hazard of enclosure collapse
Check that the side, the door or the roof of the enclosure
can support the weight of the cooling unit. Install supports if necessary.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

-
Check that the external environment does not show any concentration of solid contaminants and/or excessive amounts of aggressive chemicals, according to IEC 62208. If there is a concentration of solid contaminants and/or excessive amounts of aggressive chemicals, use the air inlet protection filters.
-
Check that the air flow inlet and outlet are not blocked by walls or objects that are too close.
-
Maintain at least 1 m (3.26 ft) between the cooling unit and walls or adjacent enclosures.
-
Maintain at least 1.5 m (4.92 ft) between the cooling unit and ceiling.
-
Maintain at least 100 mm (3.93 in) between the cooling unit and any device mounted on the inside of the enclosure.
-
-
Before drilling or cutting the enclosure, check that the fasteners and coupling do not impede or interfere with the switch gear located on the enclosure.
-
Install the cooling unit with the air intake from the enclosure located at the highest possible point.
-
For indoor cooling units, check that the ambient temperature in the area of the enclosure installation is not above 55 °C (131 ºF) or below 5 ºC (41 ºF).
For outdoor cooling units, check that the ambient temperature in the area of the enclosure installation is not above 55 °C (131 ºF) or below -20 °C (-4 °F). In any case, respect the ambient temperature specified in the technical data.
For indoor and the outdoor cooling units, check that the relative humidity does not exceed +95 %.
-
Place the cooling unit away from sources of heat and hot airflows.
-
Check that the sealing of the enclosure is IP55 or higher for side-mounted cooling units and IP54 or higher for roof-mounted cooling units to avoid excessive condensation.
-
Seal properly the cable holes and other openings in the enclosure, especially the floor and cable entrances.
-
Install the cooling unit in the correct position. The maximum deviation from the perpendicular is 2°.
-
Any modifications to the cooling unit that are not listed in this guide or in other Schneider Electric documentation are prohibited.
