    What to do if MAC3 HydroController HCW-MM Standard Inverter shows 'No water'?
    • N
      Nicholas JohnsonAug 17, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter displays a 'No water' error, it indicates a lack of water. The system automatically attempts to reset, but if these attempts fail, the system may become permanently blocked. First, ensure there is water available. For the HCW model, inspect the check valve. Reset the pump priming function and ensure the filter isn't blocked. If the problem persists, disconnect and then reconnect the power supply.

    What to do if MAC3 Inverter shows 'ShortC. f-f-gnd'?
    • D
      danielstanleyAug 19, 2025
      If your MAC3 Inverter displays 'ShortC. f-f-gnd', it means a Phase-Phase or Phase-Ground short circuit has been detected. The system automatically attempts to resolve this, but if it fails multiple times, it will lock. To fix this, eliminate the cause of the short circuit, verify the motor's absorption, and try power cycling the device.

    What causes high temperature on MAC3 HydroController HCW-MM Standard Inverter?
    • S
      scottromanAug 22, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter shows 'High temperature', it means the water temperature is above 75°C. This will automatically reset when the temperature drops below 60°C. Ensure the incoming water temperature is within the product specifications. For the HCA model, check the cooling fan's functionality and restore the correct pump priming action.

    Why is my MAC3 HydroController HCW-MM Standard Inverter I2t protected?
    • E
      Elizabeth DayAug 25, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter is 'I2t protected', it indicates excessive power consumption. Ensure the pump is operating within the manufacturer's specified conditions and that there are no impeller friction or locking issues. You may also need to adjust the pick current value on parameter 54.

    How to fix Imax Fault on MAC3 HydroController HCW-MM Standard Inverter?
    • D
      Diana MooreAug 27, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter displays 'Imax Fault', it signifies an overcurrent in the pump. Check the current measurement output parameter to "LoadCurrent " and set the proper parameter “Max.MotorCurrent ". Also, verify that the pump is used under the conditions prescribed by its manufacturer and ensure there are no friction or locking issues with the impeller.

    What causes high voltage on MAC3 HydroController HCW-MM Standard?
    • A
      Amanda BakerAug 30, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter displays 'High voltage', it means the power voltage measured is too high (over 500 Vac and 270 Vac vers. MM/MT). Check the wiring system and set the values in the range prescribed for the HC.

    What to do if MAC3 HydroController HCW-MM Standard Inverter shows 'Motor Unconnected'?
    • J
      Jamie MoodySep 2, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter displays 'Motor Unconnected', it means the pump isn’t connected to the inverter. Check that the power output cable from the inverter is properly connected to the pump.

    Why is my MAC3 Inverter showing low voltage?
    • P
      pricejosephSep 5, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter displays 'Low Voltage', it indicates that the power voltage measured is too low (less than 300 Vac vers TT and 170 Vac vers MM/MT). Check the electric system and reset the values to within the range prescribed for the HC.

    What does Low CosPhi mean on MAC3 Inverter?
    • K
      Katrina MillerSep 7, 2025
      If the MAC3 Inverter displays 'Low CosPhi', the inverter detects a lower cosphi value than the value set at parameter COSPHI Min. Check for water presence. Set the value at parameter Cosphi Min Offset, to determine the correct value of COSPHI Min.

    How to remove Short Circ.Block from MAC3 Inverter?
    • H
      hernandezdouglasSep 10, 2025
      To remove lock status of MAC3 Inverter set to zero the number of shortcircuit parameter “Tot.ShortC.Done “. If the problem persists try to reset the drive unplugging the pump otherwise you have to replace the drive.
