at a minimum. The internal capacitor stays charged after the drive is de-energized. The charge indicator LED
extinguishes when the DC bus voltage decreases below 50 Vdc. When all indicators are OFF, measure for
dangerous voltages to make sure that the drive is safe. If you do work on the drive when it is energized, it will
cause serious injury or death from electrical shock.

◆ Compatible Products
This installation kit is compatible with these drives:
• GA500
◆ Installation Environment
The installation environment is important for the lifespan of the product and to make sure that
the drive performance is correct. Make sure that the installation environment agrees with these
specifications.
IP20/UL Open Type: -10 °C to +50 °C (14 °F to 122 °F)
• Drive reliability is better in environments where the temperature does not increase or decrease
quickly.
• When you install the drive in an enclosure, use a cooling fan or air conditioner to keep the internal
air temperature in the permitted range.
• Do not let the drive freeze.
95%RH or less
Do not let condensation form on the drive.

It is not necessary to derate the rated voltage in these conditions:
• Installing the drive at 2000 m (6562 ft) or lower
• Installing the drive between 2000 m to 4000 m (6562 ft to 13123 ft) and grounding the neutral
point on the power supply.
Contact Yaskawa or your nearest sales representative if you will not ground the neutral point.
