3.2.- INSTALLATION LOCATION
The device must be installed in an environment where the temperature outside the cabinet is between
-10ºC and 45ºC, with a maximum humidity of 95% without condensation.
Do not install the device close to a hot spot and keep it out of direct sunlight.
Install the AFQm in a place protected from water, dust, flammable liquids, gases and
corrosive substances.
Make sure there are no power factor correction devices installed in the same mains as
the AFQm .
If there are any compensation devices, these must be detuned in order to avoid inter-
ference between them and the AFQm .
3.2.1.- VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
Section
“4.6 - THERMAL PROTECTION”
describes all the thermal protections available in the device.
3.2.1.1.- Wall-type AFQm
The device has a power control system that controls the rotation speed of the fans and the maximum
power of the device according to the internal temperature, to ensure the best performance in any
condition.

3.2.1.2.- Rack-type AFQm
The Rack-type
AFQm
uses a forced ventilation cooling system, with an air inlet on the front panel and
an air outlet at the back of the device.
Once installed, the device’s flows of inlet air and outlet air must be allowed to circulate freely. At max-
imum power, the Rack-type AFQm circulates an airflow of 375 m
3
/h .
The device has a power control system that controls the rotation speed of the fans and the maximum
power of the device according to the internal temperature, to ensure the best performance in any
condition.
To maintain the device’s performance, we recommend ensuring that the air circulates freely through
the front panel of the Rack-type AFQm , and that the rear is free of obstacles, with a gap of at least
300 mm
.
