IPM [IGBT] breakdown diagnostics (Inverter PCB)
1. Preparations before checking
1) Power Off.
2) IPM failure, discharge mode may not work properly. Therefore, wait more than 15 minutes after the Power Off.
3) Remove all of the Inverter PCB connectors and wir e that is fixed as screw.
(In
clude wire that is fixed to compressor and DC Reactor.)
4) Prepar e the digital multi test er.
2. Inspection Method
1) Refer to Figure1 and Table1, respectively the resistance value and diode voltage value measure .
2) According to the criterion in Table 1 to det
ermine whether the failure of IPM.
