■ Calorific values of the inverter and the required ventilation
The energy loss when the inverter converts power from AC to DC and then back to AC is a bout 5%. In order to
suppress the rise in temperature inside the cabinet when this loss be comes heat loss, the interior of the cabi net must
be ventilated and cooled.
The amount of forced air-cooling ventilation required and the necessar y heat exchange surface area when operati ng
in a sealed cabinet according to motor capacity are as follows.

Note1: The heat loss for the optional external devices (input reactor, DC react or, radio noise reduction filters, etc.) is
not included in the calorific values in the table. With the exception of inverters LGHQWLILHG for motors with
capacities of 355kW and more, in which case the calorific value of th e DC reactor is included.
Note2: Each calorific value in the table refers to the quantity of heat that an inverter produces when it is operate d
continuously at the factory default EH (carrier frequency) under a l oad factor of 100%.
Note3: This value is power dissipated inside the enclosure ZKHQ using heatsink RXWWKHEDFNIODQJHPRXQW option.
