noise, including radio noise, to some
extent. This should be considered when selecting the installation location.
3. Please comply with the law of the relevant country when you install the drive panel. For details, contact your Yaskawa representative.
