Installation Environment
Install the drive in an environment matching the conditions below to prolong the optimum performance life of the drive.
Table i.2 Installation Environment
Environment
Conditions
Installation Area
Indoors
Ambient
Temperature
-10 °C to +40 °C (14 to 104 °F) IP20/NEMA Type 1 Enclosure, External Heatsink (2A0011 to 2A0273 and 4A0005 to 4A0302)
-10 °C to +50 °C (14 to 122 °F) IP00/Open Type Enclosure (2A0343 and 2A0396, and 4A0361 to 4A0590)
Note:
1. To install a heatsink on the outside of a panel, design the panel to keep the air temperature inside the panel
within 10 °C (50 °F) [5 °C (41 °F) for 2A0273 and 4A0124] of the outside air temperature.
2. Ambient temperature range for continuous operations is -10 to +40 °C (14 to 104 °F) when external heatsink
installation method is applied for models 2A0343 and 2A0396 and 4A0361 to 4A0590.
Humidity
95% RH or less and free of condensation
Storage
Temperature
-20 to +70 °C (-4 to +158 °F)
Surrounding Area
Install the drive in an area free from:
• oil mist and dust
• metal shavings, oil, water, or other foreign materials
• radioactive materials
• combustible materials (e.g., wood)
• harmful gases and liquids
• excessive vibration
• chlorides
• direct sunlight.
Altitude
Up to 1000 meters without derating. Up to 3000 meters with output current and voltage derating
Vibration
10 to 20 Hz at 9.8 m/s

(2A0011 to 2A0031 and 4A0005 to 4A0027) or
2.0 m/s

(2A0046 to 2A00396 and 4A0034 to 4A0590)
Orientation
Install the drive vertically to maintain maximum cooling effects.
NOTICE: Avoid placing drive peripheral devices, transformers, or other electronics near the drive as the noise created can lead to erroneous
operation. If such devices must be used in close proximity to the drive, take proper steps to shield the drive from noise.
NOTICE: Prevent foreign matter such as metal shavings and wire clippings from falling into the drive during installation. Failure to comply
could result in damage to the drive. Place a temporary cover over the top of the drive during installation. Remove the temporary cover before
drive start-up, as the cover will reduce ventilation and cause the drive to overheat.
u
Installation Orientation and Spacing
Install the drive upright as illustrated in
to maintain proper cooling.
