Install the Kinetix 350 Drive System
System Design Guidelines
Use the information in this section when designing your enclosure and
planning to mount your system components on the panel.

System Mounting Requirements
• To comply with UL and CE requirements, the Kinetix® 350 system must
be enclosed in a grounded conductive enclosure. It must that offer
protection as defined in standard EN 60529 (IEC 529) to IP4X such
that they are not accessible to an operator or unskilled person. A NEMA
4X enclosure exceeds these requirements providing protection to IP66.
• The panel that you install inside the enclosure for mounting your system
components must be on a flat, rigid, vertical surface that won’t be
subjected to shock, vibration, moisture, oil mist, dust, or corrosive
vapors.
• Size the drive enclosure so as not to exceed the maximum ambient
temperature rating. Consider heat dissipation specifications for all drive
components.
• Segregate input power wiring and motor power cables from control
wiring and motor feedback cables. Use shielded cable for power wiring
and provide a grounded 360° clamp termination.

ATTENTION:
Plan the installation of your system so that you can cut, drill,
tap, and weld with the system that is removed from the enclosure. Because
the system is of the open type construction, be careful to keep any metal
debris from falling into it. Metal debris or other foreign matter can become
lodged in the circuitry, which can result in damage to components.
