Chapter 3 Mounting the Kinetix 5500 Drive System
Mount Your Kinetix 5500
Drive
This procedure assumes you have prepared your panel and understand how to
bond your system. For installation instructions regarding other equipment and
accessories, refer to the instructions that came with those products.
Follow these steps to mount your Kinetix 5500 drives to the panel.
1. Lay out the hole pattern for each Kinetix 5500 drive in the enclosure.
Refer to Establishing Noise Zones
on page 39 for panel layout
recommendations.
2. Drill holes in the panel for mounting your drive system.
Hole patterns, by frame size, are shown in Drilling Hole Patterns
beginning on page 49
.
3. Loosely attach the mounting hardware to the panel.
The recommended mounting hardware is M4 (#8-32) steel bolts. Observe
bonding techniques as described in Bonding Modules
on page 36.
4. Attach the leftmost drive to the cabinet panel.
5. Attach additional drives (if any) just to the right of the previous drive by
using the same method, but also making sure the zero-stack tabs and
cutouts are engaged.
Zero-stack mounting is required based on configuration, refer to the Zero-
stack Tab and Cutout Example on page 46.
6. Tighten all mounting fasteners.
Apply 2.0 N•m (17.7 lb•in) maximum torque to each fastener.
To improve the bond between the Kinetix 5500 drive and subpanel,
construct your subpanel out of zinc plated (paint-free) steel.
