Yaskawa CIMR-AU 200V Drives - Manual (Page 231)

6.2 Periodic Maintenance
The drive has Maintenance Monitors that keep track of component wear. This feature provides advance maintenance warning
and eliminates the need to shut down the entire system for unexpected problems. The drive allows the user to check predicted
maintenance periods for the components listed below.
• Cooling Fan, Circulation Fan, Control Board Cooling Fan
• Electrolytic Capacitors
• Inrush Prevention Circuit
• IGBTs
For replacement parts, contact the distributor where the drive was purchased or contact Yaskawa directly.
u Replacement Parts
Table 6.3 contains the estimated performance life of components that require replacement during the life of the drive. Only
use Yaskawa replacement parts for the appropriate drive model and revision.
Table 6.3 Estimated Performance Life
Component Estimated Performance Life
Cooling Fan, Circulation Fan 10 years
Electrolytic Capacitors 10 years <1>
<1> Electrolytic capacitors cannot be replaced on some lower capacity models. Complete drive replacement may be required for these models.
NOTICE: Estimated performance life based on specific usage conditions. These conditions are provided for the purpose of replacing parts
to maintain performance. Some parts may require more frequent replacement due to poor environments or rigorous use.
Usage conditions for estimated performance life:
Ambient temperature: Yearly average of 40 °C (IP00/Open Type enclosure)
Load factor: 80% maximum
Operation time: 24 hours a day
n Performance Life Monitors Maintenance Monitors
The drive calculates the maintenance period for components that may require replacement during the life of the drive. A
percentage of the maintenance period is displayed on the digital operator by viewing the appropriate monitor parameter.
When the maintenance period reaches 100%, there is increased risk that the drive may malfunction. Yaskawa recommends
checking the maintenance period regularly to ensure maximum performance life.
Refer to Recommended Periodic Inspection on page 229 for more details.
