This guide tells you briefly how to install the drive module into a 600 mm wide cabinet.
For installation examples in different cabinets and more detailed instructions, engineering
guide lines, technical data and complete safety instructions, see the hardware manual
(www.abb.com/drives: Select Document Library and search for document number
3AXD50000048677 [English]).
Obey the safety instructions
See figure A on page 15. If you ignore these instructions, injury or death, or damage to the
equipment can occur.
WARNING! Handle the drive module carefully. Open the support legs by pressing
each leg a little down and turning it aside (1, 2).
Do not tilt the drive module. It is heavy and its center of gravity is high. The
module will overturn from a sideways tilt of 5 degrees. Do not leave the module
unattended on a sloping floor.
To prevent the drive module from falling, attach its top lifting lugs with chains to the cabinet
frame before you push the module into the cabinet. Work carefully preferably with help
from another person. Keep a constant pressure with one foot on the base of the module to
prevent the module from falling on its back.
WARNING! If you are not a qualified electrician, do not do installation or
maintenance work. Go through these steps before you begin any installation or
maintenance work.
1. Clearly identify the work location.
2. Disconnect all possible voltage sources.
•Open the main disconnector of the drive.
•Open the disconnector of the supply transformer as the main disconnector of the
drive does not remove the voltage from the input busbars of the drive.
•Make sure that reconnection is not possible. Lock the disconnectors to open
position and attach a warning notice to them.
•Disconnect any external power sources from the control circuits before you do
work on the control cables.
•After you disconnect the drive, always wait for 5 minutes to let the intermediate
circuit capacitors discharge before you continue.
3. Protect any other energized parts in the work location against contact.
4. Take special precautions when close to bare conductors.
