Chapter 5 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
Perform daily and periodic inspections to avoid trouble and keep reliable operation of the dynamic breaking unit for a long
time. When performing inspections, follow the instructions given in this chapter.
• Before proceeding to the maintenance/inspection jobs,
turn OFF the power OFF, wait at least ten minutes,
and
make sure that the charging lamp are turned OFF. Further, make sure, using a multimeter or a similar instrument, that
the DC link bus voltage between the terminals P(+) and N(-) has dropped to the safe level (+25 VDC or below).
Electric shock may occur.
• Maintenance, inspection, and parts replacement should be made only by authorized persons.
• Take off the watch, rings and other metallic objects before starting work.
• Use insulated tools.
• Never modify the dynamic breaking unit.
Electric shock or injuries could occur.

finished the Fuji Electric training course. Contact the sales agent where you purchased the product or your nearest Fuji
Electric representative.
*2 For the standard replacement interval of cooling fans, refer to Section 5.4 "List of Periodic Replacement Parts."
The replacement intervals are based on the stack type's service life estimated at an ambient temperature of 30
°
C.
In environments with an ambient temperature above 40
°
C or a large amount of dust or dirt, the replacement
intervals may be shorter.
Standard replacement intervals mentioned above are only a guide for replacement, not a guaranteed service life.
5.2 Daily Inspection
Visually inspect the dynamic breaking unit for operation errors from the outside without removing the covers when the
dynamic breaking unit is running or the power is ON.
