Planning the cabinet installation
33
When the drive module is installed in another position than vertically
• Fasten the drive module by the fastening points.
• Lay support brackets below the module to carry the module weight.
• Ensure that hot air flows freely out of the cabinet and does not build up pressure.
• Reserve enough space for the cabling.
• In case of a short-circuit inside the drive module, hot ionized gases may escape
sideways/upwards from the module through its ventilation holes. Ensure that the
cabinet is constructed so that this will not cause any danger.
• The outlet cooling air is 25...30 °C (77...86 °F) hotter than the inlet air and flows
sideways. Ensure that this does not cause danger.
• Ensure that the front panel, and preferably also the profiled side panel, can be
removed and the cooling fan and capacitor pack changed.
• Ensure that the module can be changed, e.g. by sliding out of the cabinet on rails.
Drive module of frame size R7 on its side
Support the module from below.
The fastening points are not
sturdy enough to carry the
weight of the module when laid
on its side.
Leave space in front of the
module for maintenance.
Ensure that the cooling
air will flow freely and is
clean. Use filter mats if
the input cooling air is
taken near the floor
surface and contains
dust.
Air baffle for
preventing cooling
air recirculation
Prevent dripping water from
entering the drive module.

WARNING! Do not place the
support brackets under the studs.
They cannot carry the weight of
the drive module and the drive
module would deform when
placed onto them. The studs can
be sawn off.
Place the support brackets on
the same level as the spacers of
the back plate of the bottom exit
kit.
Note: Air inlet into the drive module
goes through the front gratings of
the module. Do not cover them.
