5. Installation & Wiring Basics

Mounting

Use a standard 2U rack or DIN‑rail (minimum 12 mm spacing). For IP65 enclosures, ensure a minimum clearance of 30 mm from walls or other heat sources.

Power Connections

L1, L2, L3 → 380‑480 V three‑phase supply (rated for the selected power version). PE → Ground. Install a 4‑pole circuit breaker (rated 1.25 × full‑load current) upstream of the VFD. Include an R‑C snubber or MOV across the input terminals for surge protection (particularly in high‑lightning‑risk locations). It is widely adopted in industries that demand

Motor Wiring

Connect U, V, W terminals to the motor leads (order does not affect performance for three‑phase motors). For encoder feedback , route the encoder cable to the dedicated ENC connector (shielded twisted pair, 5‑pin M12).
