5 Internal Drive Operation
5.1 Introduction
This section is intended to provide an operational overview
of the main assemblies and circuitry of a drive. With this
information, a repair technician can better understand the
operation of the drive and the troubleshooting process.
5.2 Description of Operation
A drive is an electronic controller that supplies a regulated
amount of AC power to a 3-phase asynchronous motor. By
supplying variable frequency and voltage to the motor, the
drive controls the motor speed. It can also maintain a
constant speed as the load on the motor changes. The
drive can also stop and start a motor without the
mechanical stress associated with a line start.
In its basic form, the drive can be divided into the
following 4 main areas:
•
Rectier
•
DC link (DC bus)
•
Inverter
•
Control
See Illustration 5.1 for details.
Within those areas, components are grouped into 3
sections:
•
Control logic section
•
Logic-to-power interface
•
Power section
These areas and components are covered in greater detail
in chapter 5.3 Sequence of Operation.
