What does the 'PT100' error signify on my Emotron Inverter?
- J
  Jonathan PerezSep 10, 2025
  If your Emotron Inverter displays 'PT100', it means the motor PT100 elements have exceeded the maximum level. This is only applicable if the PTC/PT100 option board is in use. To fix this: * Check for mechanical overload on the motor or machinery. * Check the motor cooling system. * Ensure a self-cooled motor isn't under too high a load at low speed. Alternatively, set PT100 to OFF.

Why is my Emotron Inverter showing 'Over temp'?
- I
  ijohnsAug 23, 2025
  If your Emotron Inverter displays 'Over temp', it indicates that the heatsink temperature is too high. This can be due to: * High ambient temperature. * Insufficient cooling. * Excessive current. * Blocked or stuffed fans. To fix this, check the VSD cabinet's cooling, ensure the fans are working correctly, verify the VSD and motor ratings, and clean the fans.

What causes 'Under voltage' on my Emotron Inverter?
- D
  Debra AlvarezAug 25, 2025
  If the Emotron Inverter displays 'Under voltage', it signifies a low DC Link voltage. This can happen because of: * Too low or no supply voltage. * Mains voltage dip due to starting other major power-consuming machines on the same line. To address this, ensure all three phases are properly connected and tightened, verify the mains supply voltage is within the VSD's limits, and consider using other mains supply lines or activating the low voltage override function [421].

How to fix 'Over volt D(eceleration)' on Emotron Inverter?
- L
  Lisa PierceAug 27, 2025
  If your Emotron Inverter shows 'Over volt D(eceleration)', it means the DC Link voltage is too high. This is often due to: * Too short deceleration time. * Too small brake resistor or a malfunctioning brake chopper. To resolve this, increase the deceleration time and check the dimensions and functionality of the brake resistor and brake chopper, if one is used.

What does 'Motor lost' mean on my Emotron Inverter?
- J
  James JohnsonAug 27, 2025
  If the Emotron Inverter displays 'Motor lost', it indicates a phase loss or significant imbalance on the motor phases. To resolve this: * Check the motor voltage on all phases. * Check for loose or poor motor cable connections. If the connections are okay, contact your supplier or set the motor lost alarm to OFF.

How to resolve 'Over volt (Mains)' error on Emotron Inverter?
- J
  Joshua HansenAug 29, 2025
  If the Emotron Inverter displays 'Over volt (Mains)', it indicates that the DC Link voltage is too high due to an excessive mains voltage. To fix this, check the main supply voltage and try using alternative main supply lines to avoid interference.

What does 'Pump' mean on my Emotron Inverter?
- A
  Ana CruzSep 18, 2025
  If your Emotron Inverter displays 'Pump', it means that no master pump can be selected due to an error in feedback signaling. This is only used in Pump Control. Check the cables and wiring for pump feedback signals and the settings related to the pump feedback digital inputs.

What does 'Mon MaxAlarm' mean on my Emotron Inverter?
- C
  Crystal LiSep 12, 2025
  If the Emotron Inverter displays 'Mon MaxAlarm', it indicates that the maximum alarm level (overload) has been reached. Check the load condition of the machine and the monitor setting in section 11.6, page 127.

What does 'Ext trip' mean on my Emotron Inverter?
- C
  corygraySep 8, 2025
  If your Emotron Inverter displays 'Ext trip', it indicates that an external input (DigIn 1-8) is active, possibly due to an active low function on the input. To resolve this, check the equipment initiating the external input and the programming of the digital inputs DigIn 1-8.

What does the 'PTC' error mean on my Emotron Inverter?
- P
  priscillatuckerSep 5, 2025
  If your Emotron Inverter displays 'PTC', the motor thermistor (PTC) has exceeded the maximum level. This is only valid if the PTC/PT100 option board is used. To resolve this: * Check for mechanical overload on the motor or machinery. * Check the motor cooling system. * Ensure a self-cooled motor isn't under too high a load at low speed. Alternatively, set PTC, menu [234] to OFF.
