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. 

 

5.1  Inspection Interval 

Table 7.1-1 lists the inspection intervals and check items, as a guide.

Replacement of DC link bus capacitors and close checks 
Replacement of fuses 

*1  The decennial inspection (except replacement of cooling fans) should be performed only by the persons who have 

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. 
Table 5.2-1 lists daily inspection items.

How to inspect 

Evaluation criteria 

Environment 

1)  Check the ambient temperature, 

humidity, vibration and atmosphere 

(dust, gas, oil mist, or water drops). 

2)  Check that tools or other foreign 

materials or dangerous objects are not 

left around the equipment. 

1) Check visually or 

measure using 

apparatus. 

 

2) Visual inspection 

1) The installation 

environment given in 

Chapter 1, Section 1.3.1 

must be satisfied. 

2)  No foreign or dangerous 

objects are left. 

External 

appearance and 

others 

1)  Check that the bolts securing the wires 

to the main circuit terminals and 

control circuit terminals are not loose 

before turning the power ON. 

25 

2)  Check for traces of overheat, 

discoloration and other defects. 

3)  Check for abnormal noise, odor, or 

excessive vibration. 

1) Retighten. 
 
 
2) Visual inspection 

1)  No looseness. If loose, 

retighten the screws. 

2), 3) 

 
3)  Auditory, visual, and 

olfactory inspection 

 No 

abnormalities 

Cooling fans 

Check for abnormal noise or excessive 

vibration when the cooling fans are in 

operation. 

Auditory and visual 

inspections 

No abnormalities
