Data for operation and environment

Notice

Shorter service life due to high temperatures

Temperatures above 45 °C and encapsulated installation can shorten the service life of the product.

  • Operate the economy variable frequency drive AF1000 only under the operating and environmental conditions specified in this chapter

Notice

Damage caused by conductive dusts

Penetration or deposition of conductive dust can lead to short circuits, malfunctions, fire or explosion hazards.

  • Do not use in environments with conductive dusts

Beckhoff products are designed for operation under certain environmental conditions, which vary according to the product. The following specifications must be observed for operation and environment in order to achieve the optimum service life of the products.
