5.1.5 Acoustic Noise
Acoustic noise from the frequency converter comes from 3
sources
•
DC-link (intermediate circuit) coils
•
RFI filter choke
•
Internal fans
See
for acoustic noise ratings.
5.1.6 Vibration and Shock
The frequency converter tested according to a procedure
based on the IEC 68-2-6/34/35 and 36. These tests subject
the unit to 0.7 g forces, over the range of 18 to 1,000 Hz
random, in 3 directions for 2 hours. All Danfoss frequency
converters comply with requirements that correspond to
these conditions when the unit is wall or floor mounted, as
well as when mounted within panels bolted to walls or
floors.
5.1.7 Aggressive Atmospheres
5.1.7.1 Gases
Aggressive gases, such as hydrogen sulphide, chlorine, or ammonia can damage frequency converter electrical and
mechanical components. Contamination of the cooling air can also cause the gradual decomposition of PCB tracks and door
seals. Aggressive contaminants are often present in sewage treatment plants or swimming pools. A clear sign of an
aggressive atmosphere is corroded copper.
In aggressive atmospheres, restricted IP enclosures are recommended along with conformal-coated circuit boards. See
for conformal-coating values.
NOTICE
The frequency converter comes standard with class 3C2 coating. On request, class 3C3 coating is available.

Maximum values are transient peak values not to exceed 30 minutes per day.
5.1.7.2 Dust Exposure
Installation of frequency converters in environments with
high dust exposure is often unavoidable. Dust affects wall
or frame mounted units with IP55 or IP66 protection
rating, and also cabinet mounted devices with IP21 or IP20
protection rating. Take the 3 aspects described below into
account when frequency converters are installed in such
environments.
Reduced Cooling
Dust forms deposits on the surface of the device and
inside on circuit boards and the electronic components.
These deposits act as insulation layers and hamper heat
transfer to the ambient air, reducing the cooling capacity.
The components become warmer. This causes accelerated
aging of the electronic components, and the service life of
the unit decreases. Dust deposits on the heat sink in the
back of the unit also decrease the service life of the unit.
Cooling Fans
The airflow for cooling the unit is produced by cooling
fans, usually located on the back of the device. The fan
rotors have small bearings into which dust can penetrate
and act as an abrasive. This leads to bearing damage and
fan failure.
Filters
High-power frequency converters are equipped with
cooling fans that expel hot air from the interior of the
