AC Inverter Drive
Machines equipped with AC drives require
special attention with regard to the
operating environment.
1. An especially dusty or linty environment
will require more frequent cleaning of the
AC drive cooling fan filter and of the AC
drive itself.
2. Power line fluctuations from sources such
as an interruptible power supplies (UPS)
can adversely affect machines equipped
with the AC drive. Proper suppression
devices should be utilized on the incoming
power to the machine to avoid problems.
3. A clean power supply free from voltage
spikes and surges is absolutely essential for
machines equipped with the AC drive.
Nonlinear inconsistencies (peaks and
valleys) in the power can cause the AC
drive to generate nuisance errors. If
voltage is above 230V for 200 V
installations or above 440V for 400V
installations, a buck/boost transformer is
recommended. If voltage is above 240V
or 480V, a buck/boost transformer is
required unless the factory advises
differently.
4. Sufficient space to perform service
procedures and routine preventive
maintenance is especially important for
machines equipped with AC drives.
Misuse
Even though this machine is an atmospheric
vessel, never use it for any purpose other
than washing fabrics.
1. Never wash petroleum-soaked rags in the
machine. This could result in an explosion
2. Never wash machine parts or
automotive parts in the machine. This could
result in serious damage to the basket.
3. Never stone wash in the machine. It
could wear the basket and serious damage
might occur to the machine.
4. Never use the machine for dying and
with harsh chemicals that can cause
corrosion and other health hazards.
5. Never allow children to play on or
around this machine. Death or serious
injury can result if children become trapped
in the machine. Do not leave children
unattended while the machine door is open.
these cautions apply to animals as well.
