Introduction Chapter 1 A number of identical low voltage power modules are series-connected (cascaded) together to produce the medium voltage levels required to operate the motor. The voltage step for each module is relatively small and a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching pattern is used so output harmonics and torque pulsations at the motor are minimal, even at lower speeds.

Chapter Preventative Maintenance and Component Replacement Safety ATTENTION: Servicing energized Medium Voltage Motor Control Equipment can be hazardous. Severe injury or death can result from electrical shock, bump, or unintended actuation of controlled equipment. Recommended practice is to disconnect and lockout control equipment from power sources, and release stored energy, if present.For countries following NEMA standards, refer to National Fire Protection Association Standard No.
Obstruction of the air filters is the main cause of poor cooling airflow. The PowerFlex 6000 drive uses a number of cooling fans installed at the top of the cabinet to ensure that sufficient air flow is used to cool the power components and other heating equipment.
Page 89
IEC 61800-5-1 Sec. 6.5 for MV Drives and IEC 60470 Sec. 10, IEC 62271-1 Sec. 10.4 for MV Controllers. The maintenance work for the PowerFlex 6000 drive should normally be performed on a yearly cycle. This work is carried out by Rockwell Automation medium voltage drive customers.
Physical Checks (No Medium Power Connection Inspection Voltage or Control Power) • Inspect PowerFlex 6000 drive, input/output/bypass sections, and all associated drive components for loose power cable connections and ground cable connections: torque them based on the required torque specifications.
Preventative Maintenance and Component Replacement Chapter 5 Medium Voltage Testing Medium voltage insulation resistance (IR) or dielectric withstanding voltage tests should not be used to check solid-state control equipment.
