P9 ASD Quick Start Guide 9
Operational and Maintenance 
Precautions
• Turn off and lock out/tag out the main power, the control power, and instrumentation connections 
before inspecting or servicing the drive, opening the door of the enclosure, or connecting/
disconnecting the power wiring to the equipment.
• The capacitors of the ASD maintain a residual charge for a period of time after turning the ASD off. 
The required time for each ASD typeform is indicated with a cabinet label and a Charge Indicator 
LED (shown for smaller ASDs in Figure 2 on pg. 12; LED is located on the front panel of larger 
ASDs). Wait at least the minimum time indicated on the enclosure-mounted label and ensure that 
the Charge Indicator LED has gone out before opening the door of the ASD once the ASD power 
has been turned off.
• Turn the power on only after attaching (or closing) the front cover and DO NOT remove or open 
the front cover of the ASD when the power is on.
• DO NOT attempt to disassemble, modify, or repair the ASD. Call your TIC Sales Representative 
for repair information.
• DO NOT place any objects inside of the ASD.
• If the ASD should emit smoke, or an unusual odor or sound, turn off the power immediately.
• The heat sink and other components may become extremely hot to the touch. Allow the unit to cool 
before coming in contact with these items.
•The Auto Start-Stop programmable functions and the Sleep Timer function of the ASD may 
allow for the system to start or stop unexpectedly. Signs to this effect are to be clearly posted at the 
installation location.
• Remove power from the ASD during extended periods of non-use.
• The system should be inspected periodically for damaged or improperly functioning parts, 
cleanliness, and to ensure that the connectors are tightened securely.
