Check wire harness and control voltage
Check and change.
Verify connectors.
Check power supply board and logic
board for 5VDC. Use a DC voltmeter on
the power supply board, (-) lead of
voltmeter on the top lead of C6 (located
next to the black heatsink on the right
edge of the power supply board) and the
(+) lead of voltmeter on top lead of Diode
AD21 or R25 (located on the upper right
corner of the power supply board.)
Check and change.
Check 1 L 1
1 L 1 phase and/or mains
frequence
Verify overload conditions during starting
time and steady state. Check settings in
parameters "Nxxx", "Lxxx", and "oxxx"
Check 1 L 1
1 L 1 phase
Check thyristor module.
Check ground connections and voltage to
ground.
Poor ribbon cable connection
Check 2 T 1 , 4 T 2
2 T 1 , 4 T 2 and 6 T 3
Check for adequate ventilation.
Check thermostat and wiring
Check thermistor and wiring, if no
thermistor terminal 5 and 6 must be
jumpered
Check power wire harness for 1 L 1 ,
3 L 2 , 5 L 3 , 2 T 1 , 4 T 2 and 6 T 3
3 L 2 , 5 L 3 , 2 T 1 , 4 T 2
Verify gate and cathode wire harness.
Verify thyristors
Restart equipment and check for an
appreciable loss in motor speed at any
time
Check IC1 and IC8 are correctly inserted
in their sockets.
Check for noise on control voltage power
or line
Increase current limit and / or acceleration
ramp time
Check if settings are correct.
This protection may be disabled
Check if settings are correct.
This protection may be disabled
Check if settings are correct.
