8.5 Maintenance
The iS5 series is an industrial electronic product with advanced semiconductor elements. However, temperature,
humidity, vibration and aging parts may still affect it. To avoid this, it is recommended to perform routine inspections.
8.5.1
Precautions
n
Be sure to remove the drive power input while performing maintenance.
n
Be sure to perform maintenance only after checking that the bus has discharged. The bus capacitors in the
electronic circuit can still be charged even after the power is turned off.
n
The correct output voltage can only be measured by using a rectifier voltage meter. Other voltage meters,
including digital voltage meters, are likely to display incorrect values caused by the high frequency PWM output
voltage of the drive.
8.5.2
Routine Inspection
Be sure to check the following before operation:
n
The conditions of the installation location
n
The conditions of the drive cooling
n
Abnormal vibration
n
Abnormal heating
8.5.3
Periodical Inspection
n
Are there any loose bolt, nut or rust caused by surrounding conditions? If so, tighten them up or replace them.
n
Are there any deposits inside the drive-cooling fan? If so, remove using air.
n
Are there any deposits on the drive’s PCB (Printed Circuit Boards)? If so, remove using air.
n
Are there any abnormalities in the various connectors of the drive’s PCB? If so, check the condition of the connector
in question.
n
Check the rotating condition of the cooling fan, the size and condition of the capacitors and the connections with the
magnetic contactor. Replace them if there are any abnormalities.
8.5.4
Internal Fuse Replacement
When the internal fuse is opened the IGBT ’s should be checked thoroughly before replacing the fuse.
Contact the factory for replacement fuse information.
