AKD-N Installation | 8 Mechanical Installation
8.1 Important Notes
CAUTION
High EMC Voltage Level.
Risk of electrical shock, if drive (or motor) is not properly EMC-grounded.
Do not use painted (i.e. non-conductive) mounting plates.
Use both PE connections.
To keep impedance as low as possible, we recommend copper earth-
ing straps for the PE connections.
CAUTION
High Temperatur
Risk of light burns. The housing of the drive can reach temperatures up to
80°C in operation.
Measure the temperature, and wait until the housing has cooled down
below 40°C before touching it.
Ensure free space of minimum 50 mm to all sides of the AKD-N.
Protect the drive from impermissible stresses. In particular, do not let any components
become bent or any insulation distances altered during transport and handling. Avoid contact
with electronic components and contacts.
The drive will switch itself off in case of overheating. Ensure that the mounting space
matches the requirements (
Do not mount devices that produce magnetic fields directly beside the drive. Strong mag-
netic fields can directly affect internal components. Install devices which produce magnetic
field with distance to the drives and/or shield the magnetic fields.
An optimized thermal strategy is mandatory for AKD-N performance. Observe the inform-
ation given in the Decentralized System Projecting Guide and in chapter (
