CapacitorsThe drive intermediate circuit employs several electrolytic capacitors. The lifespan
depends on drive loading and ambient temperature. Capacitor life can be prolonged
by lowering the ambient temperature.
It is not possible to predict a capacitor failure. Capacitor failure is usually followed by
damage to the unit and an input cable fuse failure, or a fault trip. Contact ABB if
capacitor failure is suspected. Replacements are available from ABB. Do not use
other than ABB specified spare parts.
Reforming
Reform (re-age) spare part capacitors once a year according to Converter modules
with electrolytic DC capacitors in the DC link, Capacitor reforming instructions
(3BFE64059629 [English]).
Replacing the capacitor pack (R7)
Replace the capacitor pack as described in section Replacing the fan (R7)
Replacing the capacitor pack (R8)
1. Remove the front cover. Remove the profiled side plate.
2. Disconnect the discharging resistor wires.
3. Undo the fastening screws.
4. Lift the capacitor pack out.
5. Install the new capacitor pack in reverse order to the above.

Replacing the drive module
• Disconnect the input power cable from the module.
• Disconnect the power supply cable and the fibre optic cables from the RMIO
board and coil them on the top of the converter module.
• Disconnect the busbars outside the module.
• Undo the upper fastening screws of the module (if used).
• Disconnect the pedestal from the module by undoing the fastening (a) and busbar
connecting (b) screws.
• Secure the module from the lifting hooks at the top.
• Pull the module from the cabinet onto a pallet truck.
• Install the new module in reverse order to the above.
This table describes LEDs of the drive.
Where LED When the LED is lit
RMIO board Red Drive in fault state
Green The power supply on the board is OK.
Control panel mounting platform Red Drive in fault state
Green The main + 24 V power supply for the control panel and the
RMIO board is OK.
AINT board V204 (green) +5 V voltage of the board is OK.
V309 (red) Prevention of unexpected start-up (option +Q950) or Safe
torque off (option +Q967) is ON.
V310 (green) IGBT control signal transmission to the gate driver control
boards is enabled.
