Why does the oil in my LEYBOLD Water Pump get too dark?
- K
  Keith FletcherAug 31, 2025
  If the oil in your LEYBOLD Water Pump gets too dark, it may be because the oil has been used up, in which case you should exchange the oil. It could also be because the pump is getting too hot. Refer to the troubleshooting steps for 'Pump gets too hot,' and after resolving that issue, exchange the oil.

What causes a ground fault in LEYBOLD Water Pump?
- M
  Marissa RamirezSep 3, 2025
  If you encounter a 'Ground Fault' with your LEYBOLD Water Pump, it could be due to: * Ground leakage current exceeding 50% of the frequency converter's rated output current: Check the output wiring and the motor for short circuits or broken insulation, and replace any broken parts. * Broken cable or motor insulation: Reduce the carrier frequency.

How to fix 'Fault Check the upper controller program' on LEYBOLD Water Pump?
- K
  Kristin YatesSep 7, 2025
  To address the 'Fault Check the upper controller program' error with your LEYBOLD Water Pump: * If a forward and reverse command were input simultaneously for longer than 500 ms: Check the sequence and ensure that the forward and reverse inputs are not set at the same time. * If an external fault was triggered by an external device via one of the digital inputs S1 to S3: Identify why the device tripped the EF, remove the cause, and reset the fault.
