3 About this Option

The installation of the External Heatsink Mounting Kit to V1000 or J1000 AC drives allows the drive heatsink, a major heat

generating component of the drive, to protrude to the exterior of a customer supplied enclosure. Large amounts of heat that

would normally be trapped inside the enclosure, are dissipated outside the enclosure, thus facilitating a more compact and less

costly enclosure selection. Mounting attachments to secure the drive within a panel cutout are supplied. A convective back

plate, mounted to the backside of the heatsink, is supplied with certain kits to improve natural convection air flow over the

heatsink.

This option may be used when the installation environment conforms to the specifications in Table 1.

Installation Environment

Install the drive in an environment matching these specifications to help prolong the optimum performance life of the drive.

Installation Area Indoors

Ambient Temperature

IP20/NEMA Type 1 enclosure: -10 °C to +40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F)

IP20/IP00 Open-Chassis enclosure: -10 °C to +50 °C (14 °F to 122 °F)

Finless Type: IP20/IP00 enclosure: -10 °C to +50 °C (14 °F to 122 °F)

NEMA Type 4X/IP66 enclosure: -10 °C to +40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F)

Drive reliability improves in environments without wide temperature fluctuations.

When using an enclosure panel, install a cooling fan or air conditioner in the area to ensure that the air temperature inside

the enclosure does not exceed the specified levels.

Do not allow ice to develop on the drive.

Humidity 95% RH or less and free of condensation

Storage Temperature -20 °C to +60 °C (-4 °F to +104 °F)

Surrounding Area

Install the drive in an area free from:

• oil mist and dust

• metal shavings, oil, water or other foreign materials

• radioactive materials

• combustible materials (e.g., wood)

• harmful gases and liquids

• excessive vibration

• chlorides

• direct sunlight

Altitude
