PowerFlex® DC Drive and Stand-Alone Regulator (SAR)
Control Circuit Board
Installation Instructions
ATTENTION: Only qualified personnel familiar with DC drives
and associated machinery should plan or implement the installation,
start-up and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to
comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, ensure that all
power to the drive has been removed before performing the
following.
ATTENTION: This drive contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)
sensitive parts and assemblies. Static control precautions are required
when installing, testing, servicing or repairing this assembly.
Component damage may result if ESD control procedures are not
followed. If you are not familiar with static control procedures,
reference A-B publication 8000-4.5.2, “Guarding Against
Electrostatic Damage” or any other applicable ESD protection
handbook.

What You Need to Do
Step 1:Save the
Parameter Configuration
Step 2:Remove Power
from the Drive
To install the Control board:
❐ Step 1: Save the Parameter Configuration
❐ Step 2: Remove Power from the Drive
❐ Step 3: Remove the Drive Covers
❐ Step 4: Remove the Communication Adapter and EMI Shield
❐ Step 5: Remove the Existing Connections and Option Board(s)
❐ Step 6: Remove the Existing Control Board
❐ Step 7: Install the New Control Board
❐ Step 8: Wire the Control Board
❐ Step 9: Document the Change
If possible, save the drive and adapter parameter configuration to a Human
Interface Module (HIM) Set or by up loading the drive and adapter parameters
to an offline database file using DriveExecutive™. Refer to the PowerF lex DC Digital Drive User Manual, publication 20P-UM001
the HIM or the on-line Help provided with DriveExecutive.
ATTENTION: Remove power before making or breaking cable
connections. When you remove or insert a cable connector with
power applied, an electrical arc may occur. An electrical arc can
cause personal injury or property damage by:
, for information on using
• sending an erroneous signal to your system’s field devices,
causing unintended machine motion
• causing an explosion in a hazardous environment
Electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the
module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical
resistance.
Remove and lock-out all incoming power to the drive.

Frame A Drives and the Stand-Alone Regulator
1. Disconnect the Device Peripheral Interface (DPI) cable from the HIM
assembly (if present).
2. Loosen the captive screws that secure the bottom front cover to the drive,
then slide the cover down and off the drive chassis.

3. Press in on the sides at the bottom edge of the top cover and pull the cover
toward you until the cover is partially off the drive chassis. Then pull the top
of the cover toward you until the mounting pins align with the keyholes in
the top of the cover. Then carefully lift the cover off of the drive chassis.
Important: The HIM assembly is connected to the control board via a
communication cable. Carefully set the top cover down next
to the chassis.
4. Continue with Disconnect the HIM Communication Cable

Frame D Drives
1. Disconnect the DPI cable from the HIM assembly (if present).
2. Loosen, but do not remove, the four hexalobular screws that secure each of
the three covers to the control pan on the drive, then slide the covers up and
off the drive chassis. Tightening torque is noted in the illustration for
reassembly.
Important: A communication cable connects the HIM assembly to the
control board mounted on the control pan. Therefore, the
middle control pan cover and HIM assembly cannot be fully
removed from the drive until the cable is disconnected.
