Installation and Maintenance
Pre-installation preparation: Install input harmonic filters when utility short-circuit capacity >100kA. Maintain 400mm vertical clearance for convection cooling. Use symmetrical shielded motor cables with independent conduits for control wiring. Ground drive via dual 2/0 AWG copper conductors to dedicated earth grid (<0>Maintenance recommendations: Quarterly thermal imaging of power terminals. Annually measure DC bus capacitor ESR and leakage current. Verify IGBT gate resistance every 24 months. Replace cooling fans at 40,000 hours; clean heat sinks biannually with non-conductive vacuum.
