Environmental Requirements
Risk of damage to VFD
installation, or environment.
•
Do not mount VFD on equipment with excessive vibration.
•
Install in a location where temperature is within the range of product rating.
•
Install VFD on a non-combustible surface. The VFD generates heat during normal operation.
•
The VFD should be mounted in a Pollution Degree 2 environment. If VFD will be installed in an environment
with a high probability of dust, metallic particles, mists, corrosive gas or other contaminants, the VFD must be
mounted inside the appropriate electrical enclosure with proper NEMA, UL or IP rating and adequate cooling.
•
When two or more VFDs are installed in a ventilated enclosure, the cooling system should provide adequate
airflow for all the VFDs. Do not install VFD above another heat source (another VFD, inductive reactors, etc.).
The VFD must be installed and used in a controlled environment that meets the following requirements:
Ambient Temperature
Location
Altitude
Relative Humidity
Vibration
The drive electronics are air-cooled. Provide
enough clearance for an airflow around the VFD.
Mount VFD vertically (top up) for proper heat dis-
sipation.
Do not mount VFD in direct sunlight or near other
heat sources.
Do not block cooling vents or airflow with any
panel components or wires.
See minimum mounting clearance table below for
different VFD frame sizes.
