How to solve the problem if your Servo drive and servo motor Soak in water?

Recently, abnormal weather conditions have increased. The heavy water in Asia and Europe, typhoons and other abnormal weather have brought harm to the electronic control system of the equipment, and even water ingress and water ingress have occurred. Now I will introduce the simple treatment method of water ingress and soaking in the electronic control system. This is only for minor cases, and for serious cases, it is recommended to return to the factory for processing.

As you all know, the control system is mainly composed of upper computer (display), calculation (program), execution (servo system) and detection feedback. What I mainly introduce is the execution part, that is, the servo drive and the servo motor.

Servo drive treatment:
AC servo drive

1. Clean up surface water and dirt.

2. Use a fan or hair dryer (normal temperature) to dry the water.

3. Power on for 3 minutes. If possible, you can use a voltage regulator to add direct current and slowly increase the pressure from low to high.

4. If there is no abnormality during the power-on process, start the work.

Servo motor processing:
Servo Motor

1. Clean the surface, especially the sealing part.

2. Dry the accumulated water (do not disassemble the motor)

3. Measure the resistance between UVW phases and the relative ground resistance, and the resistance value <50MΩ is unqualified.

4. The encoder is connected to the drive, and the drive does not start when it is powered on. Rotate the motor manually to detect various signals of the encoder.

If the water ingress is serious, it is recommended to return to the factory for treatment. Because sealing, insulation, encoders, etc. all require professional treatment.

In order to express a little support for our friends in Henan and Europe, there is no limit to the warranty period of the Weikeda products that are soaked in water in Henan. The drive is free of charge, and the servo motor only charges the material cost.

The flood is ruthless, and people are compassionate, and Wikoda is with you.
