Capacitors and Current Feature
    |
Input Capacitor per Phase     | Output Capacitor per Phase     |
---|---|---|
    | C in nominal     | C out nominal     |
300kVA     | 1 x 300µF     | 2 x 400µF     |
400kVA     | 2 x 200µF     | 2 x 500µF     |
500kVA     | 2 x 300µF     | 3 x 400µF     |
Without Supply Check
Sub-Assembly Visual Check
- Check for the presence of liquid traces on the exterior of each capacitor. Refer to Illustration 2 for examples of good and bad capacitors.
- Check that the power connection terminals are straight, even, parallel, and tight. Refer to Illustration 2 for examples of good and bad capacitors.
- Check the expansion area for expansion and distortion. Refer to Illustration 2 for examples of good and bad capacitors.
- Check the capacitor value with an ohmmeter. (OK with C= C nonimal +/- 5 percent )
- Make a short circuit on the capacitor to discharge the capacitor. Check the capacitor with an ohmmeter. The measurement must be greater than 1MW charge. When you reverse the polarization of the ohmmeter the value change less than - 1MW.

Current value chart
Measurement Conditions :
- AC NORMAL = 400V 50Hz
- Inverter = 400V 50Hz
- Q5N = open (sans charge / without load )
Note: The measurements values have to be the same on each phase
Note: Table 2 gives the full capacitor current value
    | INPUT CAPACITOR CURRENT per PHASE     | OUTPUT CAPACITOR per PHASE     | |
---|---|---|---|
    | PFC (in manual mode)     |     | |
    | OFF     | ON     |     |
300kVA     | 23A     | 60A     | 76A     |
400kVA     | 30A     | 76A     | 98A     |
500kVA     | 46A     | 122A     | 135A (1)     |
( 1 ) | In this case: if only one capacitor is faulty, the current will be around 118A (and not 135/3) |
Inverter-AC Bypass Sub-Assembly Check
Sub-Assembly Visual Check
- Check for traces of arcing or the presence of a short-circuit.
- Check the power connections.
- Check the plug-in connectors.
- Check for the presence of dust on the circuit board.
