6. Troubleshooting
No. Description Warning Alarm Trip Lock Cause of Problem
2 Live zero error X X   Signal on terminal 53 or 60 is less than 50% of value set in par. 6-10, 6-12 and 6-22.
4
Mains phase loss
1)
X X X Missing phase on supply side, or too high voltage imbalance. Check supply voltage.
7
DC over voltage
1)
X X   Intermediate circuit voltage exceeds limit.
8
DC under voltage
1)
X X   Intermediate circuit voltage drops below “voltage warning low” limit.
9 Inverter overloaded X X   More than 100% load for too long.
10 Motor ETR over temperature X X   Motor is too hot due to more than 100% load for too long.
11 Motor thermistor over temperature X X   Thermistor or thermistor connection is disconnected.
12 Torque limit   X   Torque exceeds value set in either par. 4-16 or 4-17.
13 Over Current X X X Inverter peak current limit is exceeded.
14 Earth fault   X X Discharge from output phases to ground.
16 Short Circuit   X X Short-circuit in motor or on motor terminals.
17 Control word timeout X X   No communication to frequency converter.
25 Brake resistor short-circuited   X X Brake resistor is short-circuited, thus brake function is disconnected.
27 Brake chopper short-circuited   X X Brake transistor is short-circuited, thus brake function is disconnected.
28 Brake check   X   Brake resistor is not connected/working
29 Power board over temp X X X Heat-sink cut-out temperature has been reached.
30 Motor phase U missing   X X Motor phase U is missing. Check the phase.
31 Motor phase V missing   X X Motor phase V is missing. Check the phase.
32 Motor phase W missing   X X Motor phase W is missing. Check the phase.
38 Internal fault   X X Contact local Danfoss supplier.
47 Control Voltage Fault X X X 24 V DC may be overloaded.
51 AMT check U
nom
 and I
nom
  X   Wrong setting for motor voltage, motor current and motor voltage.
52 AMT low I
nom
  X   Motor current is too low. Check settings.
59 Current limit X     VLT overload.
63 Mechanical Brake Low   X   Actual motor current has not exceeded “release brake” current within “start delay” time window.
80
Drive Initialised to Default Value   X   All parameter settings are initialized to default settings.
1)
 These faults may be caused by mains distortions. Installing Danfoss Line Filter
may rectify this problem.
