What does motor thermal overload (I2t) mean on a Grundfos Water Pump?
If the Grundfos Water Pump drive reports a motor thermal overload, it means the drive has been delivering more than 100% of the value in P-08* for an extended period to protect the motor from damage.
What causes an output over current in a Grundfos MP 1 / Redi-Flo2?
If your Grundfos Water Pump displays an output over current error, it indicates an instantaneous over current on the drive output, often caused by excess load or shock load on the motor.
Why is there an under voltage on the DC bus of my Grundfos MP 1 / Redi-Flo2 Water Pump?
If your Grundfos Water Pump shows an under voltage on the DC bus, it could be due to a low incoming supply voltage. This often happens when the power is disconnected. However, if it occurs while running, check the incoming power supply voltage and all components in the power feed line to the drive.
