2. Installation
2.1 Installation Precautions
Installation Near Sources of Heat
Implement measures to prevent temperature increases caused by external heat sources so that the ambient temperature of the Drive is within the specified limits.
Installation Near Sources of Vibration
Install a vibration absorber on the installation surface of the Drive so that the Drive will not be subjected to vibration.
Other Precautions
Never install the Drive in a location subject to high temperatures, high humidity, water drops, cutting oil, excessive dust, excessive dirt, excessive iron powder, corrosive gasses, or radioactivity.
2.2 Mounting Types and Orientation
The Drives are based mounted and should be fitted to a non-painted metal surface. Mount the Drive
vertically, as is shown in Figure 2-1.
Mount the Drives so that the Display Panel is facing toward the operator. Prepare two or three mounting holes for the Drive and mount it securely in the mounting holes (The number of mounting holes depends on the size of the Drive).
Figure 2-1 Base-mounted diagram
2.3 Mounting Hole Dimensions
Use all mounting holes to securely mount the Drive to the mounting surface. To mount the Drive, use a screwdriver that is longer than the depth of the Drive.

NOTE
The ED3L allows close mounting with a distance of 1mm between two adjacent drives.
The ED3L 50D and 75D drives do not allow close mounting due to wiring, and the distance between drives is to be confirmed upon assembly of the cable, for which 80mm is the recommended
