  • If you have ever worked around AC Drives also know as VFD, you may run into situations where the input fuses are blown. Maybe the motor went bad on you. Now you are not sure if the AC drive is good or not. You are afraid to power up the AC drive.
    Well, there is a way to check your high voltage circuit on your AC Drive giving you the confidence to apply voltage to the AC drive again.
    Follow along as I show you how to do this simple test called, "Static Check" to give you the okay to apply power to your AC drive.

    If you have a problem with your control board, this may also be a cause of IGBT Gate short-circuited. Beware. The gates could not be accessed from outside, dismantle and check.

    What would be the readings if there was a short circuit?

  • @wirenutt57
    @wirenutt57 3 роки тому +3

    How about checking the rectifier diodes with reverse polarity? You checked the forward voltage drop, but if you switch the leads, you should get an open. If you get anything other than high resistance, the diode could be shorted. Take into account the fact that the huge filter caps will take a bit to charge, and you might see a temporary short because of that.

    Good Evening. I have washing machine (laundry) using single phase input with 3 phase motor. My priblem is.... The motor body tempreture very hot, touch by hand. Than sometime, motor not running. In this case, motor problem or VFD problem? Plesse advise.

    • @electronictech785
      @electronictech785  3 роки тому +1

      A single phase being turned back to 3 phase is already not the best way to drive a motor but with that being said, I would check the motor out first if its heating up.

    Hi, this test can be conducted in a new vfd. Or ii need to power it first .then disconnect the cables . I tested in a new vfd but everything is open. That's my question. Again what if the cable is faulty or motor . One say whole the cable was faulty the vfd was showing dc bus over voltage can you explain that to ne

    • @electronictech785
      @electronictech785  4 роки тому

      Yes, new and used. You are checking the bridge rectifier and the IGBTs. This test is not for testing cables so the line input cables and motor cables should be disconnected. DC Bus over voltage means that the voltage on the Bus has exceeded the VFDs threshold.

    Most of the VFDs sold today don't provide the + and - terminals for the DC bus. How can the diodes be checked without the + and - terminals?

    • @electronictech785
      @electronictech785  4 роки тому

      In that case, you'll have to get access to the bus caps which would require you to take it apart. The only time we see VFDs with no + and - terminals are the small Horse Power VFDs.
