Commissioning
Pre-start-up Inspection ATTENTION: Ensure main power has been disconnected and
locked out before commissioning the unit. Verify with a hot
stick or meter that all circuits are voltage-free. Failure to do so
may result in electric shock causing severe burns, injury or death.
• Visually inspect all bolted power connections to ensure they are secure. Do
not apply a wrench to any connection unless it is obvious that the connection
has not been tightened (over torquing will cause damage to bolts as well as
components). If a bolt must be tightened, the following torques must be used:
¼-in. hardware 6 ft-lb (8 N-m)
5/16-in. hardware 12 ft-lb (16 N-m)
3/8-in. hardware 20 ft-lb (27 N-m)
½-in. hardware 48 ft-lb (65 N-m)
Important: If torquing a cable connection to the top of a capacitor fuse or
directly to a capacitor terminal, a reduced torque of 10 ft-lb (13.5 N-m) must
be used to avoid over-stressing the capacitor. In addition, if torquing
connection at the top of a capacitor fuse, hold the lower nut in place while
tightening the upper nut.
• Visually inspect all power wires and lugs for any signs of damage from
assembly or shipping. Contact Rockwell Automation immediately if any
damage is discovered (see page 1 for phone numbers).
• Check for proper functioning of all door interlocks (clip type and key-type).
They must prevent medium voltage doors from being opened if there is
power applied to the filter. Contact Rockwell Automation immediately if
any malfunction is discovered (see inside cover page for phone numbers).
ATTENTION: Ensure the mechanical interlocking
mechanisms are in place and functioning properly before
energizing the equipment. Improper interlocking could expose
personnel to energized components causing severe burns, injury
or death.
