Maintenance
In normal conditions, Vacon NX frequency converters are maintenance-free. However, we
recommend to keep the converter clean, e.g. by cleaning the heatsink with compressed air
whenever necessary.
In IP54 units, the air filters in the door and in the roof should be cleaned or replaced regularly.
We also recommended to follow proactive maintenance schedule to ensure the highest possible
utilization rate of the cabinet drive.
