Commissioning 4-11
7000 “A” Frame 7000A-RM001A-EN-P – January 2011
Key Steps to Commissioning a PF7000 Drive
As a guide for a commissioning engineer, the major steps involved in the commissioning of medium
voltage PF7000 drives are outlined below in a sequential order. For detailed instructions, always refer
to PowerFlex7000 User Manual.
• Review the drawings and identify all sources of energy that apply to the drive system and get
better understanding of the application to which the drive system is applied.
• Follow Safety Procedures and apply LOTO before working on the equipment
• Complete all Power Off checks and note down motor and drive nameplate data
• Apply control power and perform Power On checks
• Perform Gating Test
• Program the drive after verifying the information on EDs and DDs against the equipment
nameplate data.
• Perform System Test and verify operation of the drive and the associated controls
• Remove any jumpers used during system test
• Inspect the drive line-up and ensure that no tools are left inside the cabinets before closing them.
• Apply medium voltage and complete incoming line phasing checks and take harmonic
measurements
• Perform DC Test. Ensure that the Diagnostic Trend is setup and ready before attempting the DC
Test.
• Perform Stationary Autotune tests (first 2 autotune tests)
• Bump the motor for rotation check
• Complete Rotating Autotune tests (last autotune test)
• Save the parameters in NVRAM and also transfer them from Drive to Memory and also print the
Drive Setup to your laptop
• Start the drive in normal operation, print variables and capture waveforms
• Complete commissioning documentation
