3.1 Introduction
This chapter provides a description of the installation and the electrical
connections for the variable frequency drive DC 1 series.
3.2 Mounting position
DC1-…CE1 and DC1-...OE1 variable frequency drives have a conformal
coating on their printed circuit boards (coated boards) that provides enhanced
protection from moisture and soiling.
DC1 variable frequency drives are available with two enclosure versions:
•
IP20 / NEMA 0 degree of protection: for use in control panels.
•
IP66 / NEMA 4X protection type: This enclosure version protects against
moisture and dust and is designed for use in harsh conditions.
The devices DC1-...OE1 in protection class IP66 additionally have an
“Outdoor Rating”. This ensures a high UV resistance, so that they can
be used outdoors without a roof.
Without the required additional measures, using the device in the following
environments is strictly prohibited:
•
Explosion-proof Ranges
•
Environments with damaging substances:
•
Oils and acids
•
Gases and fumes
•
Dust
•
Radiated noise
•
Environments with mechanical vibration and impact loads that go
beyond the requirements in EN 50178.
•
Areas in which the variable frequency drive takes care of safety
functions that must guarantee machine and personnel protection.
￫
While installing and/or assembling the variable frequency drive,
cover all ventilation slots in order to ensure that no foreign
bodies can enter the device.
￫
Perform all installation work with the specified tools and without
the use of excessive force.
