Component Definition and Maintenance

Replacing the Current Transformer (CT)

1.

Isolate and lock out all power to the drive.

2.

Note the location of all wires and the orientation of the CT. For quick
reference when checking the orientation of the CT, look for the white dot.

3.

Disconnect the wires.

4.

Disassemble the bus bar to remove the CT. Remove the M10 hardware to
slide out the bus bar.

5.

Remove the four screws located in the base of the CT and remove the CT.

6.

Replace the CT, ensuring the proper orientation. Fasten the CT securely
with the four screws in the base

7.

Reconnect the ring lugs. Do not overtighten or you will break the threaded
stud. For torque specifications, refer to

Torque Requirements for

Threaded Fasteners on page 183

. Replace the bus bar and tighten into

place.

Filter Capacitor Cabinet

Filter Capacitors

All “B” Frame drives use filter capacitors on the motor side. The AFE rectifier
options also include filter capacitors on the line side. Refer to

Figure 19 on

page 27

(Cabling Cabinet for AFE Rectifier) and

Figure 21 on page 29

(Cabling

Cabinet for 18 Pulse Rectifier).

The filter capacitors are three-phase, oil-filled, four-bushing units. The three-
phase capacitors are internal single-phase units connected in a Y configuration.
The neutral point of the Y connects to the fourth bushing, which is available to
use as a neutral point voltage measurement or other protection/diagnostics
purposes. The metal cases of the capacitors are grounded through a stud on the
capacitor housing.

The capacitors have internal “bleeding resistors” to discharge the capacitor and
reduce its voltage below 50V in five minutes when disconnected.

Figure 35

shows

a typical three-phase capacitor.

ATTENTION: To prevent electrical shock, disconnect the main power 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.

IMPORTANT

The CT and wires must be in the proper orientation. Note the position before
disassembly.
