Chapter 4 Commissioning
Service Data This section of the commissioning chapter has been included in this manual so
that all of the system nameplate data and variable set points can be captured as
commissioned.
Why this Information is Needed
When a PowerFlex 7000 “C” Frame medium voltage AC drive is commissioned,
the start-up sometimes occurs in an artificial environment. There’s usually no
actual process being performed, and no load, at least not a full load. Therefore,
the application situation is artificial and this isn’t an ideal time to establish
parameter baselines to signature the drive. After commissioning is complete, the
drive is at full capacity and realistic load conditions occur; parameters such as
speed regulation may begin to drift and the drive will not perform as designed to
meet processing requirements.
It is important that the information required on the following pages is completed
in a detailed and accurate manner and that immediately after their completion,
the following data sheets are submitted to the customer and to the factory. They
will be required to perform modifications on the drive line-up once production
commences.
It is common for modifications to be made to the drive’s program some time
during the two-month period following the drive commissioning. This is done to
ensure that speed control, direction, starting and stopping functions are all
performing with precision.
In addition to system modifications, the factory will use the data sheet as an
indication that the system is running. The date on the commissioning data sheets
will indicate to the factory the date that the system has been started and will be
used to commence the product warranty.
In the unlikely event the system is not operating as designed, it will be possible to
trend performance between similar applications and topologies. In the event a
product notification or recall is required, the datasheets will be used to identify if
the customer falls under the definition for an update.
These data sheets will be archived at the factory for future reference.
