### Inverter Drives (Course 580)

#### About The Course

Manufacturers of inverter drives report that of the units returned to them as faulty, up to 80% do not reveal any defects. Such returns are more a result of incorrect programming and/or fault diagnosis by maintenance personnel. This comprehensive course is designed to counter such difficulties by enabling the maintenance engineer to correctly set up, maintain and carry out effective fault-finding on inverter drive systems. Unlike some product-specific courses, this course is substantially generic - effectively covering most of the variable speed drive systems found in industry today and providing a thorough understanding of drive operation within the context of industrial systems.

#### Course Participants

Suitable for anyone who is required to maintain or configure inverter drives (electricians, instrument technicians, etc). Whilst a knowledge of basic electrical principles is desirable, no prior knowledge of motor theory or electronics is necessary.

#### Course Presentation

The practicalities of configuring, fault-finding and maintenance are demonstrated and then practiced by participants on purpose-built training rigs allowing considerable experience to be gained on a representative range of proprietary drive systems. The course is supported by comprehensive course notes. Candidates gain experience of using Danfoss, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Omron and Allen Bradley drive systems.

#### Learning Outcomes

On completion of the course, participants will be able to

- apply safe working practices when working with variable speed drives
- demonstrate an understanding of the principles of operation of a range of inverter drive systems
- correctly configure, operate and monitor drive systems
- identify and correct configuration errors
- differentiate between drive faults, motor faults and power faults
- differentiate between control / power circuit drive faults
- appreciate the concepts of fieldbus communications and SCADA systems.
