IMPORTANT COMMISSIONING CHECKS
•
Inspect the equipment for any signs of physical damage.
•
Verify SMC Flex physical installation is complete.
•
Verify the integrity and operation of all safety interlocks.
•
Verify that motor mechanical installation is complete.
•
Verify that Incoming Power wiring to SMC Flex is complete and all
connections are tight.
•
Verify that Motor cabling to SMC Flex is complete and that all
connections are tight.
•
Verify that Control wiring to SMC Flex is complete.
•
Check for any damaged components and verify that electrical clearances
have not been reduced while installing power cables.
•
Verify Incoming Power System Grounding
(Floating/Solid-Ground/Resistive Ground) and determine if Vcom on the
interface board should be connected to a ground reference or not (refer
to
•
Check if there are any Power Factor Correction Capacitors (refer to
Factor Correction Capacitors on page 51 of Chapter 2
for correct
installation requirements of these capacitors).
•
Check if Surge Capacitors and/or Surge Arrestors are installed at the
motor. Open motor junction box and verify it by yourself. These must be
disconnected from the circuit. (refer to
Surge Arrestor Protection Devices
•
Verify fiber-optic cables are connected at the right location (FO cables on
Phase-A power pole go to Phase-A on the Interface board, Phase-B of
power pole to Phase-B on the Interface board and Phase-C of power pole
to Phase-C on the interface board) and the connectors are fully seated in
their sockets.
•
Verify that circuit board plug connectors are installed and fully inserted in
their sockets.
•
Verify that the cooling fan (if supplied) is secured and the rotor is not
obstructed.
•
Complete device resistance checks per user manual (refer to
Checks on page 68 of Chapter 3
).
