2-2 Installation Method

¬Tightly fasten the product in the upright position on a strong structure using four bolts (M4) with the characters AF-300C11 facing the front. Be sure not

to turn the product upside down, and install it on a

horizontal surface.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(10 cm)

- Heat is generated while the drive is operating, so the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

gaps shown in Figure 2-2-1 are necessary for the

! WARNING

Install this product

on a nonflammable material such as metal,

 

otherwise fire could occur.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

¯When installing this product in a control panel, carefully consider the ventilation to prevent the am- bient temperature of the drive from exceeding the specified value. Do not install it in a hermetically sealed box from which heat is not radiated fully.
