3 Mechanical Installation3.1 Pre-installation3.1.1 Planning the Installation SiteNOTICEDue to the size and clearance requirements of the activefilter, it is important to pre-plan installation. Failure todo so may result in additional work during and afterinstallation.Select the best possible operation site by consideringthe following:• Ambient temperature conditions.• Altitude at installation point.• Installation and compensation method.• Cooling.• Position of the active filter.• CT installation point and possibility to reuseexisting CTs.• Cable routing and EMI conditions.• Ensure the power source supplies the correctvoltage and frequency.• If the unit is without built-in fuses, ensure thatthe external fuses are rated correctly.3.1.2 Receiving the Active FilterWhen receiving the unit, ensure that the packaging isintact, and note any damage that may have occurredduring transport. In case of damage, immediately contactthe shipping company to claim the damage.NOTICEDamaged packaging can indicate rough transportationwhich may have caused interior failures in the unit.Claim damages even if the exterior of the unit seemsintact.3.1.3 Transportation and UnpackingPlace the active filter as close as possible to its final instal-lation site before unpacking it. Keep the filter on the palletand boxed as long as possible to avoid damage.3.1.4 LiftingAlways lift the unit in the dedicated lifting eyes. Use a barto avoid bending the lifting holes.130BB642.10Illustration 3.1 Recommended Lifting Method for AAF 006,Enclosure Sizes D14 and E1NOTICEThe lifting bar must be able to handle the weight of theunit. See chapter 3.1.5 Mechanical Dimensions forweights. Maximum diameter for the bar is 25 mm (1inch). The angle from the top of the unit to the liftingcable should be > 60°.NOTICEThe plinth is required to allow airflow to the unit toprovide proper cooling.Mechanical Installation Operating Instructions8 Danfoss A/S © 09/2014 All rights reserved.
