Commissioning Preparations
This chapter provides important reference material for commissioning a
PowerFlex air-cooled medium voltage AC drive, including:
•
recommended tools and equipment
•
safety checks
•
drive line-up data sheets
•
pre-power checks
•
control power checks
Use this document in conjunction with the most recent version of the Rockwell
Automation “Commissioning Guidelines for MV PowerFlex 7000 [A/B/C]
Frame Drives with ForGe Control” document, available to field service engineers.
Review this information before commissioning the drive line-up. Record all the
information requested in the data sheets, which will be useful during future
maintenance and troubleshooting exercises.
Perform the commissioning checks in the order listed. Failure to do so may result
in equipment failure or personal injury.
Start-up occurs at the customer's site. Rockwell Automation requests a minimum
of four weeks’ notice to schedule each start-up.
The standard Rockwell Automation work hours are between 9:00 AM to
5:00 PM EST, (8 hr/day) Monday through Friday, not including observed
holidays. Additional working hours are available on a time and material basis.
Before Commissioning
Before commissioning the drive, Rockwell Automation recommends the
following:
1.
Meet with the customer before installation to review:
a. the Rockwell Automation start-up plan
b. the start-up schedule
c. the drive(s) installation requirements
2.
Inspect the drive’s mechanical and electrical devices.
3.
Perform a tug test on all internal connections within the drive and verify
wiring.
4.
Verify critical mechanical connections for proper torque requirements.
