3. Mechanical Installation
3.1. General
The Optidrive should be mounted in a vertical position only, on a flat, flame resistant, vibration free mounting using the integral
mounting holes.
Do not mount flammable material close to the Optidrive.
Ensure that the minimum cooling air gaps, as detailed in sections
3.6. Guidelines for Enclosure mounting (IP20 Units)
,
3.9. Guidelines for Mounting (IP66 Units)
3.8. Guidelines for Mounting (IP55 Units)
are left clear.
Ensure that the ambient temperature range does not exceed the permissible limits for the Optidrive given in section
Provide suitable clean, moisture and contaminant free cooling air sufficient to fulfil the cooling requirements of the Optidrive.
3.2. Before Installation
Carefully Unpack the Optidrive and check for any signs of damage. Notify the shipper immediately if any exist.
Check the drive rating label to ensure it is of the correct type and power requirements for the application.
To prevent accidental damage always store the Optidrive in its original box until required. Storage should be clean and dry and
within the temperature range –40°C to +60°C.
3.3. UL Compliant Installation
Note the following for UL-compliant installation:
For an up to date list of UL compliant products, please refer to UL listing NMMS.E226333.
The drive can be operated within an ambient temperature range as stated in section
For IP20 units, installation is required in a pollution degree 1 environment.
For IP55 & IP66 units, installation in a pollution degree 2 environment is permissible.
UL Listed ring terminals / lugs must be used for all bus bar and grounding connections.
Refer to section
10.3. Additional Information for UL Approved Installations
3.4. Installation Following a Period of Storage
Where the drive has been stored for some time prior to installation,
or has remained without the main power supply present for an
extended period of time, it is necessary to reform the DC capacitors
within the drive according to the following table before operation.
For drives which have not been connected to the main power supply
for a period of more than 2 years, this requires a reduced mains
voltage mains voltage to be applied for a time period, and gradually
increased prior to operating the drive. The voltage levels relative to
the drive rated voltage, and the time periods for which they must be
applied are shown in the following table. Following completion of the
procedure, the drive may be operated as normal.

This is only valid for non low harmonic version - see section
