Installation and Connection

3. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
This chapter describes the procedures for the electrical and mechanical installation of the Soft-
Starter SSW-08. The guidelines and suggestions must be followed for the correct operation of
the Soft-Starter SSW-08.

3.1 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

3.1.1 Environmental Conditions

3
The location of the Soft-Starters SSW-08 is an important factor to assure the correct operation
and high product reliability.
Avoid:
Direct exposure to sunlight, rain, high moisture and sea air ;
„
Exposure to explosive or corrosive gases and liquids;
„
Exposure to excessive vibration, dust or any metallic and/or oil particles in the air.
„
Allowed Environmental Conditions:
Surrounding air Temperature: 0 ºC to 55 ºC (32 ºF to 131 ºF) - nominal conditions.
„
Relative air moisture: 5 % to 90 %, with no-condensation.
„
Maximum altitude: 1,000 m (3,300 ft) above sea level - nominal conditions. From, 1,000 m
„
to 4,000 m (3,300 ft to 13,200 ft) above sea level – current reduction of 1 % for each 100 m
(330 ft) above 1,000 m (3,300 ft).
Pollution degree: 2 (according to the UL508).
„
Normally, only non conductive pollution. Condensation must not cause conduction in the
particles in the air.
