Processor over-heating. Verify proper airflow over the
heat-sink of the drive. Remove any obstructions. If
the problem, still persists replace the drive.
7 HI-POT TESTING
There many different types of dielectric testers available. When selecting one to use ensure it
has the following features:
• Can test to voltages up to 4000VDC or higher.
• Can read leakage currents less than 10µA.
• Has Arc Detection available.
Recommended test settings:
• APPLIED VOLTAGE: 3650 VDC
• MAXIMUM LEAKAGE CURRENT: Contact Applications Engineer
• RAMP UP TIME: 8 Seconds
• DWELL TIME: 5 Seconds
• RAMP DOWN: 8 Seconds
Test Procedure:
• Setup test on a clean and dry non-conductive surface.
• Ensure samples are handled properly and using ESD precautions.
• Verify the dielectric tester is configured per “Recommended test settings”.
• Contact Application Engineer for more details on connections and wiring setup.
• Execute Test.
• Note and record the maximum leakage current during the dwell period.
• Once test is complete, safely disconnect the component and store it properly.
