INSTALLATION
5.1
Mounting
The inverter can be mounted in either a vertical or horizontal position on a wall or on the back plane
of a cubicle. Enough space must be reserved around the inverter to ensure sufficient cooling, see
Figure
5-6. You must follow the minimum dimensions for installation, see Table
5-6 and Table
5-7.
Also make sure that the mounting plane is relatively even.
The inverter is fixed with four screws (or bolts, depending on the unit size). The dimensions for
installation are presented in Figure
5-6
and Table
5-6.
Lift units bigger than FR7 out of the package using a jib crane. Ask the factory or your local
distributor for information on how to lift the unit safely.
The following pages show the dimensions for Vacon NX with a default enclosure in Figure
5-1, and
with flange mounting in Figures 5-2 and Figure
5-4. Dimensions for the opening needed in flange
mounting are given in Table
5-3 and Table
5-5.
