Solution:
Due to the complexity of this rebuild the instruction is split in 2 parts.

1st part: Mechanical part

1. Unscrew the lid screw

2. Carefully dismantle the two-piece shell

3. Assemble the filter to the interface

bracket as indicated at the figure beside
A. Fix the filter to the bracket by
using screw A (incl. notched
washer, flat washer and nut)

C
A
B

B. Use screws B & C later in the

instruction (point 10)

Page 4 of 12

Code / Ref. Nr: 530231

4. Position the inverter on the filter and fix

them by the three M4x12 screws

5. Connect the wires from the filter

towards the main power input clamps of
the inverter as shown (L1 brown, N blue
and earth in one of the countermarked
points).

Before starting the following operation, disconnect the machine from the
mains and wait 10 minutes for the capacitors to discharge.

6. Remove the right door by unscrewing

the 4 screws.

2. Connect the power supply (phase and

neutral) to the Mitsubishi filter clamp

/25

/30

3. Connect motor wires on the indicated

spots (see picture beside). Its highly
recommended to respect the added
marks (recommended by point 7 of the
mechanical part of this instruction).
4. Due to the moved position of the power
output clamps it is required to open the
wiring duct and to extend the wires by
removing some cable strips

.
5. Connect the speed signals like shown
on in the figure beside. Its required to
respect the indicated purpose for each
wire. The purpose of each wire is
indicated at the connector of original
inverter

6. Connect the protection earth wire to the

inverter by one of the two foreseen
screws

Connection available for

earth and supply
7. Connect wires of current protection relay
on terminals A (grey wire) and C (orange
wire = common) of the new inverter.

8. Verify whether all wire connections are

made. In case there are still unconnected
wires, please revise the above described
instruction steps

Connection for current

protection relay
(terminals A and C)

Be very careful if the

above instruction is not
executed as described,
there is a high risk of
damage of the unit
and/or risk of
electrocution with risk
of death

9. Remount the inverter shells properly and

tighten the removed screw into its original
state

Code / Ref. Nr: 530231

10. Set the Inverter parameters

To make the inverter applicable for the machine you need to modify several parameters. The parameter
settings are depending on the type of machine (/25 or /30). To modify the required parameters you need to
proceed following steps:

In case error 4 appears on the inverter - to enable the change of certain parameters you need to select the
PU-mode by the button PU/EXT (step 2 as described above).

Verification check-up:
1. Switch the mains on, so the unit is able to operate.
2. Press the start and ironing pedal, by this the roller must run in the normal ironing direction. If you are not
sure about the normal ironing direction: look towards the gear which is at the ironer PCB side. In case the
gear us turning clock wise, the way of rotation is correct. If the way turning of the gear is counter clock
wise, shut down the mains immediately and switch 2 phase-lines at the motor power supply at the
inverter (see also point 3 of the electrical part of the instruction)
3. When above step has been checked and found correct, activate the safety bar manually. The roll has to
slow down until reverse. Meanwhile the basin has to rise until the non-active position.
4. Try to change the speed on the ironer control board from 1 to 7. If the speed of rotation of the roller
changes accordingly, the installation of the new inverter is successful. If the roll doesnt rotate or rotates
at a wrong speed, check the speed signal connections (described at point 5 of the electrical part of this
instruction)
5. In case the complete verification has been done and the installation has been found correct, the
installation can be considered as successful. To end the job we recommend to bind & organise the wiring
properly and mount the side panel back in its original position.

In case you have further technical questions, do not hesitate to take contact with the after sales department of
PRIMUS (references at the front page of this document).
