1.9 Special Conditions
1.9.1 Derating for Ambient Temperature
and Switching Frequency
The ambient temperature measured over 24 hours should
be at least 5
°
C lower than the max. ambient temperature.
If the frequency converter is operated at high ambient
temperature, the continuous output current should be
decreased. For derating curve, see
Design Guide MG18C3YY
.
1.9.2 Derating for Low Air Pressure
The cooling capability of air is decreased at low air
pressure. For altitudes above 2000 m, please contact
Danfoss regarding PELV. Below 1000 m altitude no de-
rating is necessary, but above 1000 m the ambient
temperature or the maximum output current should be
decreased. Decrease the output by 1% per 100 m altitude
above 1000 m or reduce the max. ambient temperature by
1
°
per 200 m.
