Operating Conditions Ambient Temperature Limits
IP20 / UL Open Type
When the AC motor drive is operating at the rated current, the ambient
temperature must be between -20
– +50°C. When the temperature is over
50°C, for every increase by 1°C, decrease the rated current 2.5%. The
maximum allowable temperature is 60°C.
NEMA1 / UL Type 1
When the AC motor drive is operating at the rated current, the ambient
temperature must be between -20
– +40°C. When the temperature is over
40°C, for every increase by 1°C, decrease the rated current 2.5%. The
maximum allowable temperature is 60°C.
High Altitude
If the AC motor drive is installed at an altitude of 0–1000 m, follow normal
operation restrictions. If it is installed at an altitude of 1000–2000 m, decrease
the rated current by 1% or lower the temperature 0.5°C for every 100 m
increase in altitude. The maximum altitude for corner grounded is 2000 m.
Contact Delta for more information if you need to use this motor drive at an
altitude of 2000 m or higher.
