Rockwell Automation 7000A PowerFlex Medium Voltage AC Drive (A Frame) - ForGe Control (PanelView 550) - Manual (Page 24)

2-2 Drive Installation
7000A-UM151D-EN-P – March 2013 7000 “A” Frame
Siting of the Drive Site Considerations
The standard environment in which the equipment is designed to
operate is:
• Elevation above sea level less than 1000 meters (3250 feet)
• Ambient air temperature between 0°C (32°F) and 40°C (104°F)
• Relative humidity of the air not to exceed 95% non-condensing
For the equipment to operate in conditions other than those specified
consult the local Rockwell Automation Sales office.
The equipment requires the following site conditions:
(A) Indoor installation only, no dripping water or other fluids
(B) Clean air for cooling requirements
(C) Level floor for anchoring the equipment. Refer to dimension
drawings for the location of the anchoring points.
(D) The room in which the equipment is located must allow for full
opening of the doors of the equipment, typically 1200 mm
(48 inches). Also, allowances have to be made for clearance
for fan removal. This fan allowance must be greater than 700
mm (27.5 inches) above the drive.
or
Dimension drawings can be obtained by contacting the local
Rockwell Automation Sales office. The equipment does not
require rear access for servicing.
(E)
Allowance must be made for the stream of cooling air which
exits the drive at the top. The flow of cooling air into and out
the drive must be kept clear and uninhibited.
(F) The room in which the equipment is located must be large
enough to accommodate the thermal losses of the equipment
since air conditioning may be required; the ambient
temperature must not exceed that for which the equipment is
rated. The heat created by the drive is directly proportional to
the power of the motor being driven and the efficiency of
equipment within the room. If thermal load data is required
contact the Rockwell Automation Sales office.
(G) The area in which the drive is located should be free of radio
frequency interference such as encountered with some welding
units. This may cause erroneous fault conditions and shut
down the drive.
