Maintenance
- Routine inspection: Check LED status, connector tightness and dust accumulation every 6–12 months
- Clean module surface with dry compressed air; liquid solvent cleaning is strictly prohibited
- ESD protection must be adopted during disassembly, anti-static wristband required
- If gate drive fault alarm occurs, power off and inspect power output circuit and IGCT gate cable connection
- Do not energize the module if PCB corrosion, burn marks or condensation are found
- We support function testing, refurbishment and spare replacement service for this KUC711AE101 gate power supply module
Installation
- Cut off all high voltage and auxiliary 24VDC power supply of medium voltage drive, confirm zero voltage and implement lockout-tagout procedure.
- Wear anti-static wristband and insulating gloves for high voltage equipment maintenance.
- Open MV drive power cell cabinet door, release the fixing fasteners of old KUC711AE101 module.
- Disconnect gate signal cables and 24VDC power wires one by one, mark all cables for reconnection.
- Install new module and fasten mounting bolts.
- Reconnect 24VDC power and IGCT gate unit signal cables strictly according to marking.
- Restore auxiliary power supply, perform module self-test and gate circuit continuity check.
- Carry out low voltage commissioning, verify gate drive power and fault alarm function before high voltage power-on test.
