Notes: 

1.  The photos in this instruction are based on a D4 Frame installation.  D3 and E2 frame 

drives use  parts similar to those in the photos however they are sized appropriately for 

those drives. 

2.  A doorfan(s) is required on the enclosure to remove the heat losses not contained in the 

backchannel of the drive and any additional losses generated from other components in-

stalled inside the enclosure.  The total required air flow must be calculated so that the ap-

propriate fans can be selected.  Some enclosure manufacturers offer software for perform-

ing the calculations (i.e. Rittal Therm software).   

If the VLT is the only heat generating component in the enclosure, the minimum airflow re-

quired at an ambient temperature of 45°C for the D3 and D4 frame drives is 391 m

3

/h (230 

cfm). The minimum airflow required at an ambient temperature of 45°C for the E2 frame 

drive is 782 m

3

/h (460 cfm). 

3.  If external duct work is added to the exhaust path of the drive, additional back pressure will 

be created that will reduce the cooling of the drive.  The drive must be derated to accom-

modate the reduced cooling.  First, the pressure drop must be calculated, then refer to the 

derating tables located in the VLT High Power Operating Instructions.
