MAINTENANCE
DANGER!
Always disconnect the main power supply before touching any elec-
trical component associated to the SSW-06 Soft-Starter.
High voltages can be present even after the power supply has been
disconnected. Wait at least 3 minutes for the complete discharge of
the power capacitors.
Always connect the equipment frame to the protection earth (PE) at
the correct point for this.
ATTENTION!
Electronic boards have components sensitive to electrostatic dis-
charges.
Never touch the components or connectors directly. If this is unavoi-
dable,rsttouchthemetallicframeoruseasuitablegroundstrap.
To avoid operation problems caused by harsh ambient conditions,
such as high temperature, moisture, dirt, vibration or premature aging
of the components, periodic inspections of the Soft-Starters SSW-06
and installations are recommended.
When the SSW-06 Soft-Starter is stored for a long period of time, it is
recommended that it be energized for 1 hour, each year.
Never apply a high voltage test on the Soft-Starter SSW-06!
If this is necessary, contact WEG.

Notes:
(1) It is recommended to replace the blowers after each 40,000 hours
of operation;
(2) Twice a year.
(3) Twice a month.
Do not use a Megohmmeter for the Thyristor testing.
