If you receive a SENSOR FAULT indicating a broken sensor on your CaptiveAire Fan, it means the temperature sensor isn't reading the temperature correctly or is shorted. Verify the wiring to terminals TxA and TxB on the board, as well as the wiring to the sensor. If the wiring is correct, replace the sensor with a 10Kohm thermistor.
What to do if my CaptiveAire Fan motor is overloaded?
If the motor of your CaptiveAire Fan is overloaded, verify that the fan is rotating in the correct direction as indicated on the rotation label. Inspect the motor wiring, comparing it with the wiring diagram located on the fan motor. Also, ensure that the overload in the VFD is set to the motor's FLA value.
Why is there insufficient airflow from my CaptiveAire Fan?
If your CaptiveAire Fan has insufficient airflow, check the motor wiring against the wiring diagram on the fan motor. Ensure there is a straight, clear path for air under the fan. Also, increase the fan RPM, being careful not to overload the motor.
How to reduce excessive vibration and noise in my CaptiveAire Fan?
If your CaptiveAire Fan is experiencing excessive vibration and noise, the potential causes include a damaged or unbalanced blade (which would need replacement), gears needing lubrication or replacement (lubricate or replace as necessary), or the fan speed being too high (reduce fan RPM).
What causes an OVER AMP FAULT on a CaptiveAire Fan and how to fix it?
If you're getting an OVER AMP FAULT on your CaptiveAire Fan, it could be due to several reasons. The fan speed might be too high, so try reducing the RPM. Also, check the motor wiring against the wiring diagram on the fan motor to ensure it's correct. Lastly, the overload in the VFD might be set too low, so set it to the motor's FLA value.
Why isn't my CaptiveAire Fan cooling the room properly?
If the room temperature is too warm and your CaptiveAire Fans aren't cooling, the fan activation temperature might be set too high; try reducing it. Also, ensure the fan is spinning counter-clockwise when viewed from the floor in cooling mode. Finally, make sure equipment or storage items aren't blocking the airstream under the fan.
Why is my CaptiveAire Fan in SYSTEM BYPASS mode?
If your CaptiveAire Fan is in SYSTEM BYPASS, it means that all fans are running at BMS speed because System Bypass has been turned on. You need to fix the reason why System Bypass was enabled and then turn system bypass off on the ECPM03 menu.
What does MODBUS FAULT EXPANSION BOARD mean for CaptiveAire Fan?
If you're getting a MODBUS FAULT related to the expansion board on your CaptiveAire Fan, it means the expansion board isn't connected or powered properly. Keep in mind that when more than 8 external sensors are used, an expansion board is required to be installed, powered, and configured.
What causes a MODBUS FAULT HMI XX error on a CaptiveAire Fan?
If you're experiencing a MODBUS FAULT on the HMI of your CaptiveAire Fan, it indicates that the HMI is either not connected or assigned incorrectly. Install the HMI or change the HMI address using the bottom 2 buttons on the HMI to resolve this issue.
What to do if there is a MODBUS FAULT FAN XX on my CaptiveAire Fan?
If you encounter a MODBUS FAULT on your CaptiveAire Fan, it could be due to the VFD not being connected or assigned incorrectly. To resolve this, install the VFD or change the VFD address using P410 and P403 on the VFD.
