Chapter 1 - Introduction and Safety
The manual mustbe thoroughly read andunderstoodbefore maintenance
work on the ACS 6000 is started.
The manual is addressed to qualified persons who are responsible for
maintaining and servicing the ACS 6000. Hence all general and safety
instructions given in the ACS 6000 User's Manual must be complied with.
Danger: The ACS 6000 is a high voltage device.
High voltage can cause physical injury and death.
Maintenance, parts replacement and other work on the ACS 6000 must
only be carried out by qualified personnel in compliance with local regula-
tions.
Danger: Do not access the ACS 6000 or work on the motor or the power
cables, if the drive system is energized and not properly grounded!
After switching off the mains and after the motor has come to a stop, wait
approximately 5 minutes for the DC link capacitors to discharge. The light
GND.- SWITCH UNLOCKED must be on before grounding the ACS 6000.
Danger: Make sure that the main power cannot be applied by accident.
Rack out the main circuit breaker and lock it.
Danger: Some loads can cause the motor to rotate!
Therefore, always disconnect, short-circuit or block the motor before work
is started.

Danger: Before power is applied to the drive, check that:
• Mains and motor connections are ok
• Auxiliary power and control cable connections are ok
• No tools or other foreign objects are left in the cabinet
• All doors including the door of the power cable section are closed

Chapter 2 - Checking IGCTs and Diodes
IGCTsanddiodes ofphasemodulescan onlybetestedaftertheconverter
has been deenergized and grounded.
Danger: The ACS 6000 is a high violtage device.
Make sure that the drivehas been completely deenergized andthat power
cannot be applied by accident.
Failure to do so may result in injury or death.
2.2.1 Required Tools and Accessories
To test IGCTs the following is needed:
• Fiber optic cable (approx. 2 m long)
• Multimeter
2.2.2 Test Procedure
The IGCT to be tested can stay in the phase module. The test is carried
out in two steps:
Step 1 1Deenergize and ground the ACS 6000 but leave the power supply for
the gate units on.
2Check the IGCT for burned components. In this casethe whole IGCT
must be replaced. Check that both LEDs are on. See
Figure 2-1
(
Figure 2-1 depicts the horizontal fitting position of IGCTs as applied
in 7/9 MVA phase modules).

Note: When checking be careful not to disconnect the fiber optic cable
while the IGCT is energized to prevent an undefined control state.
3Test the IGCT by measuring the voltage between gate and cathode.
Note: Whenmeasuring be carefulnot toshorten gate and cathode/anode
of the IGCT. A short circuit will destroy the semiconductor.
Figure 2-2 Testing IGCTs
To avoid shortening gate and cathode:
• Use short tipped probes
• Hold one probe against the cooler on the cathode
side and the otherprobe against ascrew head on the
gate side (see
Figure 2-2 ).
Result of the measurement: approx. -20 VDC (see
Figure 2-2 ).
4Disconnect the power supply of the gate unit (one of the following
circuit breakers in COU: -Q1041, -Q1042, -Q1043, see wiring dia-
gram).
5Wait approx. 20 sec. for the capacitors of the gate unit to discharge.
Step 2 1Verify that the power supply of the gate unit is off.
2Switch off the auxiliary power supply pertaining to the INT board in
the cabinet.
3Connect a temporary fiber optic cable at one end to the gate unit and
at the other end to a permanent light transmitter of the INT board.
