7 INSTALLATION
WARNING!
Drives must NOT be installed where subjected to adverse
environmental conditions! Drives must not be installed where
subjected to combustible, oily, or hazardous vapors or dust;
excessive moisture or dirt; strong vibration; excessive ambient
temperatures. Consult Lenze AC Tech for more information on the
suitability of a drive to a particular environment.
The drive should be mounted on a smooth vertical surface capable of safely supporting
the unit without vibrating. The LCD display has an optimum field of view, this should be
considered when determining the mounting position.
Maintain a minimum spacing around the drive as listed herein.

All drive models MUST be mounted in a vertical position for proper heatsink cooling.
Fans or blowers should be used to insure proper cooling in tight quarters. Do not mount
drives above other drives or heat producing equipment that would impede the cooling of
the drive. Note the ambient operating temperature ratings for each drive model.
If it is necessary to drill or cut the drive enclosure or panel, extreme care must be taken
to avoid damaging drive components or contaminating the drive with metal fragments
(which cause shorting of electrical circuits). Cover drive components with a clean
cloth to keep out metal chips and other debris. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean drive
components after drilling, even if chips do not appear to be present. Do not attempt to
use positive air pressure to blow chips out of drive, as this tends to lodge debris under
electronic components. Contaminating the drive with metal chips can cause drive failure
and will void the warranty.
