Mechanical installation
Contents of this chapter
This chapter describes the mechanical installation procedure of the drive.
Examining the installation site
Examine the installation site:
• The installation site is sufficiently ventilated or cooled to remove heat from the drive.
See the technical data.
• The ambient conditions of the drive meet the specifications. See the technical data.
• There is enough free space above the drive to enable cooling, maintenance, and
operation of the pressure relief (if present).
• The floor that the drive cabinet is installed on is of non-flammable material, as smooth
as possible, and strong enough to support the weight of the unit. Check the floor flatness
with a spirit level. The maximum allowed deviation from the surface level is 5 mm in
every 3 meters. Level the installation site, if necessary, as the cabinet is not equipped
with adjustable feet.
Necessary tools
The tools required for moving the unit to its final position, fastening it to the floor and wall
and tightening the connections are listed below:
• crane, fork-lift or pallet truck (check load capacity!), slate/spud bar, jack and rollers
• Pozidriv and Torx screwdrivers
• torque wrench
• set of wrenches or sockets.

Checking the delivery
The drive delivery contains:
• drive cabinet line-up
• optional modules (if ordered) installed onto the control unit(s) at the factory
• appropriate drive and optional module manuals
• delivery documents.
Check that there are no signs of damage. Before attempting installation and operation,
check the information on the type designation labels of the drive to verify that the delivery
is of the correct type.

Moving and unpacking the drive
Move the drive in its original packaging to the installation site as shown below to avoid
damaging the cabinet surfaces and door devices. When you are using a pallet truck, check
its load capacity before you move the drive.
The drive cabinet is to be moved in the upright position.
The center of gravity of the cabinet is high. Be therefore careful when moving the unit. Avoid
tilting.

￭Removing the transport package
Remove the transport package as follows:
1. Undo the screws that attach the wooden parts of the transport crate to each other.
2. Remove the wooden parts.
3. Remove the clamps with which the drive cabinet is mounted onto the transport pallet
by undoing the fastening screws.
4. Remove the plastic wrapping.

￭Moving the unpacked drive cabinet
Lifting the cabinet with a crane
Lift the drive cabinet by its designated lifting points. Depending on the size of the cabinet,
it has either bolt-on lifting eyes, or lifting bars with lifting holes.
Note:
The minimum allowed height of the lifting slings with IP54 units is 2 meters (6’7”).

Removing the transport package
Remove the transport package as follows:
1. Undo the screws that attach the wooden parts of the transport crate together.
2. Remove the wooden parts.
3. Remove the clamps with which the drive cabinet is mounted onto the transport pallet
by undoing the fastening screws.
4. Remove the plastic wrapping.
Moving the unpacked drive cabinet
Lifting the cabinet with a crane
Lift the drive cabinet using its lifting eyes. The lifting eyes can be removed after the cabinet
is in its final position, but their mounting holes must be blocked to retain the degree of
protection.
Note: The minimum allowed height of the lifting slings with IP54 units is 2 meters (6’7”).

Moving the cabinet on rollers
WARNING!
Do not move marine versions (option +C121) on rollers.
Lay the cabinet on the rollers and move it carefully until close to its final location. Remove
the rollers by lifting the unit with a crane, forklift, pallet truck or jack.
Moving the cabinet on its back
WARNING!
Do not transport the drive with an LCL or L filter on its back. It will damage the
filter.
Support the cabinet from below alongside the cubicle seams.

Final placement of the cabinet
Move the cabinet into its final position with a slate bar (spud bar). Place a piece of wood
between the edge of the cabinet and the bar to protect the cabinet frame.

Fastening the cabinet to the floor and wall or roof
￭General rules
• The drive must be installed in an upright vertical position.
• Leave 250 mm (9.85”) of free space above the cabinet for maintenance, and to allow
pressure relief operation.
•The cabinet can be installed with its back against a wall (a), or back-to-back with another
unit (b).
•Leave some space (w) at the side where the cabinet outmost hinges are to allow the
doors to open sufficiently. The doors must open 120° to allow supply or inverter module
replacement.

>250 mm (9.85”)
Note 1: Any height adjustment must be done before fastening the cabinet sections to the
floor or to each other. Height adjustment can be done by using metal shims between the
cabinet bottom and floor.
Note 2: Depending on the size of the cabinet, it has either bolt-on lifting eyes, or lifting bars
with lifting holes. If the cabinet is delivered with lifting bars, remove them. Store the bars for
decommissioning. Bolt-on lifting eyes need not be removed unless the holes are used for
fastening the cabinet. Plug any unused holes using the existing bolts and sealing rings
included. Tighten to 70 N·m (52 lbf·ft).

￭Fastening the cabinet (non-marine units)
Alternative 1 – Clamping
1. Insert the clamps (included) into the twin slots along the front and rear edges of the
cabinet frame body and fasten them to the floor with a bolt. The recommended maximum
distance between the clamps in the front edge is 800 mm (31.5”).
2. If floor mounting at the back is not possible, fasten the top of the cabinet to the wall with
L-brackets (not included in the delivery) bolted to the lifting eye/bar holes, and suitable
hardware.

Alternative 2 – Using the holes inside the cabinet
1. Fasten the cabinet to the floor through the bottom fastening holes with M10 to M12 (3/8”
to 1/2”) bolts. The recommended maximum distance between the front edge fastening
points is 800 mm (31.5”).
2. If the back fastening holes are not accessible, fasten the top of the cabinet to the wall
with L-brackets (not included in the delivery) bolted to the lifting eye/bar holes.

￭Fastening the cabinet (marine units)
See the dimension drawing delivered with the drive for details of the fastening points.
Fasten the cabinet to the floor and roof (wall) as follows:
1. Bolt the unit to the floor through the flat bars at the base of the cabinet using M10 or
M12 screws.
2. If there is not enough room behind the cabinet for installation, clamp (a) the rear edges
of the flat bars (c) to the floor. See the figure below.
3. Attach corner brackets (d) to the lifting eye holes. Fasten the corner brackets to the rear
wall and/or roof with suitable hardware such as U-brackets (e).

Joining cabinet sections together
Wide cabinet line-ups are delivered in multiple sections. The sections are to be joined on-site
using a 200 mm wide joining cubicle at the end of one section (a common motor terminal
cubicle can also act as a joining cubicle). The screws required for the joining are enclosed
in a plastic bag inside the cabinet. The threaded bushings are already mounted on the
cabinet posts.
1. Fasten the first section to the floor.
2. Remove any plates covering the rear post of the joining cubicle.
3. Slide Axilock connectors onto the coolant pipes at the joint.
4. Align the two sections.
The coolant pipe ends must be aligned as shown.

5. Center the Axilock connectors onto the gaps between coolant pipe ends. Tighten the
connector screws to the torque indicated on the connector label.
6. Fasten the front and rear posts of the joining cubicle to the posts of the other section
with 14 screws (7 per post). Tighten the screws to 5 N·m (3.7 lbf·ft).
7. Fasten the second section to the floor.
