Lithium grease → Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA)

– Detach cover -T10643/2- -A- and cover -T10643/1- -B-.

– Clean sealing surfaces on three-phase current drive -arrow- and power and control electronics for electric drive using cleaning solution “D 291 091 A1”.

Note

The cleaning solution “D 291 091 A1” is used to activate the surface before the sealant is applied and is essential for the proper functionality of the sealing bond.

Important

● Allow flash-off time of 10 minutes for sealing surfaces.

Apply sealant for three-phase current drive:

Sealant → Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA)

– Cut off nozzle on tube at front marking so that nozzle is 3 mm in diameter.

– Apply sealant -arrow- onto clean sealing surface of three-phase current drive, as shown in illustration.

Important

● Thickness of sealant bead: 2 to 3 mm.

● Install power electronics, and tighten bolts within 5 minutes after the sealant has been applied.

– Position power electronics -1- on three-phase current drive. Take note of electrical connector when doing this.

– Screw in bolts -arrows- evenly and in diagonal sequence hand-tight.

– Tighten bolts -arrows-.

Prepare anti-twist protection -T10614- for tightening bus bar bolts:

– Loosen bolts -C- for retaining plates -B- 1 turn.

Important

● It must be possible to move the retaining plates -B-.

– Secure anti-twist protection -A- hand-tight to three-phase current drive using bolts of cover -arrows-, as shown in illustration.

– To tighten bus bar bolts, push retaining plates -B- towards left, and screw in bolts -C- hand-tight.

– Tighten bolts -arrows- for bus bars -1-.

– Unscrew bolts -arrows-, and remove anti-twist protection -A-.

Install cover:

– Clean sealing surfaces on three-phase current drive -arrow- and cover using cleaning solution “D 291 091 A1”.

Note

The cleaning solution “D 291 091 A1” is used to activate the surface before the sealant is applied and is essential for the proper functionality of the sealing bond.

Important

● Allow flash-off time of 10 minutes for sealing surfaces.

– Apply sealant -arrow- onto clean sealing surface of three-phase current drive, as shown in illustration.

Sealant → Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA)

Important

● Thickness of sealant bead: 2 to 3 mm.

● Install cover and tighten bolts within 5 minutes after the sealant has been applied.

– Start centre hex studs -1- and bolts -arrows-, and tighten them. Tightening sequence → Rep. gr.93; Assembly overview – power and control electronics for electric drive [JX1]
