Inspection and maintenance
6.2 Daily and periodic inspections
*1) The life span of the smoothing capacitor is influenced by the
ambient temperature. Refer to [Smoothing capacitor life span
curve] for replacing measures.
*2) The life span of the cooling-fan is influenced by the ambient
temperature, the dirt and the change in its environmental
conditions. Check these circumstances on the usual inspection.
*3) The estimated time before replacement (Number of years/cycle) and
the [Smoothing capacitor life span curve] are based on the design
lifespan, not guaranteed.
*4) In the case that the capacitors are replaced after that the storage
period of 3 years has expired, before the first use please refer to the
aging process under the following conditions before using them:
・
First, apply for 1 hour the 80% of the capacitor rated voltage at
ambient temperature
・ Then, raise the voltage to 90%, and keep it for 1 more hour.
・
Finally, apply for 5 hours the rated voltage at ambient temperature
*5) In the case that the cooling-fan if affected by dust, obstructing it;
remove the dust, after that may take 5 to 10 seconds to start again.
*6) Follow the installed motor instructions

circuit
General check
(1)Check the resistance between the
main circuit and the ground terminals.
○
Dismantle the inverter main
circuit terminals input/output
wiring and the control terminal
board, and remove the jumper
for the internal filter, after
that, shortcircuit the terminals
R,S,T,U,V,W,P,PD,N,RB,R0,T0,
and measure between this
shortcircuit and the ground.
Resistance no less than 5MΩ.

(2)Check looseness in fastened parts ○ Confirm tighten of fasteners. Without abnormalities
(3)Check for overheating traces. ○ Check visually. Without abnormalities
Conductor and
cables
(1)Check for straining in conductors ○
Check visually. Without abnormalities
(2)Check for cable coating damage ○
Terminal block Check for any damage. ○ Check visually. Without abnormalities
Inverter and
converter
circuits
(Including
resistors)
Check the resistance between all the
terminals
○
Remove the inverter main
circuit terminal wiring, and
measure the following:
- Resistance between
terminals RST and PN.
- Resistance between
terminals UVW and PN Consult the “Method of
checking the inverter and
converter circuits”. The inverter,
