INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
9-2
9-1) Inspection
The servo amplifier (RYB type) consists of electronic parts and requires no routine inspection.
The servomotor is of a synchronous type (brushless) and has no part that requires routine maintenance.
Though both the servo amplifier and servomotor are maintenance-free, perform periodic inspection to
avoid possible accidents and keep reliability of the equipment.
n Prior to inspection, turn off power and wait for at least five minutes. Otherwise, there is a
risk of electric shock.
n
Do not touch the servo amplifier when the commercial power is supplied. If attempted,
there is a risk of electric shock.
Inspection items are as follows.
Inspection item
Device Description

Before checking electrical wirings, turn off the
power and wait for 5 minutes and then check that
the [CHARGE] LED is off on the keypad panel.
n Do not perform megger test on the PC-board or terminal block of servo amplifier. If
attempted, the servo amplifier and the encoder housed in the servomotor may be broken.
