If the drive has been used at high load levels for a period of time, the heatsink can reach
temperatures in excess of 70°C (158°F). Human contact with the heatsink should be
prevented.
WARNING
In order to achieve IP54 rating (NEMA 12) for through-panel mounting, an IP54 insert must
be installed (size 1 and 2). See section 10.7 on page 109. Derating applies when the IP54
insert is installed. Additionally, the gasket provided should be installed between the drive
and the backplate to ensure a good seal for the enclosure. If the heatsink mounted braking
resistor is to be used with the drive through-panel mounted, refer to the
Braking Resistor
Installation Sheet
supplied with the resistor prior to mounting the drive. For further
information refer to the
Unidrive SP User Guide on the CD Rom supplied with the drive.
NOTE
Ingress protective labels
The ingress protective labels (shown in Figure 3-3 above) should remain in place while the
drive is mounted, and until all the electrical wires have been connected. The labels should
be removed before first power up.
