2 Installation
2.1 Safety Information
NOTICE
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
Only qualified, Danfoss authorized personnel are allowed to install the parts described in these installation instructions.
Disassembly and reassembly of the frequency converter must be done in accordance with the service guide.
Use the standard fastener torque values from the service guide, unless the torque value is specified in these instructions.
WARNING
DISCHARGE TIME (40 MINUTES)
The frequency converter contains DC-link capacitors, which can remain charged even when the frequency converter is not pow-
ered. High voltage can be present even when the warning LED indicator lights are off. Failure to wait 40 minutes after power has
been removed before performing service or repair work can result in death or serious injury.
Stop the motor.
Disconnect AC mains and remote DC-link power supplies, including battery back-ups, UPS, and DC-link connections to other
frequency converters.
Disconnect or lock the motor.
Disconnect any brake option.
Disconnect any DC connector option.
Wait 40 minutes for the DC-link capacitors to discharge fully.
Before performing any service or repair work, measure the voltage level to verify that the capacitors are fully discharged.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
The frequency converter contains dangerous voltages when connected to mains voltage. Improper installation, and installing or
servicing with power connected, can cause death, serious injury, or equipment failure.
Only use qualified electricians for the installation.
Disconnect the frequency converter from all power sources before installation or service.
Treat the frequency converter as live whenever the mains voltage is connected.
Follow the guidelines in these instructions and local electrical safety codes.
NOTICE
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE
Electrostatic discharge can damage components.
Ensure electrostatic discharge before touching internal frequency converter components, for example by touching a groun-
ded, conductive surface or by wearing a grounded armband.

2.3 Creating Vent Openings in the Mounting Plate
To create upper and lower vent openings in the mounting plate, use the following steps. Use the dimensions in Illustration 3 for 600
mm (24 in) cabinets, and Illustration 4 for 800 mm (32 in) cabinets.
Procedure
Drill 6 mounting holes in the back of the frequency converter using the dimensions in the template.
Insert 6 M10 pem self-clinching nuts (not supplied) in the mounting holes.
Cut out the upper and lower vent openings in the mounting plate using the dimensions in the template.
The openings must match the frequency converter vent openings.
Drill 6 screw holes around each vent opening using the dimensions in the template.
The holes must match the holes in the frequency converter and the inner flange of the back ducts.

2.7 Mounting the Frequency Converter
To install the mounting plate and frequency converter in the cabinet, use the following steps. Refer to Illustration 9.
Procedure
Remove the paper backing from both 6-hole gaskets, exposing the adhesive.
Adhere 1 gasket around the vent opening on each side of the mounting plate.
Position the mounting plate in the Rittal cabinet, aligning the top mounting plate hole with the 5th hole from the top of the
cabinet rails.
Check that the pem nuts face the back of the cabinet.
Fasten the mounting plate to the cabinet rails with 14 M5x10 thread-forming screws.
Loosely fasten 3 M10 screws (not supplied) into the pem nuts at the lower end of the mounting plate.
Check that the screws are secure. The base of the frequency converter rests on the screws.
Slightly lean the top of the frequency converter forward and set the cutouts in the base onto the 3 screws.
Slowly push the top of the frequency converter back against the mounting plate until the top 3 pem nuts line up with the
holes in the frequency converter.
Secure the top of the frequency converter using 3 M10 screws.
Torque the 6 M10 screws to 19 Nm (170 in-lb).
