4.5 Start-up

Make sure that the functional test of the brake is only carried

out when the motor is at rest, has been disconnected from the

supply and is secured against inadvertent restarting.

Surface temperatures of >80 °C may

occur in the braking system. For this reason,

no temperature-sensitive parts such as normal cables or electronic

components may be routed to or fixed to the braking system.

Provide appropriate protection against accidental contact, if

necessary. If the motor shaft needs to be turned during adjusting

work release the braking system by electric or by means of

manual release, if necessary.

4.6 Maintenance

When doing any inspection or maintenance

work, make sure that:
a. No inadvertent starting of the motor is

53
GTW7、8、9/9S Series Operation And Service Manual

possible;
b. No load moment is acting on the brake drum or on the
motor;
c. After completion of the inspection and maintenance work,

5 Commissioning with inverter

5.1 General

The commissioning with the inverter work must be done by

qualified electric technician.

Due to there may be have shake in

running-in work, please fix the PMS elevator traction machine in
a fixed frame.

55
GTW7、8、9/9S Series Operation And Service Manual

5.2 Checking before usage

Before start work make sure that the

traction machine, encoder and brake is
connect correct. And do not forget the
insulation and earthing.
Check the power capability and the earthing cable are correct.
The temporarily support power is not recommend, and it must
have the safe isolation from supply.

5.3 Motor parameter setting

Usually when running in with inverter divided into two parts:

PMS parameters and system position (PG) learning. You may

need same necessary parameters to set into the inverter on this

process.

There are two different methods to set the parameters into the

inverter:

a. Set the factory value in nameplate or in operation manual

to the inverter direct.

56
GTW7、8、9/9S Series Operation And Service Manual

b. Setting the basic parameters then use the inverter motor

learning function to lean the other parameters.

Because there are so many different inverter in the market, and

them have different name, expressive manner or unit to one

parameter. You can see the detail of the motor learning method in

the inverter instruction manual.

5.4 Inverter self-learning condition and

method

Inverter self-learning is a very important part in running in

work, and it will have much matter with the traction machine

running steady and safe in future.

Following condition must be insure before start the

self-learning work:

a. No load in sheave (before hang up the rope);

b. Electrify the brake and the sheave can running free;

57
GTW7、8、9/9S Series Operation And Service Manual

c. Encored mechanical install and signals connection

correct;

d. Familiar with the performance of the inverter you use.

In order to make the commissioning work process successfully,

please do it according to following steps:

a. Electrify the inverter, set the parameter of PMS elevator

traction machine and encoder. Then turning the sheave in

both directions to check whether the inverter speed feed

back is correct. If the inverter court failure, please check

the connection and the setting.

b. Start the self-learning function then read out the

parameter, and do is about 10~15 times the tolerance

must with 10%.

The motor speed abnormal or vibration

too big may happen during this process.

This may be cause by the wrong connection of motor phase. You

can do it again after replace the discretional two phases.

58
GTW7、8、9/9S Series Operation And Service Manual

There may have some difference in different inverter

self-learning process, you can do it according to the inverter

instruction manual requests.

c. Set the motor run at both direction at a low speed to

check whether it running steady. And it can start and stop

under the inverter commands.

d. Set the inverter parameter to final state and let it running

in the rated speed to check the no-load current is normal.

6 Encode installation

6.1 General

Installation, checking and replace of the

encoder must be down by qualified
maintainer at power cut state.
