Temperature limits

Ambient temperature: See the technical data.
Minimum coolant inlet temperature: Condensation or frost is not allowed. The minimum
coolant temperature to avoid condensation (at an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar / 100 kPa)
is shown below as a function of the relative humidity (RH) and the ambient temperature
(T
).
air
To avoid all kind of condensation inside the converter: ABB highly recommends to maintain
/ heat up the cooling liquid +10 °C (+50 °F) above the ambient temperature (ie, air
temperature outside the converter), within the limits that the cooling liquid minimum
temperature is +5 °C (41 °F) and maximum temperature is +60 °C (140 °F).

Not allowed as standard but the coolant temperature must be 5 °C (41 °F) or above. Consult
an ABB representative if operation below coolant temperature 5 °C (41 °F) is required.
At an air temperature of 45 °C (113 °F) and relative humidity of 65% the coolant temperature
Example:
may not be below +36.8 °C (98.2 °F).
Maximum coolant inlet temperature: 52 °C (+125.6 °F) without derating of the converter
output capacity. Range above 52 °C (+125.6 °F) is allowed as follows:
Range
52...60 °C (125.6...140 °F)
Maximum temperature rise: 13 °C (55.4 °F); depends on mass flow.
