Chapter 2 – Mechanical Installation
The ACx 601 should be installed in an upright position with the cooling
section mounted against a flat surface. The mounting surface should
be as close to vertical as possible and of non-flammable material.
Sufficient room around the ACx 601 is required to enable cooling air
flow, service and maintenance. Refer to Enclosure space
Requirements in Appendix A on page A-9. Be sure to also observe all
requirements of applicable safety regulations.
Check the intended installation site to make sure that the environment
is suitable. The service life and performance of the ACx 600 can be
adversely affected if the drive is subjected to unsuitable environmental
conditions. Complete environmental rating specifications are listed in
Appendix A.
If unsuitable conditions are found at the intended installation site,
select a different location, improve the environment at the selected site,
or provide additional protection for the ACx 601.
Make sure that the ambient temperature is suitable for the type of
enclosure provided and the output current required. (pages A-3 &
A-4 and A-12)
Make sure that the installation site altitude is suitable for the output
current required. (A-12)
Make sure that the ambient air is sufficiently clean and dry or that
the drive is adequately protected from contaminants. (A-12)
Make sure that the enclosure selected is adequate to protect the
drive considering site conditions regarding access by unauthorized
persons, liquids that might be splashed, sprayed or fall on the
enclosure, or any other foreign material that might get into the
enclosure.
Do not mount the drive on any surface with temperature exceeding
the allowable air temperature.
Do not mount the drive in direct sunlight.
Do not mount the drive where it will be subjected to excessive
vibration. (A-12)
