Mounting location
The servo amplifier should be installed in an enclosure, e.g. control

cabinet, that conforms to the protection class required for the envi-
ronment.
The mounting location must be free from conductive and aggressive

materials.
Make sure you keep the necessary space clear above and below the

servo amplifier (see section entitled "Installing the servo amplifier")
Environmental conditions
When installing the system in an enclosure such as a control cabinet,

the environmental data for the servo amplifier must be taken into ac-
count. Details can be found in the chapter entitled "Technical Details".
Protect the servo amplifier from undue stress. In particular, do not al-

low any components to become bent and/or insulation distances to
be modified during transportation and handling.
Make sure there is an adequate flow of cool, filtered air from the bot-

tom of the control cabinet or use a heat exchanger. Please note the
ambient temperature of 0 - 40 °C with nominal data, 40 - 55 °C with
power derating 2.5 %/K.
In extreme ambient conditions, additional measures may be required

in order to keep within the prescribed value range.
Earthing, EMC
Make sure that the servo amplifier and motor are earthed correctly.

Do not use varnished (non-conductive) mounting plates.
Components that generate magnetic fields should not be installed di-

rectly next to the servo amplifier. If necessary, shield the magnetic
fields.
Damage due to electrostatic discharge!

Electrostatic discharge can damage components. Ensure discharge
before touching the servo amplifier, e.g. by touching an earthed, con-
ductive surface or by wearing an earthed armband.
Power supply
The servo amplifier and power supply should be installed close to

each other on the conductive, earthed mounting plate inside the con-
trol cabinet.
Control cabinet lighting
Use low interference panel lighting for inside the control cabinet.
