Examining the installation site

Examine the installation site. Make sure that:
• The installation site is sufficiently ventilated or cooled to remove heat from
the drive. See the technical data.
• The ambient conditions of the drive meet the specifications. See the technical
data.
• The material behind, above and below the drive is non-flammable.
• The installation surface is as close to vertical as possible and strong enough
to support the drive.
• There is sufficient free space around the drive for cooling, maintenance, and
operation. See the free space specifications for the drive.
• Make sure that there are no sources of strong magnetic fields such as
high-current single-core conductors or contactor coils near the drive. A strong
magnetic field can cause interference or inaccuracy in the operation of the
drive.
• For IP66 (UL Type 4X) drives: The drive is protected from sun with an optional
sun shield to prevent excessive heating.
Note: The drive is UV resistant.
