INVERTER COMPONENTS AND COOLING

Refer to Figure 2-2 for identification and location of
inverter components. There are two types of cooling
methods depending on the installation method, “cooled
inside control enclosure’ and

outside control

enclosure’ (see Figure 2-3).

lnverters rated 200,250, and 300 HP can be mounted

“Cooled Inside Control Enclosure”. However, a

mounting pedastal will need to be constructed that

can support the weight of the inverter.

This pedastal should mount to the bottom of the

inverter.

NOTE:

are shipped

the

mounted

for ‘cooling inside

enclosure’. If

outside

enclosure” is required,

adapter must be

repositioned (see Figure 2-3).

The mounting adapter, positioned at either the top or

bottom of the enclosure, must be located in accordance
with the installation/cooling method.

With the “cooled outside the enclosure” method, the
cooling fan is mounted externally and approximately
60% of the total heat generated by the inverter is

discharged outside the unit.

NOTE:

When

cooling fan is

control enclosure, must be periodically cleaned

(especially in

environments).
