Mount and Connect the IDM Unit
To install an IDM unit, follow these procedures and recommendations.
1. Allow sufficient clearance around the IDM unit for it to stay within its specified
operating temperature range.
•
Refer to Specifications on page 21 for the operating temperature range and
clearances.
•
Obtain the specified thermal rating by mounting the IDM unit on a surface with
heat dissipation equivalent to a 304.8 x 304.8 x 12.7 mm (12 x 12 x 0.5 in.)
aluminum heatsink.
•
Do not install the IDM unit in an area with restricted airflow, and keep other heat
producing devices away from the IDM unit.
2. Refer to Load Force Ratings on page 13 to determine the radial and axial shaft load
limitations of the unit.
3. If sufficient mounting clearance is provided, rotate the hybrid cable connectors into
position prior to installing. If the mounting clearance is restricted, rotate after installing.
ATTENTION: The IDM unit connects to an IDM power interface module (IPIM) that stores residual
voltage for an extended period of time. Do not connect an IDM to an IPIM module immediately after
removing power to the IPIM module. Allow the residual power stored in the IPIM module to dissipate
for 60 seconds after power is removed from the IDM system. This extended discharge period is needed
for the system power to return to a nominal voltage that is acceptable for reconfiguration of the
system.
ATTENTION: Integrated drive-motor units are not intended for direct connection to an AC power line.
The IDM unit is designed for connection to an IPIM module that controls the application of power.
ATTENTION: To avoid damage to the bearings and feedback device, do not apply sharp impact to the
shaft during the installation or removal of couplings, pulleys, or shaft key.
BURN HAZARD: Outer surfaces of the IDM unit can reach high temperatures, 125 °C
(275 °F), during operation. Take precautions to prevent accidental contact with hot surfaces
on the IDM unit. Consider the surface temperature of the equipment when selecting
equipment and cables for connection.
ATTENTION: Connectors are designed to be rotated into a fixed position during installation
and remain in that position without further adjustment. Strictly limit the applied forces and
the number of times the connector is rotated to make sure that connectors meet the
specified IP ratings. Apply force to only the connector and cable plug. Do not apply force to
the cable extending from the cable plug. Do not use tools, for example pliers or vise-grips, to
assist with the rotation of the connector.
