3.2 Pre-installation

3.2.1 Planning the Installation Site

NB!
Before performing the installation it is important to plan the installation of the frequency converter. Neglecting this may result in extra work during and after
installation.

Select the best possible operation site by considering the following (see details on the following pages, and the respective Design Guides):

Ambient operating temperature

Installation method

How to cool the unit

Position of the frequency converter

Cable routing

Ensure the power source supplies the correct voltage and necessary current

Ensure that the motor current rating is within the maximum current from the frequency converter

Ensure that the drive is properly protected per local regulations.

3.2.2 Receiving the Frequency Converter

When receiving the frequency converter please make sure that the packaging is intact, and be aware of any damage that might have occurred to the unit during
transport. In case damage has occurred, contact immediately the shipping company to claim the damage.

3.2.3 Transportation and Unpacking

Before unpacking the frequency converter it is recommended that it is located as close as possible to the final installation site.
Remove the box and handle the frequency converter on the pallet, as long as possible.

NB!
The card board box cover contains a drilling master for the mounting holes in the Unit Size 4X. For the 5X size, please refer to section Mechanical Dimensions
later in this chapter.
