General rules for protecting Power Modules against environmental effects
To ensure that the Power Module is installed in the correct environmental conditions, please
make sure that you adhere to the following guidelines:
● The Power Modules are designed:
–
to be installed in an electrical cabinet
– with protection against the ingress of solid foreign objects ≥ 12.5 mm
– without protection against the ingress of water
● Furthermore, observe the following conditions:
–
Ensure that the device is free of dust and dirt.
(when using a vacuum cleaner, this must comply with ESD equipment rules)
– Keep the device away from water, solvents and chemicals.
Take care to install it away from potential water hazards, for example, do not install it
beneath pipes that are subject to condensation. Avoid installing it where excessive
humidity and condensation may occur.
– Keep it within the maximum and minimum operating temperatures.
– Ensure that the correct level of ventilation and air flow is provided.
– Fast temperature changes of the air drawn in (e.g. by using cooling units) are not
permitted due to the danger of condensation. Condensation is not permissible when
switching on.
– Ensure that all Power Modules and the cabinet are grounded according to the
guidelines given in this chapter (see Chapter Connecting up, switching on (Page 29)).
It is only permissible that the Power Module is installed in a vertical position.
