Use the overall calculated power consumption (W) to calculate the heat
generation and temperature rise inside the enclosure.
The following equation approximately calculates the temperature rise in the
enclosure:
T = ( C)

W : W is the overall power consumption of the motion controller (calculated
above)
A : internal surface area of the enclosure (m

)
U : if a fan is used to make enclosure temperature uniform ............6
if air is not circulated inside the enclosure..................................4
CAUTION
If the enclosure temperature rises above the prescribed range, a heat exchanger should be
attached to the enclosure to lower the temperature.
Ventilation of the enclosure with a fan can result in dust problems with the motion controller
because of the dust which is introduced with the ambient air.
