Mounting the Drive, Grounding, and

Finding Wire Routing Locations

This chapter shows how to mount the drive and properly ground it. Also shown are the

entry areas where wiring is to be routed in and out of the drive.

4.1 Mounting the Drive

The GV3000/SE Bookshelf drive is provided in an IP20 enclosure and is intended for

use inside a larger, user-supplied enclosure.

In order to maintain a flat mounting surface and to ensure that bolt tightness is

maintained, use washers under the bolt heads. Use M6 (1/4”) mounting bolts and

washers.

2 to 30 Amp Drives

Refer to figure 3.1 and table 3.2 in chapter 3 for drive mounting dimensions. Attach the

drive to the vertical surface selected using the two (2) mounting brackets provided.

The brackets slide into the wide channel of the aluminum heat sink on the back of the

drive. Slide one bracket into the top of the channel and the other bracket into the

bottom of the channel. Note that the upper mounting bracket is not fixed and,

therefore, cannot support the unit alone.

43 Amp Drives

Refer to figure 3.2 and table 3.3 in chapter 3 for drive mounting dimensions. Attach the

drive to the vertical surface selected using the built-in mounting brackets.

4.1.1 Verifying the Drive’s Watts Loss Rating

When mounting the drive inside of another enclosure, you should determine the watts

loss rating of the drive from table 2.1. This table lists the typical full load power loss

watts value under all operating carrier frequencies. Ensure that the enclosure is

adequately ventilated with 0° to 40°C ambient air based on the drive’s watts loss

rating.
