Chapter 2 Installation and Storage
2-1 Installation
Notes
Pay close attention on the following installation notes:
1) Do not bend or strain the connection cables between servo drive and motor.
2) When mounting servo drive, make sure to tighten screws to secure the drive in place.
3) If the servo motor shaft is coupled directly to a rotating device ensure that the alignment specifications
of the servo motor, coupling, and device are followed. Failure to do so may cause unnecessary loads or
premature failure to the servo motor.
4) If the length of cable connected between servo drive and motor is more than 20m, please increase the
wire gauge of the encoder cable and motor connection cable (connected to U, V, W terminals).
5) Make sure to tighten the screws for securing motor.
2-2 Storage
Conditions
The product should be kept in the shipping carton before installation. In order to retain the warranty
coverage, the AC drive should be stored properly when it is not to be used for an extended period of time.
Some storage suggestions are:
Store in a clean and dry location free from direct sunlight.
Store within an ambient temperature range of -20°C to +65°C (-4°F to 149°F).
Store within a relative humidity range of 0% to 95% and non-condensing.
Do not store in a place subjected to corrosive gases and liquids.
Correctly packaged and placed on a solid surface.
2-3 Installation
Conditions
Operating Temperature
ASDA-A Series Servo Drive
: 0°C to 55°C (32°F to 131°F)
ASMT Series Servo Motor
: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
The ambient temperature of servo drive for long-term reliability should be under 45°C (113°F).
If the ambient temperature of servo drive is greater than 45°C (113°F), please install the drive in a well-
ventilated location and do not obstruct the airflow for the cooling fan.
Caution
The servo drive and motor will generate heat. If they are installed in a control panel, please ensure
sufficient space around the units for heat dissipation.
