1.5.1 Safety First
CAUTION - RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Always disconnect supply volt-
age before servicing the F5 Elevator Drive.
After disconnecting the supply voltage, always wait 5 minutes before at-
tempting to change the wiring. The internal DC BUS capacitors must dis-
charge.
1.5.2 Voltage Supply
Pay attention to the supply voltage and be sure the supply voltage matches
that of the inverter. A 230V unit can be supplied with voltage in the range
180 to 260VAC +/-0%, for a 460V unit the range is 305 to 500VAC +/- 0%,
48Hz to 62 Hz.
All 240V models are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not
more than ___ kA rms symmetrical amperes, 240 volts maximum when
protected by class ___ fuses rated ___ Amperes as speci ed in table 1.5.4.1
or when protected by a circuit breaker having an interrupt rating not less than
___ kA rms symmetrical amperes, 240V maximum, rated ___ amperes as
speci ed in table 1.5.4.1.
All 480V models are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering not
more than ___ kA rms symmetrical amperes, 480 volts maximum when
protected by class ___ fuses rated ___ Amperes as speci ed in table 1.5.4.2
or when protected by a circuit breaker having an interrupt rating not less than
___ kA rms symmetrical amperes, 480V maximum, rated ___ amperes as
speci ed in table 1.5.4.2.
1.4.4 Ambient Conditions
Maximum Surrounding Air Temperature 45°C! The operating temperature
range of the unit is -10°C to + 45°C (14°F to +113°F). Operation outside of
this temperature range can lead to shut down of the inverter.
The unit can be stored (power off) in the temperature range -25°C to 70°C
(-13°F to +158°F).
The power rating of the inverter must be derated for operation above 3,300
ft (1000 m). Reduce the rated power 1% for each additional 330 ft (100 m).
The maximum elevation for operation is 6,560 ft (2000 m).
The relative humidity shall be limited to 95% without condensation.
