3.1 Environment
The environment will directly affect the proper operation and the life of the inverter, so install
the inverter in an environment that complies with the following conditions:
z
Ambient temperature: 14~122 deg F (-10 to 50 deg C)
z
Avoid exposure to rain or moisture.
z
Avoid direct sunlight.
z
Avoid smoke and salinity.
z
Avoid corrosive liquid and gas.
z
Avoid dust, lint fibers, and metal filings.
z
Keep away from radio active and
flammable materials.
z
Avoid electromagnetic interference (soldering machines, power machine).
z
Avoid vibration (stamping, punchpress). Add a vibration-proof pad if the situation can not
be avoided.
z
If several inverters are placed in the same control panel, provide heat remoual means to
maintain the temperature below 50
degree C
. See figure 3-1 for proper drive arrangment.
Figure 3-1 Panel and enclosure arrangement for drives
z
Place the front side of the inverter outward and the top upward to improve heat dissipation.
