Totally enclosed with no air flow (< 2 m/s) over the drive Trate = Tint + 5 °C2. Totally enclosed with air flow (> 2 m/s) over the drive Trate = TintWhere:Text = Temperature outside the cabinetTint = Temperature inside the cabinetTrate = Temperature used to select current rating from tables in Chapter 6 Technical data on page 983.12 Drive cooling fan operationThe drive is ventilated by an internally mounted fan(s).The drive cooling fan on all sizes is variable speed. The drive controls the speed at which the fan runs based on the drive's thermal model system.The maximum speed at which the fan operates can be limited in Pr 06.045. This could incur an output current derating.
