Inspection Area Inspection Points Corrective Action Checked
General
• Examine equipment for discoloration from too
much heat or deterioration.
• Examine for damaged parts.
• Replace damaged components as necessary.
• The drive does not have many serviceable parts and it could be necessary to
replace the drive.
Examine for dirt, unwanted particles, or dust on
components.
• Examine enclosure door seal.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove unwanted particles and dust without
touching the components.
• If you cannot remove unwanted particles and dust with a vacuum cleaner,
replace the components.
Conductors and
Wiring
• Examine wiring and connections for discoloration
or damage. Examine wiring and connections for
discoloration from too much heat.
• Examine wire insulation and shielding for
discoloration and wear.
Repair or replace damaged wiring.
Terminal Block
Examine terminals for stripped, damaged, or loose
connections.
• Tighten loose screws.
• Replace damaged screws.
Electromagnetic
Contactors and
Relays
• Examine contactors and relays for too much noise
during operation.
• Examine coils for signs of too much heat, such as
melted or broken insulation.
• Check coil voltage for overvoltage or undervoltage conditions.
• Replace broken relays, contactors, or circuit boards that you can remove.
Dynamic Braking
Option
Examine the insulation for discoloration from too
much heat.
If there is discoloration in the option, check to make sure that there is not damage
to the wiring. A small quantity of discoloration is not a problem.
Electrolytic
Capacitor
• Examine for leaks, discoloration, or cracks.
• Examine if the cap has come off, if there is
swelling, or if there are leaks from broken sides.
The drive does not have many serviceable parts and it could be necessary to
replace the drive.
Diodes, IGBT
(Power Transistor)
Examine for dust or other unwanted material
collected on the surface.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove unwanted particles and dust without touching
the components.

Inspection Area Inspection Points Corrective Action Checked
General
• Examine terminals for stripped, damaged, or
loose connections.
• Make sure that all terminals have been correctly
tightened.
• Tighten loose screws.
• Replace damaged screws or terminals.
• If terminals are integral to a circuit board, it could be necessary to replace the
control board or the drive.
Circuit Boards
• Check for odor, discoloration, or rust.
• Make sure that all connections are correctly
fastened.
• Make sure that the surface of the circuit board
does not have dust or oil mist.
• Tighten loose connections.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove unwanted particles and dust without
touching the components.
• If you cannot remove unwanted particles and dust with a vacuum cleaner,
replace the components.
• Do not use solvents to clean the board.
• The drive does not have many serviceable parts and it could be necessary to
replace the drive.

Cooling fan
• Check for unusual oscillation or unusual noise.
• Check for damaged or missing fan blades.
Clean or replace the fans as necessary.
Heatsink
• Examine for dust or other unwanted material
collected on the surface.
• Examine for dirt.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove unwanted particles and dust without touching
the components.
Air Duct
Examine air intake, exhaust openings and make sure
that there are no unwanted materials on the surface.
Clear blockages and clean air duct as necessary.

General
• Make sure that the keypad shows the data
correctly.
• Examine for dust or other unwanted material that
collected on components in the area.
• Clean the keypad.
• If you have problems with the display or the keys, contact the manufacturer or
your nearest sales representative.
