This chapter gives a description of the mechanical installation of the drive.
D.1 Safety
WARNING: For frame sizes R6 to R9: Use the lifting eyes of the drive when you lift the drive. Do not tilt the drive. The drive
is heavy and its center of gravity is high. An overturning drive can cause physical injury.
D.2 Examining the Installation Site
The drive must be installed in an upright position with the cooling section against a wall. All IP21 (UL Type 1) and IP55 drives
and UL Type 12 drives of frames R1 to R3 can be installed tightly side by side. For UL Type 12 drives of frames R4 to R9,
leave 100mm (4 in) between the hoods.
Make sure that the installation site agrees with these requirements:
• The installation site has sufficient ventilation to prevent overheating of the drive. See section Losses, cooling data and
noise.
• The operation conditions of the drive agree with the specifications in section Ambient conditions.
• The wall is vertical, not flammable and strong enough to hold the weight of the drive.
• The material below the installation is not flammable.
• There is enough free space above and below the drive for cooling air flow, service and maintenance. There is enough free
space in front of the drive for operation, service and maintenance.
