Location for installation
The driver is designed and manufactured to be incorporated in equipment. Install it in a well-ventilated location that
provides easy access for inspection. The location must also satisfy the following conditions:
•
Inside an enclosure that is installed indoors (provide vent holes)
•
Operating ambient temperature: 0 to +50 °C [+32 to +122 °F] (non-freezing)
•
Operating ambient humidity: 85 % or less (non-condensing)
•
Area free of explosive atmosphere, toxic gas (such as sulfuric gas), or liquid
•
Area not exposed to direct sun
•
Area free of excessive amount of dust, iron particles or the like
•
Area not subject to splashing water (rain, water droplets), oil (oil droplets) or other liquids
•
Area free of excessive salt
•
Area not subject to continuous vibration or excessive shocks
•
Area free of excessive electromagnetic noise (from welders, power machinery, etc.)
•
Area free of radioactive materials, magnetic fields or vacuum
•
Up to 1,000 m (3,300 ft.) above sea level

Installation method
The driver can be installed in any direction.
Install the driver onto a flat metal plate offering high heat conductivity [material: aluminum, 150×150×2 mm
(5.91×5.91×0.08 in.) or equivalent].
When installing the driver, use the cutouts for mounting and secure to the metal plate with two screws (M3: not
included).

Tightening torque: 0.5 N·m (71 oz-in)
•
Install the driver in an enclosure.
•
Do not install any equipment that generates a large amount of heat or noise near the driver.
•
Do not install the driver underneath a host controller or other equipment sensitive to heat.
•
If the ambient temperature of the driver exceeds 50 °C (122 °F), reconsider the ventilation
conditions such as providing forced cooling by using fans.
