In order to ensure reliable drive overloadprotection, set parameters L8-12 and L8-35 according to the installation conditions.Note: To install a heatsink on the outside of a panel, design the panel to keep the air temperature inside the panel within 10 °C (18 °F)[5 °C (9 °F) for 2A0273 and 4A0124] of the outside air temperature.n Parameter SettingsNo. Name Description Range Def.L8-12 AmbientTemperature Setting Adjust the drive overload (oL2) protection level when the drive is installedin an environment that exceeds its ambient temperature rating. 40 to 60 40 °CL8-35 Installation MethodSelection0: IP00/Open-Chassis Enclosure2: IP20/NEMA 1, UL Type 1 Enclosure3: External Heatsink Installation 0, 2, 3 2IP00/Open-Chassis EnclosureDrive operation between -10 °C and +50 °C (14 and 122 °F) allows 100% continuous current without derating.
