Q9 Plus ASD Installation and Operation Manual
Not all ASDs are equipped with internal primary power input fuses (HP dependent). When connecting
two or more drives that have no internal fuse to the same power line as shown in
Figure 1
, it will be
necessary to select a circuit-breaking configuration that will ensure that if a short circuit occurs in ASD
1, only MCCB2 trips — not MCCB1. If it is not feasible to use this configuration, insert a fuse between
MCCB2 and ASD 1.
Mounting the ASD
— The following thermal specifications apply to the 230- and 460-volt ASDs ONLY —
Install the unit securely in a well-ventilated area that is out of direct sunlight.
The process of converting AC to DC and then back to AC produces heat. During normal ASD
operation, up to 5% of the input energy to the ASD may be dissipated as heat. If installing the ASD in a
cabinet, ensure that there is adequate ventilation.
DO NOT
operate the ASD with the enclosure door open.
The ambient operating temperature rating of the
Q9 Plus ASD
is 14° to 104° F (-10° to 40° C).
When installing multiple ASDs horizontally, Toshiba recommends at least 5 cm of space between
adjacent units. However, horizontally mounted ASDs may be installed side-by-side with no space in
between the adjacent units if the top cover is removed from each ASD.
For 150 HP ASDs and above, a minimum of 50 cm of space is required above and below adjacent units
and any obstruction. This space is the recommended minimum space requirement for the ASD and
ensures that adequate ventilation is provided for each unit. More space will provide a better
environment for cooling (see the section titled
Part Numbering Convention and Enclosure Dimensions
on pg. 257
for additional information on mounting space requirements).
Note:
Ensure that the ventilation openings are not obstructed.
