5.3.6 Replacement of parts
The inverter consists of many electronic parts such as semiconductor devices.
The following parts may deteriorate with age because of their structures or physical characteristics, leading to
reduced performance or failure of the inverter. For preventive maintenance, the parts must be changed
periodically.
Replacement Parts of the Inverter
Part Name Standard Replacement Interval Description
Cooling fan 2 to 3 years Change (as required)
Smoothing capacitor in main circuit 5 years Change (as required)
Smoothing capacitor on control board 5 years Change the board (as required)
Relays Change as required
Note: For part replacement, contact the nearest MGI office.

Cooling fan
The cooling fan cools heat-generating parts such as the main circuit semiconductor devices. The life of the
cooling fan bearing is usually 10,000 to 35,000 hours. Hence, the cooling fan must be changed every 2 to 3
years if the inverter is run continuously. When unusual noise and/or vibration is noticed during inspection, the
cooling fan must be changed immediately.
