Installation Guidelines

• Mounting: Mount the drive vertically on a flat, non-combustible surface. Maintain adequate clearance above and below the unit for airflow to ensure proper cooling.
• Environmental: Protect the unit from dust, moisture, and corrosive vapors. Operating ambient temperatures must stay within the specified range to prevent thermal derating.
• Wiring: Connect the three-phase power supply to the input terminals and the motor to the output terminals. Keep control signal wiring physically separate from power cabling to minimize electrical noise.
• Grounding: Secure a solid connection to the system protective earth (PE) terminal to ensure operator safety and EMC performance.
• Commissioning: Use the drive's built-in HMI to input motor parameters (such as nominal current and frequency) before initial startup to ensure accurate control.
