Lifetime Alarm (LIFE)
For models with a main circuit capacitor, cooling fan, and inverter capacity of 18.5 kW or more, if any
of the capacitors including electrolytic capacitors exceeds the life judgment standard, the LIFE termi-
nal (30: Lifetime alarm) is turned ON. In addition, the lifetime alarm (alarm code: LiF) can be output as
a minor alarm. (For details, refer to 7-8-26 Light Alarm Selection on page
7-108.)

Remarks
Main circuit ca-
pacitor
Measure the discharge time of the
main circuit capacitor when the
main power supply is shut of
f and
calculate the capacity of the main
circuit capacitor.
It is judged that the end of life has
been reached when capacity has
reached 85% of the factory default
capacitor capacity or the main cir-
cuit capacitor capacity (pre-meas-
ured at startup) in a user normal
operation state.

The time during which voltage is
applied to the main circuit capacitor
(the time during which the main
power supply is ON) is counted. Al-
so, the time is corrected by meas-
uring the capacity of the main cir-
cuit capacitor. When the operation
time exceeds 87,000 hours (10
years)

The time during which voltage is
applied to the electrolytic capacitor
is counted. Also, the elapsed time
is corrected by the ambient temper-
ature. When the operation time ex-
ceeds 87,000 hours (10 years), it is
judged that the end of life has
reached.
