WARNING! All electrical installation and maintenance work on the ACS 800
should be carried out by qualified electricians.
Do not attempt any work on a powered ACS 800. After switching off the
mains, always allow the intermediate circuit capacitors 5 minutes to
discharge before working on the frequency converter, the motor or the motor
cable. The voltage between each input terminal (U1, V1 and W1) and earth
must be measured with a multimeter (impedance at least 1MW) to ensure that
the frequency converter is discharged before beginning work.
All insulation tests must be carried out with the ACS 800 disconnected from
the cabling.
The ACS 800 motor cable terminals are at a dangerously high voltage when
input power is applied, regardless of motor operation. No work on the motor
cable should be attempted with mains power applied.
There can be dangerous voltage inside the ACS 800 from external control
circuits when the ACS 800 input power is shut off. No work on the control
cables should be attempted when power is applied to the frequency
converter or to the external control circuits. Exercise appropriate care when
working with the unit.
Voltage Measurement
When repairing a module one must always to remember that there might be live voltages on some
components such as capacitors. Therefore, before disconnecting the module from the cabinet, it
is important to measure the dc voltage with a multimeter.
The ACS800-104 module has an exceptionally high center of gravity. When performing
maintenance operations for the module, it is important to make sure that the module is pulled out
from the cabinet by using a service ramp (Figure 1) and that both support legs in the rear side of
the module are opened during the maintenance (Figure 2).

ESD
Always use ESD protection clothes, gloves, shoes and mat if possible. Avoid unnecessary
touching of the circuit boards.

ACS800-X7 Cabinet
Single drive serial numbers can be divided into two levels: cabinet level and module level (Figure
3). If for example the module has faulted, both cabinet and module level serial number is needed.
On the other hand, if f. ex. one of the control boards has a defect in it, only the cabinet level serial
number is needed for the control board cannot be traced to a module. The module serial number
is always in the same spot.

ACS800 MD Line-up
The multidrive serial number hierarchy is more complicated than the one for single drives (Figure
4). The first level is the device level witch is the MDs serial number. However this has little
significance for the statistics. That is why the first and second levels (device level and TL level)
are not needed for warranty reports. The serial number information needed in warranty report is
the unit level serial number and the module level serial number. If for example the module is
defected, both unit level serial number and module level serial number is needed. In Figure 4 this
means f. ex. the serial numbers from drive unit (ACS800-107-0400-7) and the module it contains
(ACS800-104-0400-7).
Sometimes the equipments are not in the same cabinet as the unit type code. Situation like this is
encountered with control boards. When again referring to Fig. 2 this could mean that the control
board RDCU-12C for unit ACS800-107-0400-7 is mounted to another locker. It must be bared in
mind that no matter where the control board is mounted, the important fact is that it controls the
mentioned unit. In this case only the unit level serial number is needed. The module serial number
is always in the same spot.

Practical Examples
There are some differences between the placing of the serial number stickers in different
cabinets, such as ACS800-X7 and ACS800MD. In general the serial number and type of the
ACS800-X7 cabinet can be found on the lower right side of the first cabinet door, that is, right

The ACS800-X7 serial number label can usually be found on outer surface of the door above the

is needed as well (Figure 6).

When visiting the site, it is very important to fill out the warranty report form carefully. All serial
numbers and type codes must be correct and the fault description has to be detailed enough. The
customer information is also important. It is very important to know what happened at the site.
Also any considerations about the possible abnormalities before the defect are to be reported. Try
to estimate the time how long the drive has been running. Remember to evaluate the conditions in
the electrical room as well. With the serial number information the manufacturer is able to access
detailed data about the drive.
We strongly recommend that InfoPaht warranty report template, available in Installed Base, would
be used for warranty reporting. Reports should be also uploaded to Installed Base after field
service to gather history data of individual drive service history.
If installed base and infopath is not used, then a report template, which is presented in following
pages, that is available in IHMM can be used instead.

It is best to test the module after maintenance. The most convenient way of doing this is to use
the ACS800-104 On-Site Tester manual (IHMM Document 3AFE 68806470).
Depending on the used option set, there are two possible configurations for the controlled fan.
The basic configuration consists only of AFPS and AFIN boards. However, if the module is
equipped with a card space heater (+C123) the configuration is a bit different because the
controlled fan boards are also equipped with a heating set.
3. Remove the broken board from the frame by unscrewing the 6 pcs M4 x 8 screws (torque
0.7 Nm) if the board is an AFPS board. If the board is an AFIN board, remove the 4 pcs
M4x8 combi torx screws (0.7 Nm).
a. If the module is equipped with a card space heating set (+C123) there will be four
support pillars in AFPS board and two in AFIN board.
b. If the board is AFPS-01C revision D or F, the board has an EMC shielding. When
replacing the older board (AFPS-01C rev. A F) with newer one (AFPS-11C) the
EMC shielding must be removed. Instructions for removing the shielding are shown
in chapter 7.1.1. When remounting the board, be sure that the fixing torque of the
screws (and support pillars) is the correct one (0.7 Nm).

2. Remove old AFPS-01C board from the inverter module by disconnecting board cable
connectors and loosing six (6) M4 torx combi screws.
In the picture 16 red arrows are pointing out the six (6) fixing screws that should be removed.
Be careful when removing the card. Small parts may fall down to the fan. Using some kind of
cover above the fan grill is advised.
3. Remove four (4) O-rings. In the picture 17 red arrows are pointing out four (4) rubber O-
rings on the static shield.
4. Remove the static shield and the four (4) round insulating sheets. In the picture 18 the
static shield is marked with green lines and the round insulation sheets with red arrows.
6. Install the AFPS-11C (Figure 19) to the mounting pillars. Mount the board with M4 combi
screws (0.7 Nm).
7. Connect the board cable connectors to X1 and X2. In the Figure 20, the red arrow is
pointing out the connector.
The ACS800-104 (R8i) module control unit is shown in Figure 22. Since the EMC performance
has been improved during the lifetime of the module, there exists some variance in the modules.
These improvements have affected the wiring of the control unit and it is important to know which
wire sets compatible with a certain layout. Some wire sets are listed in Table 5.
When replacing control unit boards, the correct torques for each board are listed in Table 6. In
addition, when replacing NRED-61C it is important to clean the old heat conduction paste well and
sterilize the area with industrial alcohol before replacing the new heat conduction paste.

the board into its place.

2. Clean the contact surface and the terminals of IGBT-module. Check that the contact
surface is not damaged.
3. Apply a thin and uniform layer of thermal grease (typ. thickness 50 –100 mm) to whole
contact area of IGBT-module with a roller or a rubber spatula. Amount of grease is
sufficient when bright contact surface of IGBT-module is not visible through the grease.
Check visually that there are no foreign particles among the spread grease.
4. Place a module to heatsink by hand and press it about 5 sec. Repeat phases 1 - 4 to every
IGBT-module before the next phase.
5. All the M5 screws must be tightened uniformly to specified mounting torque. For a good
thermal contact to the heatsink we recommend the following procedure of tightening the 8
screws:
6. After the tightening a small rim (1 – 4 mm) of grease must be seen around the mounted
module. This shows that amount of grease is sufficient. Extra grease is wiped away.
NOTE: The grease brand must be the same for all IGBT-modules in the drive.
