Yaskawa F7 Drive CIMR-F7U20P4

Check ambient temperature, humidity, dust, harmful gas, and oil mist.

Check for abnormal vibration or noise in the equipment.

Inspect the main circuit and control voltage of the AC power supply.

Check transformers and reactors for discoloration or noise.

Inspect the Cooling Fans/Fins & Heatsink for abnormal fan noise and accumulation.

Check the digital operator for LED functionality, monitor display values.

Note: If the Drive is used under the following conditions, it may be necessary to inspect more often:

Select the conditions under which the Drive is used

Warning: This inspection requires trained personnel with PPE!

Inspect conductors and wire connections for loose lugs, screws, wires, hot spots, corrosion, bent conductors, breakage, cracking, discoloration, and spacing

Inspect terminal blocks for looseness or damage

Check DC bus capacitors for leakage, ruptures, expansion, capacitance, and insulation resistance

Inspect relays and contactors for noise and contact discoloration

Check soft charge resistors for cracks and discoloration

Check control circuit operation, including speed reference voltage/current and I/O contact operation

Inspect the Cooling Fans/Fins & Heatsink for loose connectors

Check the digital operator for key functionality, and cleanliness

Warning: Ensure the three-phase power is disconnected and locked out before starting the inspection

Motor is not vibrating or making unusual noises

No abnormal heat generation from the Drive or motor

Output current value shown on U1-03

Cooling fan in the Drive is operating normally

Warning: Do not touch terminals immediately after the power has been turned off

All screws and bolts on external terminals, mounting bolts, and connectors are tightened

Warning: Turn off the input power before removing and installing the heatsink cooling fan.

Drive installed using the mounting holes on the back?

If not, remove the Drive from the enclosure.

Removing the Heatsink Cooling Fan

Press in on the right and left sides of the fan cover in the direction of arrows '1' and then pull the fan out in the direction of arrow '2'.

Pull out the cable connected to the fan from the fan cover and disconnect the power connector.

Open the fan cover on the left and right sides in the direction of arrows '3' and remove the fan cover from the fan.

Installing the Heatsink Cooling Fan

Attach the fan cover to the cooling fan; Ensure that the airflow direction indicated by the arrows above faces into the Drive.

Warning: This procedure requires trained personnel with PPE!

Replace the cooling fan(s) every 2 to 3 years (20,000 hours) with a new part.

Note: The standard replacement period is based on the following usage conditions:
