Examine Feasibility of the Selected External Heatsink
When you select an external heatsink, if installation conditions, for example installation space,
limit your selection, use the formula to calculate the heatsink plate temperature and examine the
external heatsink.
If T
HSP
value is lower than the maximum temperature of the heatsink, you can use the selected
external heatsink.
Refer to
Monitor Heatsink Plate Temperature on page 10
to monitor drive heatsink plate
temperature.

External Heatsink Selection
The examples show applicable heatsink selection for drive model 2006 when
C6-01 = 1
[Normal / Heavy Duty Selection = Normal Duty Rating]
.
These are examples of calculations for the external heatsink from MIZUTANI ELECTRIC IND.
