2. System description
2.1. Location
Guidelines are provided in this section for choosing a suitable environment and adapting the unit to it properly.
2.1.1. Environment
Place the units in a place which is accessible for installation and maintenance work and which
permits use of the keyboard and the reading of the front indicator LEDs.
Never place any object on top of the unit.
The radiator can reach 85 °C. Do not place any material sensitive to the high surrounding air tempera-
tures close to the inverter.
2.1.2. IP rating
Ingecon
®
μWind units have an IP65 level of protection against external agents which enables them to be installed
outdoors.
IP65 means that the unit is fully protected against the ingress of dust and also against water jets from any direction
as defined for this level of protection in standard
IEC60529 .
However, excessive moisture can cause a safety shutdown of the unit to protect it. Hence the following is recommended:
Locate the units in a place protected from rain and avoiding corrosive atmospheres.
2.1.3. Ambient temperature
Ingecon
®
μWind units are designed to operate at between -20 °C and +70 °C.
To operate in HT mode, the maximum ambient temperature must not exceed 45 °C.
To operate in HP mode, the maximum ambient temperature must not exceed 40 °C.
2.1.4. Atmospheric conditions
The ambient air must be clean and relative humidity must not exceed 50% at over 40 °C. Higher levels of relative
humidity, up to 95%, can be tolerated at below 30 °C.
It should be borne in mind that moderate condensation may occasionally occur as a consequence of temperature vari-
ations and, apart from the unit’s own protection, vigilance of these units is necessary once they have been started up
on sites where it is suspected that the conditions described above will not be present.
2.1.5. Contamination class
The pollution degree for which the units have been designed is level 3.
