position . Configuration is only possible in stop mode with the speed controller locked. Refer to the
document provided with the card.
Assistance during operation
See the indicator lamps explained in the “Introduction”.
Maintenance
Before working on the speed controller, switch off the power supply and wait for the
capacitors to discharge (approximately 3 minutes) : the green LED on the front panel of the
speed controller is no longer illuminated.
CAUTION : the DC voltage at the + and - terminals or PA and PB terminals may reach 900 V depending
on the line voltage.
If a problem arises during setup or operation, ensure that the recommendations relating to the environment,
mounting and connections have been observed. Refer to the Altivar User's Manual.
Servicing
The Altivar 58 does not require any preventive maintenance. It is nevertheless advisable to perform the
following regularly :
- check the condition and tightness of connections
- ensure that the temperature around the unit remains at an acceptable level, and that ventilation is
effective (average service life of fans : 3 to 5 years depending on the operating conditions)
-remove any dust from the speed controller
Assistance with maintenance
The first fault detected is stored and displayed on the display module screen : the speed controller locks, the
red LED lights, and fault relay R1 trips.
Clearing the fault
Cut the power supply to the speed controller in the event of a non-resettable fault.
Locate the cause of the fault in order to eliminate it.
Reconnect the power supply : this clears the fault if it has disappeared.
In some cases, there may be an automatic restart once the fault has disappeared, if this function has been
programmed.
