SECTION 9: TROUBLESHOOTING

(CONTINUED)

TROUBLESHOOTING FAULTS, ALARMS AND

PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS

In Troubleshooting, always consider the following
possibilities:

• Faults — Press Reset key first, enter Start Up

Assistant and verify the settings are appropriate.

• Electrical supply/ motor/ wiring/grounding

— check your supply voltage, motor wiring,
transducer wiring, and grounding.

• Mechanical/Pump/ Rotation — check pump

rotation, rubbing or other mechanical problems;
pump “run out”.

APPENDIX A: INPUT POWER SPECIFICATIONS

Do not operate the drive outside the nominal
input line voltage range. Over-voltage can result in
permanent damage to the drive.

SOMETIMES DRIVE INPUT ISOLATION

TRANSFORMERS ARE SPECIFIED TO DEAL WITH

ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING ISSUES:

1) Short Circuit Protection: Input transformers are

sometimes used to provide impedance to reduce
the available short circuit current to levels that the
input clearing devices, such as fuses or circuit
breakers, are rated to handle. Line reactors can

perform this impedance function much more cost

effectively.

2) Transient Protection: Input transformers are

sometimes used to provide transient surge
impedance. All the SPD Plus drives have
capacitors and MOV's (Metal Oxide Varistor transient
protectors) providing 120 to 360 joules, line to line

• Hydraulic System/ Piping — check to ensure

proper suction and discharge piping layout,
proper NPSHa, air entrainment, vortex, friction
loss, system curve compensation etc.

• Environment — protect from high temperatures,

direct sun, freezing temperatures, high altitude,
dust, vibration, lack of air flow.

to ground transient protection. Isolation
transformers are not required for this protection
within those energy levels. Additional distribution
transformer primary transient surge arrestors
may be required if the potential transient energy
reflected to the drive exceed those levels. MOV's
are rated to handle high levels of one shot
transient energy. MOV's are not meant to handle
continuously recurring transients. A problem
of continuously recurring transients should be
corrected before connecting a drive.

3) Harmonic Mitigation: Input transformers are

sometimes used to provide impedance to reduce
the harmonic currents generated in the drive. Line

reactors can perform this function much more

cost effectively.
