It should be free from vibration less than 0.6g, direct sunlight, high humidity, condensation, corrosive/explosive/combustible gas, oil dirt, dust, and metal powder. For single AC drives less than 22KW, there is no specific A dimension requirement, but for those over 22KW, an A dimension of more than 50mm is needed. For multiple AC drives installed in rows, an insulation guide plate is required. For electrical installation, connect the main circuit terminals according to the specifications provided, including the three-phase AC power supply, Moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB), Electromagnetic contactor, AC input reactor, Braking resistor (Optional), Braking unit (or energy feedback unit) (optional), DC input reactor (Optional), and ensuring reliable grounding for both the motor and the AC drive. Do not install a capacitor or surge suppressor on the output side. Install an anti-interference filter to minimize interference from harmonics.
