2 Ultra1500 Digital Drives Quick Start
Publication 2092-QS001D-EN-P — July 2005
Installation Checklist
Always adhere to the following installation guidelines:
Mechanical Checklist
❒
The ambient temperature of the drive must be in the range of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
❒
The air should be free of oil, corrosives, or electrically conductive contaminates.
❒
The humidity of the drive environment must not exceed 95%, and water must never condense
on the drive.
❒
Ensure that adequate clearances are present above, below, and at the sides of the drive for
ventilation (see Figure 1). Allow adequate clearance in front for proper cable bend radius.
❒
Size the drive enclosure adequately to properly manage the ambient temperature, after taking the
drive power dissipation into consideration.
❒
Implementation of safety circuits and risk assessment is the responsibility of the machine
builder.
Electrical Checklist
❒
Follow all applicable local codes and regulations to safely ground your system.
❒
Separate AC input power wiring and motor power cables from other control and motor
feedback cables.
❒
When using transformer isolation of the input power, the secondary must be grounded.
Transformers must be sized at double the sum of the output power of each axis.
❒
The electronic equipment, enclosure, machine frame, and motor housing should all be
electrically bonded at high frequencies. Heavy braid wire should be used when mechanical
bonding is not possible.
❒
In applications that repeatedly apply and remove main AC power to the drive, ensure that the
cycling rate of the drive is not exceeded.
❒
AC line filters are recommended and should be located as close to the drive as possible.
