FCM 300 Series
MG.03.B6.2G - VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark
Installation
When the application calls for direct coupling,
the shafts must be correctly aligned in all three
planes. Bad alignment can be a major source of
noise and vibration.
Allowance must be made for shaft endfloat and
thermal expansion in both axial and vertical planes.
It is preferable to use flexible drive couplings.

Lna = adjusted L10 life rating taking account of:-Reliability -Material improvements -Lubrication conditions
2 Max. permissible radial load at end of shaft (horizontal mounting).

Mechanical Installation of the FCM 300
Do not force fittings couplings, pulleys,
etc. onto the FCM 300 motor shaft, as
this will cause bearing damage,
increasing bearing noise and
significantly reducing bearing life.
To avoid overheating, the ambient temperature
should not exceed 104
o
F/40
o
C. The average 24-
hour temperature is not to exceed 95 o F/35 o C. For
more information, see "Derating".
Before installation, check unit for fan cover damage,
foot/mounting damage, shaft damage and loose
fasteners. Check nameplate data on motor.
The FCM 300 unit should not be mounted such that
the inverter portion of the unit (regardless of feet
position) is upside down.
Mounting Clearances
FCM 300 units must be installed with adequate
access for routine maintenance.
Minimum clearance = 29.5 in (0.75 m) on all sides
Minimum clearance at fan inlet = 2 in. (50 mm)
Where several units are installed in close proximity,
care must be taken to ensure warm air from units is
not recirculated.
FCM 300 units must be mounted on rigid, level
surfaces.
Fitting Pinions, Pulleys and Coupling
These should be sized to fit FCM 300 standard
dimensions.
