Before performing the installation it is important to plan the installation of the frequency converter. Neglecting this may result in extra work during and after

installation.

Select the best possible operation site by considering the following (see details on the following pages, and the respective Design Guides):

•

Ambient operating temperature

•

Installation method

•

How to cool the unit

•

Position of the frequency converter

•

Cable routing

•

Ensure the power source supplies the correct voltage and necessary current

•

Ensure that the motor current rating is within the maximum current from the frequency converter

•

Ensure that the drive is properly protected per local regulations.

6.1.2 Receiving the Frequency Converter

When receiving the frequency converter please make sure that the packaging is intact, and be aware of any damage that might have occurred to the unit during

transport. In case damage has occurred, contact immediately the shipping company to claim the damage.

6.1.3 Transportation and Unpacking

Before unpacking the frequency converter it is recommended that it is located as close as possible to the final installation site.

Remove the box and handle the frequency converter on the pallet, as long as possible.
