FR1 mounting instructions
Step 1.
Lift the drive out from the carton and remove the packaging.
The magnetic cores and cable ties are only included in EMI
version drive.
Step 2.
Screw mounting:
Attach the drive to the mounting plate
with two M5x20 (or 3/16 in.) screws and two M5 (or 3/16 in.)
nuts. The opening dimension on the mounting plate should
follow required dimension (refer to the dimension drawing in
Table 1 of this document).
DIN Rail mounting:
Lift the drive at an angle about 30
degrees. Align the top hooks of drive DIN rail mounting slot
with DIN rail top edge. Push down and rotate the drive to
clip the bottom hooks on the bottom DIN rail edge.
Step 3.
(EMI version only):
The input wires (including 3 line wires and 1 input grounding
wire) should run through the input magnetic core before
connecting to input terminal block and grounding hole. Use
a cable tie to tie the input magnetic cores to the input wires.
The output wires (only 3 motor wires) should run through the
output magnetic core before connecting to output terminal
block.
The output grounding wire should not run through the output
magnetic core. Use a cable tie to tie the output magnetic
cores to the output wires. The maximum distance between
input / output magnetic cores top surface and drive bottom
surface is 100 mm (3.94 in.). The input magnetic core and
output magnetic core are the same for FR1.
