2.No one other than the appointed operators could perform
maintenance and part replacement and other operations.(Metal objects
such as watches and rings should be taken off before operation, and use
tools with insulation in operation.)
3.Rebuilding the AC drive is absolutely forbidden.
4.Avoid electric shock and facility accident.

8.1 Daily Inspections
8.2 Periodic Inspection
AC drive consists of multiple parts including electronic parts such as
ICs, resistors, capacitors and transistors as well as cooling fans and
relays and so on. These parts aren’t permanently durable and cannot be
used forever. Even if used under normal environment, once the life
period has exceeded, faults are easily to occur. Therefore, preventive
periodic check is necessary, in order to find out the parts with poor
quality or those fall short of the standard, and eliminate the causes for AC
drive malfunction. At the same time, the parts that have exceeded their
life period could also be replaced, so as to ensure fine operation.
During power-up and operation, without taking away the cover,
check the operation of AC drive with eye survey from outside and confirm
that there’s nothing abnormal. Usually, check the followings:
■whether the operation performance accord with the regulation
■whether the environment accord with the regulation
■whether keyboard panel display is normal
■whether without abnormal noises, vibrations and abnormal odor
■whether without abnormality such as overheat or change in color
Before doing the periodic inspection, first stop operation, shut off
power supply and take away the cover.
Even when the power supply of the AC drive is shut off, there’s still
charged voltage on the filter capacitors and it takes some time to
discharge. In order to avoid the danger, be sure to wait until the charge
indicator goes out and test with a voltmeter to ensure the voltage is lower
than safe value(≤25Vdc) before the operation of inspection.
1.For AC drives ≤ 22kW, wait 5 minutes after shutting down the
power, and wait 10 minutes for those ≥ 30kW. Not until the DC voltage
between terminals N- and P+ is lower than DC25V could examination
