3.2Installation Precautions
Improper installation of the X5 drive will greatly reduce its life. Be sure to observe the following
precautions when selecting a mounting location. Failure to observe these precautions may void the warranty! See the inside front cover of this manual for more information about the warranty.
•Do not install the drive in a place subjected to high temperature, high humidity, excessive vibration,
corrosive gases or liquids, or airborne dust or metallic particles. See Chapter 2 for temperature,
humidity, and maximum vibration limits.
•Do not mount the drive near heat-radiating elements or in direct sunlight.
•Mount the drive vertically and do not restrict the air flow to the heat sink fins.
•The drive generates heat. Allow sufficient space around the unit for heat dissipation. See “Dissipation
X5 AC Drive User’s ManualChapter 3: Receiving and Installation
3.5Serial Number Label
Vacon, Inc. warrants all AC drives for three years from date of manufacture, or two years from the
date of installation, whichever comes first. For a more detailed description of our warranty policy,
see the inside front cover of this manual, or visit the web site at http://www.vacon.com. To
determine if your drive is within the warranty time frame, find the bar code label or look in the lower
left of the technical nameplate. The serial number can be broken down as follows:
yywwxxxx = yy...year of manufacture
ww...week of manufacture
xxxx...sequential number drive during that week
3.6Conduit Usage
The X5 drive in the NEMA 4x / IP66 enclosure is rated for 1000 psi washdown from 6 inches. To
keep this rating, the use of a sealed conduit is required. The use of a Romex-type conduit will not
prevent water entry into the enclosure. If the approved conduit is not used, all warranty claims
against water damage will be void.
3.7Condensation
The washdown process of an X5 drive may create a temperature and humidity change in and around
the drive. If the unit is mounted in a cool environment and washed down with higher-temperature
water, as the drive cools to room temperature, condensation can form inside the drive, especially
around the display. To prevent this from happening, avoid using sealed connectors around rubbercoated cables to seal the drive. These do not allow any air transfer and hence create a level of
condensation and humidity that exceeds the drive’s rating.
• Read and understand this manual in its entirety before installing or operating the X5 AC drive.
Installation, adjustment, repair, and maintenance of these drives must be performed by qualified
personnel.
• Disconnect all power before servicing the drive. WAIT 5 MINUTES until the DC bus capacitors
discharge.
• DO NOT short across DC bus capacitors or touch unshielded components or terminal strip screw
connections with voltage present.
• Install all covers before applying power or starting and stopping the drive.
• The user is responsible for conforming to all applicable code requirements with respect to grounding
all equipment.
• Many parts in this drive, including printed circuit boards, operate at line voltage. DO NOT TOUCH. Use
only electrically-insulated tools.
Before servicing the drive:
• Disconnect all power.
• Place a “DO NOT TURN ON” label on the drive disconnect.
• Lock the disconnect in the open position.
Failure to observe these precautions will cause shock or burn, resulting in severe personal injury
or death.

This chapter provides information on connecting power and control wiring to the X5 AC drive.
4.2General Wiring Information
4.2.1 Wiring Practices
When making power and control connections, observe these precautions:
•Never connect input AC power to the motor output terminals T1/U, T2/V, or T3/W. Damage
to the drive will result.
•Power wiring to the motor must have the maximum possible separation from all other power wiring.
Do not run in the same conduit; this separation reduces the possibility of coupling electrical noise
between circuits.
•Cross conduits at right angles whenever power and control wiring cross.
•Good wiring practice also requires separation of control circuit wiring from all power wiring. Since
power delivered from the drive contains high frequencies which may cause interference with other
equipment, do not run control wires in the same conduit or raceway with power or motor wiring.
4.2.2 Considerations for Power Wiring
Power wiring refers to the line and load connections made to terminals L1/R, L2/S, L3/T, and T1/U,
T2/V, T3/W respectively. Select power wiring as follows:
1. Use only UL-recognized wire.
2. Wire voltage rating must be a minimum of 300 V for 230 Vac systems and 600 V (Class 1 wire) for
460 or 575 Vac systems.
3. Wire gauge must be selected based on 125% of the continuous input current rating of the drive. Wire
gauge must be selected from wire tables for 75 °C insulation rating, and must be of copper construction.
The 230 V 7.5 and 15 HP models, and the 460 V 30 HP models require 90 °C wire to meet UL
requirements. See Chapter 2 for the continuous output ratings for the drive.
4. Grounding must be in accordance with NEC and CEC. If multiple X5 drives are installed near each
other, each must be connected to ground. Take care not to form a ground loop.
See Table 4-1 for a summary of wiring specifications.
