1  Turn OFF the main switches and wait for three minu-
tes. Make sure that no high voltage exists. If LED201 
is ON after start-up and LED201 is OFF after turning 
OFF  power source,  the voltage  will  decrease lower 
than DC50V.
2  Connect  connecting  wires  to  an  electrical  soldering 
iron
3  Connect the wires to terminals, P and N on DIP-IPM. 
(The discharge voltage can perform even when con-
necting the wires  to terminals 
#1(P) and  #3(N) of 
connector “PCN201”) => Discharging is started, re-
sulting in hot soldering iron. Pay attention not to short-
circuit between terminal P(+) and N(-)
4  Wait for 2 or 3 minutes and measure the voltage once 
again. Check to ensure that no voltage is charged.

•  Rectier circuit of inverter PCB
Internal circuit of rectied part of DIP-IPM
Remove  all  the  terminals  of  the  inverter  PCB  before 
checking.
Non-faulty if [1] – [8] are checked and satised. 
Measure with 1 kΩ range of a tester.
