Mechanical Installation
This chapter provides information on mounting a PowerFlex Drive Package for
Fan and Pump Applications.
Mounting Considerations Environment
Before deciding on an installation site, verify that the PowerFlex Drive Packages
can be kept clean, cool and dry. The drives should be kept away from oil, coolants
or other airborne contaminants.
Maximum Surrounding Air Temperature
PowerFlex Drive Packages for Fan and Pump Applications are designed to
operate at 0…40 °C (32…104 °F) surrounding air temperature.
Minimum Mounting Clearances
Be sure there is adequate clearance for air circulation around the drive. For best
air movement, do not mount drives directly above each other. Note that no
devices are to be mounted behind the drive. This area must be kept clear of all
control and power wiring.
