The method for replacing the Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) is
almost identical to that of the SGCT. The one exception is that the
SCR and circuit board can be replaced independently of one another.
1. Ensure there is no power to the equipment.
A T T E N T I O N A T T E N T I O N To prevent electrical shock, ensure the main
power has been disconnected before working on
the drive. Verify that all circuits are voltage free
using a hot stick or appropriate voltage-measuring
device. Failure to do so may result in injury or
death.
2. Note the position of the Fiber Optic Cables for reassembly.
3. To Remove the SCR and SCR SPGD Board, it is necessary to
remove the Gate Driver Power Supply connector (from snubber
circuit), the fiber optic cable, and the SCR gate-cathode
connection. Exceeding the minimum bend radius (50 mm/2 in.)
of the fiber optic cables may result in damage.
A T T E N T I O N A T T E N T I O N The fiber optic cables can be damaged if struck
or bent sharply. The minimum bend radius is 50
mm (2 inches). The connector has a locking
feature that requires pinching the tab and gently
pulling straight out. The component on the
printed circuit board should be held to prevent
damage.
4. Remove the load on the clamp head assembly as described on
page 6-23.
5. Loosen the 2 captive screws with a long Phillips screwdriver
until the circuit board is free. It may be necessary to adjust the
position of the chill blocks to allow free movement of the SCR.
6. Slide the SCR and SCR SPGD Board straight out.
7. While grounded, unplug the Gate-Cathode phoenix connector
from the SCR SPGD Board.
