Corrective Actions

Over current
Abnormal increase
in current.

1. Check whether the motors horsepower corresponds to the

AC drive output power.

2. Check the wiring connections between the AC drive and

motor for possible short circuits.

3. Increase the Acceleration time (Pr.10, Pr.12).
4. Check for possible excessive loading conditions at the motor.
5. If there are any abnormal conditions when operating the AC

drive after short-circuit being removed, it should be sent back
to manufacturer.

Over voltage
The DC bus voltage
has exceeded its
maximum allowable
value.

1. Check whether the input voltage falls within the rated AC

drive input voltage.

2. Check for possible voltage transients.
3. Bus over-voltage may also be caused by motor regeneration.

Either increase the decel time or add an optional brake
resistor.

4. Check whether the required braking power is within the

specified limits.

Overheating
Heat sink
temperature too
high

1. Ensure that the ambient temperature falls within the specified

temperature range.

2. Make sure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.
3. Remove any foreign objects from the heatsinks and check for

possible dirty heat sink fins.

4. Check the fan and clean it.
5. Provide enough spacing for adequate ventilation.

Low voltage
The AC motor drive
detects that the DC
bus voltage has
fallen below its
minimum value.

1. Check whether the input voltage falls within the AC motor

drive rated input voltage range.

2. Check whether the motor has sudden load.
3. Check for correct wiring of input power to R-S-T (for 3-phase

models) without phase loss.

Overload
The AC motor drive
detects excessive
drive output current.

1. Check whether the motor is overloaded.
2. Reduce torque compensation setting in Pr.54.
3. Take the next higher power AC motor drive model.
NOTE: The AC motor drive can withstand up to 150% of the

rated current for a maximum of 60 seconds.

Overload 1
Internal electronic
overload trip

1. Check for possible motor overload.
2. Check electronic thermal overload setting.
3. Use a higher power motor.
4. Reduce the current level so that the drive output current does

not exceed the value set by the Motor Rated Current Pr.52.

Overload 2
Motor overload.

1. Reduce the motor load.
2. Adjust the over-torque detection setting to an appropriate

setting.
