Mechanical installation
Contents of this chapter
This chapter tells how to examine the installation site, unpack and examine the
delivery and install the drive mechanically.
Installation alternatives
You can install the drive:
• with screws on to an assembly plate
• on to a DIN installation rail (IEC/EN 60715, top hat type, width 35 mm [1.4 in]
× height 7.5 mm [0.3 in]).
Installation requirements:
• The drive is designed for cabinet installation and has a degree of protection
of IP20 / UL open type as standard.
• Make sure that there is a minimum of 75 mm (3 in) of free space at the top and
bottom of the drive (at the cooling air inlet and outlet), measured from the
frame.
• You can install several drives side by side.
• Install R0 drives vertically, because they do not have a cooling fan.
• If you install frame R0 drives side-by-side, the maximum ambient temperature
is 40 °C.
• You can install frames R1, R2, R3 and R4 tilted to a maximum of 90 degrees,
from vertical to fully horizontal orientation.
