16 Mechanical installation – General
Additional requirements for cabinet installations
Make sure that the cooling air gratings of the drive will not be covered. Make sure
that the required cooling air flow is achieved. In a totally closed cabinet with no
forced ventilation, a fan for circulating the air inside the cabinet may be needed.
For UL installations, plan the wire bending radius of input power and motor cables
according to UL rules.
