The drive keypad shows percentage values for the replacement parts to help you know when you must replace those components. Use the monitors in Table 1 to check replacement periods. When the monitor value is 100%, the component is at the end of its useful life and there is an increased risk of drive malfunction. Yaskawa recommends that you check the maintenance period regularly to make sure that you get the maximum performance life of the drive.
