3. Checking the power stage
The measurements described below are to be carried out only by
skilled specialists. Use a digital voltmeter. The measuring values
indicate the nominal value. If they are different from your measure-
ments, there is a defect.
3.1. Checking the mains rectifier
•
Disconnect the controller from the mains.
Caution!
Wait 5 minutes until the DC-bus is discharged no load!
•
Measure directly at the power terminals.
