PowerFlex 700 Phase Monitor Relay Replacement
SK-G9-RELAY-F9
This publication provides the steps needed to replace a PowerFlex 700 Frame 9
Phase Monitor Relay. This relay verifies correct phasing of the three-phase blower
that is used for drive cooling.
Before proceeding, read 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 Guarding Against
Electrostatic Damage, publication 8000-4.5.2 or any other applicable ESD
protection handbook.
ATTENTION: Only qualified personnel familiar with adjustable frequency
AC drives and associated machinery should perform maintenance/repair of
the system. Failure to comply may result in personal injury and/or
equipment damage.
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage on
the bus capacitors has discharged before performing any work on the
drive. Measure the DC bus voltage at the +DC & –DC terminals of the
Power Terminal Block (refer to the User Manual for location). The voltage
must be zero.

PowerFlex 700 Phase Monitor Relay Replacement
Type A
Drives Manufactured before January 20, 2011
(see below)

Identifying the Relay
Two types of Phase Monitor Relays are used in Frame 9 drives depending on the
date of manufacture. Refer to Figure 1
and determine the relay type currently
installed in your drive. Next, locate the corresponding replacement procedure.

Replacing the Relay
Type A - Drives Manufactured before January 20, 2011
1. Verify that all power to the drive has been removed.
2. Usi ng Figure 1
A.” If not, refer to the procedure on page 3
3. Locate terminals L1, L2 and L3 on the existing relay. Verify that the wires
connected to each terminal are labeled correctly, then remove the wires.
4. Cut and insulate the two wires connected to A1 and A2. These wires will
not be used with the replacement relay. Ensure that the wire ends are well
insulated using wire nuts and tape. Secure the loose ends to the wire
harness.
5. The wires just cut and insulated are routed to the “120V” and “N”
terminals of TB-9. Trace these wires back to TB-9 and disconnect. Insulate
the ends and secure to the wire harness.
, verify that the relay installed in your drive matches “Type
.
ATTENTION: To guard against possible equipment damage and/
or personal injury, ensure that the wires previously disconnected
from the relay and TB-9 are thoroughly insulated (using wire nuts
and tape) and secured to the wire harness.
