8. Check for the appropriate voltages
outlined in Table F.6. Note:
Voltages may vary with the input
line voltage.
In the event the capacitor voltage is
too high or not balanced (within
20VDC) the protection circuit will pre-
vent output. The overvoltage trip set-
ting is nominal line voltage (230/460)
+15%. Reset occurs about 3% lower
(230/460) +12%.
9. If the capacitor voltages are NOT
balanced within 20VDC the capaci-
tors may be need “conditioning” .
See
maintenance section.
The capacitors or other components
on the power board may be faulty.
Replace power board.
