ZENER VARIDRIVE SOLUTIONS
PREPARATION & PRELIMINARY CHECKS
CAUTION!
Check PV voltage and polarity at the PV side of the Isolation switch at maximum solar intensity. Check all wiring
in particular polarity. The PV DC bus voltage must not exceed 800VDC for 8E type or 400VDC for the 8EL type
ECODRIVE. If an auxiliary AC power supply is to be used, check all wiring to the ECODRIVE and the functionality
of the control panel.
STEP 1: Prepare to apply power
1. Disable the ECODRIVE, by removing the wire in terminal 6 (ENABLE) or ensure RUN/STOP switch is set to 'STOP' (if fitted).
2. Switch the ECODRIVE to operate in local mode. If AUTO/Manual switch fitted, switch to manual or remove wire from terminal
5 (D4 = REMOTE).
3. Fit all covers and apply power to the ECODRIVE. If there is sufficient solar energy, switch on the PV array to the ECODRIVE, or
switch the AC power supply if connected.
STEP 2: Check pump rotation
Using the local control panel, press FWD and increase the speed to check pump direction. If direction is correct go to step 3. If
direction is incorrect, switch off all the supply isolators and ensure all power is removed from the ECODRIVE
the output of the ECODRIVE (not the input) and recheck the direction.
CAUTION!
Before touching and removing the cover, disconnect all supply sources and wait at least 11minutes for the
capacitors to discharge. Before touching anything inside the equipment or anything connected to the
terminals inside, check that there are no hazardous voltages present, AC or DC.
