About the 620L00154000010USENW0000000B0000000
The Eurotherm 620L00154000010USENW0000000B0000000 enables speed control of induction motors with an encoder. It also provides for a co-processor and ports for a fibre optic communications network.
When the motor is running during operation the Eurotherm 620L00154000010USENW0000000B0000000 gives off heat. If the device cannot keep cool, an overheat condition might occur which will shutdown the device, or damage might occur to components. Planning the ventilation is an important factor when planning the installation.
The device is designed so that cool air enters from the bottom and hot air is vented through the top. Cables or cable bundles cannot block the flow of air at the bottom or the top. Also if devices are on either side of the device, allow for at least 4 inches space. If devices are situated above or below the device, allow at least 7 inches.
Make sure the wall on which the 620L00154000010USENW0000000B0000000 is mounted stays cool. You might find that a device on the other side of the wall is a heat source and keeps the 620L00154000010USENW0000000B0000000 running too hot. You might be able to move the other device or add venting to keep the other device cooler.
In some situations the 620L00154000010USENW0000000B0000000 is installed in an enclosed space with no free flow of air. In that case the installation must provide a vent hood, conditioned air, or other means of ventilation.
You might have several devices installed on a wall with heat generated by all the devices. In that case, allow extra space between devices and consider that the more devices that are installed, the more space you should allow.
