Toshiba Single-phase 200V class 0.2 to 2.2kW Inspection and maintenance, Regular inspection

E6581090

14. Inspection and maintenance

Warning

•The equipment must be inspected every day.

	If the equipment is not inspected and maintained, errors and malfunctions may not be
Mandatory	discovered which could lead to accidents.

•Before inspection, perform the following steps. ①Shut off all input power to the inverter.

②Wait for at least 15 minutes and check that the charge lamp is no longer lit.

③Use a tester that can measure DC voltages (800V DC or more), and check that the voltage to the DC main circuits (across PA-PC) does not exceed 45V.

Performing an inspection without carrying out these steps first could lead to electric shock.

Be sure to inspect the inverter regularly and periodically to prevent it from breaking down because of the environment of use, such as temperature, humidity, dust and vibration, or deterioration of its components with aging.

14.1Regular inspection

Since electronic parts are susceptible to heat, install the inverter in a cool, well-ventilated and dust-free place. This is essential for increasing the service life.

The purpose of regular inspections is to maintain the correct environment of use and to find any sign of failure or malfunction by comparing current operation data with past operation records.
