Can I Remove the Front Bottom Conduit Cover on Altivar Process 600 and 900 Drives?
Resolution:
No, it is not recommended to remove the front bottom conduit cover.
Explanation:
Altivar Process 600 and 900 drives are designed to meet an IP21 protection rating, which ensures that internal components—such as control terminals and wiring—are protected and safe from accidental contact (finger-safe).
Removing the front bottom cover exposes these components, which:
- Compromises user safety
- Voids the IP21 protection rating
- Increases the risk of electrical hazards
Recommendation:
Always keep the front bottom conduit cover installed to maintain proper protection and safe operation of the drive.
