(such as the EMC Directive and possibly other directives according to the so-called new procedure). NXL frequency converters carry the CE label as a proof of compliance with the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and the Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC).

¦ RECEIPT OF DELIVERY NXL frequency converters have undergone scrupulous tests and quality checks at the factory before they are delivered to the customer. However, after unpacking the product, check that no signs of transport damages are to be found on the product and that the delivery is complete (compare the type designation of the product to the code below.
In normal conditions, NXL frequency converters are maintenance-free. However, we recommend to clean the heatsink (using e.g. a small brush) whenever necessary. Most NXL drives are equipped with a cooling fan, which can easily be changed if necessary. Receipt of delivery –40…+70...
Neither can the manufacturer be held responsible for consequential damages. Honeywell's time of warranty is 30 months from the delivery or 24 months from the commissioning whichever expires first. The local distributor may grant a warranty time different from the above. This warranty time shall be specified in the distributor's sales and warranty terms.
TECHNICAL DATA Introduction Honeywell NXL is a compact frequency converter with the output ranging from 250 W to 30 kW. The Motor and Application Control Block is based on microprocessor software. The microprocessor controls the motor basing on the information it receives through measurements, parameter settings, control I/O and control keypad.
