Installation Guidelines
Placement: The module must be installed in close proximity to the SIMODRIVE 611 drive line-up to minimize impedance on the DC link connection.
Mounting: Use the integrated mounting points to secure the module vertically in the control cabinet, ensuring adequate clearance for thermal dissipation.
Interconnection: Ensure all DC link busbar connections are tightened to the torque specifications provided in the SIMODRIVE 611 system manual to prevent arcing and high-resistance joints.
Safety: Always discharge the DC link fully before handling or maintaining the capacitor module, as stored energy can pose a significant electrical shock hazard.
