Depending on the conditions in which the drive is to be used, its installation will require certain precautions and the use of appropriate accessories.

Install the unit vertically:

• Avoid placing it close to heating elements

• Leave sufficient free space to ensure that the air required for cooling purposes can circulate from the bottom to the top of the unit.

By removing the protective blanking cover from the top of the drive, the degree of protection for the drive becomes IP 20.

The protective blanking cover may vary according to the drive model (refer to the user guide).

The protective blanking cover must be removed from ATV 71P•••N4Z drives when they are mounted in a dust and damp proof enclosure.

To ensure proper air circulation in the drive:

• Fit ventilation grilles.

• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation. If there is not, install a forced ventilation unit with a filter. The openings and/or fans must provide a flow rate at least equal to that of the drive fans (refer to the product characteristics).

• Use special filters with IP 54 protection.

• Remove the blanking cover from the top of the drive.

The drive must be mounted in a dust and damp proof enclosure in certain environmental conditions: dust, corrosive gases, high humidity with risk of condensation and dripping water, splashing liquid, etc.

This enables the drive to be used in an enclosure where the maximum internal temperature reaches 50°C.
