One Simple way to check if an AC drive is good

[@Theandrew189]

Awesome video. I always wondered how to do some kind of test like this to support me saying, " Drive is bad boss".

[@canaldamanutencao4446]

Very cool. Very well explained, I would like to congratulate you for the initiative.

[@elmoncho72]

Great video that helps me to understand deeper in VFDs drive field

[@NLocus1]

Excellent Video. If you have a problem with your control board, this may also be a cause of IGBT Gate short-circuited. Beware. The gates could not be accessed from outside, dismantle and check.

[@jesusortiz6842]

You are incredible. Thanks for teaching us.

Thanks so much i am grateful for this online course very much appreciate bless

Very useful courses! Thanks!

[@laworder6092]

Thank you sir. Well explained I salut for your generosity.

[@electronictech785]

So nice of you

excellent video. Thank you. Very thorough explanation.

Great explanation thanks . How we test hi hight volts for leak iGBT

Thanks a million for your great explanation and effort. Kind regards.

[@haroldlanglois8986]

Great explanation, very understandable. thanks

[@aghvacappliancerepair4120]

Awesome video man, gave a great explanation on how to check the bridge rec and igbt, I will defiantly be using this method from time to time.

[@cheyguvera9680]

Great explaination sir, god bless you

[@AA-hu9mh]

Awesome explanation 👏🏻

[@COFFEE23409]

Excellent video. I never considered that method of testing.

[@sudhirpatil3434]

Very nice explanation!

[@mattivester7353]

Could you discuss what the DC Buss terminals are? I see there are 4 terminals.

[@wirenutt57]

How about checking the rectifier diodes with reverse polarity? You checked the forward voltage drop, but if you switch the leads, you should get an open. If you get anything other than high resistance, the diode could be shorted. Take into account the fact that the huge filter caps will take a bit to charge, and you might see a temporary short because of that.

Have you ever revisited your comment since you posted it? I know it must have made sense to you when you posted it but think about what you said. Wakodahatchee Chris

Dear Friend, Thank you for your video, i would like to know that i don't have 3 phase 380v.line in my workshop. Only 220v. available, how i can check my vfd after repair it? Plz let me know it will be very useful to me. Thanks

Anything different w allen bradley 4's and 40's with this kind of testing?? Also thank you for all your info

Thanks for your tutorial .. gob bless sir..

[@supertech2853]

Thank you for the video it is very helpful

[@dizzolve]

can you test when powered up

[@samsirjaafar364]

Great explaination. Tqvm.

[@MDsayed-xz7df]

I have a question sir. ig5a lsis vfd. It’s showing low voltage when i run the drive. What should i do sir? We are audience waiting for your kind information. Thank you sir.

[@samsirjaafar364]

Good Evening. I have washing machine (laundry) using single phase input with 3 phase motor. My priblem is.... The motor body tempreture very hot, touch by hand. Than sometime, motor not running. In this case, motor problem or VFD problem? Plesse advise.

[@electronictech785]

A single phase being turned back to 3 phase is already not the best way to drive a motor but with that being said, I would check the motor out first if its heating up.

[@donaldpatan930]

Thank you another day another learn

[@gatedavid95]

Good explanation

[@ksteelcambodia595]

i have an AC motor inverter EDS2000 model. and i followed your instructions to test it. the result showed the same as in your video instructions, but when i power it up and press RUN, it showed error E013. could you recommend something?

[@electronictech785]

I don't have the manual for the drive. What does the E013 fault?

[@janmalesela2510]

Hi, this test can be conducted in a new vfd. Or ii need to power it first .then disconnect the cables . I tested in a new vfd but everything is open. That's my question. Again what if the cable is faulty or motor . One say whole the cable was faulty the vfd was showing dc bus over voltage can you explain that to ne

[@electronictech785]

Yes, new and used. You are checking the bridge rectifier and the IGBTs. This test is not for testing cables so the line input cables and motor cables should be disconnected. DC Bus over voltage means that the voltage on the Bus has exceeded the VFDs threshold.

[@janmalesela2510]

@@electronictech785 hi sir, I tested new vfd everything is one. Testing diode forward bias is open. Testing Igbt is open. Now I was just asking need to charge the resistor or not .

[@ricardofelizco8323]

thxs for video learning...can you give some information and application of SEMITRNS M SKKR400/0.2-BVR for VFD design and function..thank you and best regards Sir

pls i did my static check and my igbt module is good but yet i didnt get power output even when the drive is running using the local mode

[@joycandromojumdar]

This inverter schematics diagram please.

[@jerrellmahan4814]

Most of the VFDs sold today don't provide the + and - terminals for the DC bus. How can the diodes be checked without the + and - terminals?

[@electronictech785]

In that case, you'll have to get access to the bus caps which would require you to take it apart. The only time we see VFDs with no + and - terminals are the small Horse Power VFDs.

[@jerrellmahan4814]

@@electronictech785That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for your help.

is this want I use to work with dealing with Variable Frequency Drives ?

The higher horsepower VFD is profitable. You have to know what industry and where they are at.

I can't seem to remember is 3 phase " each leg is 70 degrees or 30 degrees out of phase with each other " ? chit seems I wouldn't for get and maybe I wrong.

[@electronictech785]

For a three-phase AC voltage source, the phase shift is 120° with respect to each other

[@jsteele42378]

@@electronictech785 Yep sorry I now remember thanks so much ! I was thinking that this was the reason that several motors and compresses did need starter cap if you had 3 phase.
