8.6 Extended storage
MOVIFIT
®
basic is equipped with capacitors which are subject to aging effects when de-
energized.
The capacity and impedance of the built-in capacitors of MOVIFIT
®
basic do not change
significantly during extended storage. However, the leakage current of the capacitors
slowly increases.
If the unit is stored for a long time, connect it to the supply system voltage for at least
5 minutes every 2 years. Otherwise, the unit's service life may be reduced.
8.6.1 Procedure if maintenance has been neglected
When maintenance has been neglected, SEW-EURODRIVE recommends to operate
the unit for 1 hour with the permitted nominal voltage at room temperature. Keep the
connected motor running during the entire time. After you have completed the regener-
ation process, the unit can be used immediately or stored again for an extended period
with maintenance.
