Mounting and Cooling
The AMD2000 must be installed vertically (see below for installation process).
Adequate ventilation for the drive must be provided, and the drive must not be installed in the
vicinity of other heat generating equipment or devices
The 3A drive is designed to operate without any additional cooling methods.
The 9A drive has a cooling fan inside to allow the heat sink to be cooled.
Both the 3A and 9A drives are intended to be mounted in electrical cabinets and it is the
responsibility of the installer to ensure the drives are adequately earthed through the provided
protected earthing points denoted with the
symbol. Use appropriate ring terminals for this
connection.
If armature termination brackets are required to be fitted for EMC compliance see page for
fitting instructions.
The 3A drive operates without an additional cooling method, whereas the 9A drive requires
forced air flow from a fan to allow full operation within the acceptable temperature range
If the required cooling and air flow requirements are not met, performance of the AMD2000 will
deteriorate and the product lifetime will be reduced
The AMD2000 should be mounted on a panel with a minimum thickness of 3mm.
Mounting of drives for effective cooling inside the electrical
4.3.13.1
cabinet:
The AMD2000 drives should be mounted with at least 50mm clearance above and below to
allow for effective cooling
The AMD2000 3A drive must have at least 15mm horizontal space between itself and the
cabinet wall, and at least 30mm space between adjacent drives
The AMD2000 9A drive must have at least 8mm horizontal space between itself and the
cabinet wall, and at least 15mm space between adjacent drives.
