Installation Checklist
Always adhere to the following installation guidelines:
Mechanical Checklist
❒ The ambient temperature of the drive must be in the range of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
❒ The air should be free of oil, corrosives, or electrically conductive contaminates.
❒ The humidity of the drive environment must not exceed 95%, and water must never condense
on the drive.
❒ Ensure that adequate clearances are present above, below, and at the sides of the drive for
ventilation (see Figure 1). Allow adequate clearance in front for proper cable bend radius.
❒ Size the drive enclosure adequately to properly manage the ambient temperature, after taking the
drive power dissipation into consideration.
❒ Implementation of safety circuits and risk assessment is the responsibility of the machine
builder.
Electrical Checklist
❒ Follow all applicable local codes and regulations to safely ground your system.
❒ Separate AC input power wiring and motor power cables from other control and motor
feedback cables.
❒ When using transformer isolation of the input power, the secondary must be grounded.
Transformers must be sized at double the sum of the output power of each axis.
❒ The electronic equipment, enclosure, machine frame, and motor housing should all be
electrically bonded at high frequencies. Heavy braid wire should be used when mechanical
bonding is not possible.
❒ In applications that repeatedly apply and remove main AC power to the drive, ensure that the
cycling rate of the drive is not exceeded.
❒ AC line filters are recommended and should be located as close to the drive as possible.
